Our Retreat Pad

We will be staying in a large, 6-bedroom home, with two living spaces and a large, open kitchen. The house has plenty of space for us to meet together and spread out. The outside area has a hot-tub, a fire ring, and a large picnic table.

 We are only 25 minutes from the airport, which is close enough to get uber together. The house is centrally located, so if you want to explore all that Colorado has to offer, you can get there quickly. You have the most beautiful mountain range just 30 minutes away, art museums, a zoo, and so much more.

 We chose this type of space because it's great for connection and collaboration. This allows a degree of intimacy that fosters elevated levels of creativity. You will have full-time access to Dawn and Desiree for 4 days.

 The "Bed" situation is as follows:

➜  2 Upstairs King Bedrooms with sofa beds

➜  1 Downstairs King Bedroom

➜  1 Upstairs Bunk Room (2 Full Beds)

➜  2 Downstairs Bunk rooms (6 Twin Beds Total)


For the sake of less complication, we have a flat rate for all beds in shared spaces and one rate for those that want their own room. If you do not want a bunk bed, you can reserve a King Bed-Shared (with an old or new friend). We do not expect to be in the bedrooms very much, so it really is for resting and sleeping. Your hosts are pretty active and this retreat is loaded with learning, movement, and play.

Your Hosts

We hope you say "YES" to elevating your business!

We know exactly what it's like to have a dream and bust through the fears to make it happen. It's hard work and we want to help. We have experience, content and tips to share! Why recreate the wheel? This CE retreat will be an investment in your future and your business. It will have ROI.

So we actually met on another retreat. Our common friend thought we should collaborate and introduced us to one another as "you're both amazing retreaters". We began talking about our experiences leading retreats and had the idea of hosting an event where "retreaters" could come together and talk about their experiences. In developing this retreat, we decided to help anyone that needs help, freshman and sophmores. We noticed we had a lot to offer! We are both energetic and driven women that believe in manifesting the life you want. Change is exciting and it needs to happen to grow! We want to help you make your dream a reality.
