What is The Inner Piece™ Retreat?
It’s a small, all-inclusive weekend retreat designed for women ages twenty-five (25) and older — without spiritual practices, rituals, themes, or therapy elements. The focus is on rest, comfortability, and a place to build genuine friendships and community. Think of it like a long sleepover involving shared activities, guided crafts, and group time, with plenty of time and space to relax on your own as well.
Who is this retreat a good fit for?

-
Enjoy shared time crafting and making new friends
-
Are empy-nesters transitioning into a new season of life
-
Crave understanding and support from other women who get it

Will we know what meals will be served ahead of time?
Yes. A full meal overview will be shared more than 30 days before the retreat so you know what to expect and can plan accordingly. Meals will be balanced and filling, featuring lean, satisfying proteins, fresh fruits & vegetables, familiar sides, and a dessert each evening.
Is it okay to come alone and not know anyone?
Yes. You don’t need to come with anyone, and many guests will arrive on their own. The weekend is designed to feel welcoming without requiring you to “jump in” socially right away. You’re also welcome to attend alongside a friend or family member who has their own registered spot.
Do I have to participate in everything?
No. Everything offered throughout the weekend is optional, and you’re welcome to join in as much or as little as you’d like. There’s no expectation to be outgoing, to share personal details, or to participate in everything. You’re welcome to take the weekend at your own pace and engage in ways that feel comfortable for you.
