WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU DID SOMETHING JUST FOR YOU?

Not for your family. Not for work. Not to catch up on your never-ending to-do list.

Just a day to slow down, breathe, move, learn, laugh, and reconnect with yourself.

We're bringing two worlds together for a special one-day retreat designed to help women step away from the everyday hustle and make space for what matters most.

Join Kris Krause and Melissa Ketchum for a day of wellness, personal growth, meaningful conversations, connection, great food, and a little fun!

Because sometimes, what we need most is permission to pause and remember that we matter, too.

WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT?

MOVEMENT & WELLNESS

Reconnect with your body, enjoy movement, and explore practical ways to support your overall well-being.

PERSONAL GROWTH & SELF-DISCOVERY

Participate in engaging workshops and meaningful conversations designed to encourage reflection, fresh perspectives, and opportunities for growth.

TIME TO SLOW DOWN

Step away from the demands of everyday life and make room to reflect on what you need in this season of life.

GOOD FOOD & GREAT COMPANY

Enjoy delicious catered food from Wooden Spoon, with gluten-free options available. Take time to relax, share a meal, and connect with other women.

CONNECTION, LAUGHTER & FUN

Meet new women, share stories, enjoy meaningful conversations, and remember that personal growth doesn't have to be serious all day!

This is a day to show up as you are. No pressure to have everything figured out. No expectations to be anyone other than yourself.

Come on your own or invite a friend!

YOUR REMINDER TO MAKE SPACE FOR YOU

You don't have to wait until everything else is taken care of.

You don't have to earn rest.

And you don't have to feel guilty about investing in yourself.

You deserve time to learn, grow, connect, laugh, and enjoy life along the way.

Sometimes, giving yourself one day can be the beginning of something meaningful.

Join us for a day of movement, learning, nourishment, connection, and fun!

We can't wait to welcome you!

Kris Krause & Melissa Ketchum

A day to slow down. A space to reconnect. An experience just for you.
