Discover How This Retreat Will Change You From Stuck To Spiritually Guided
1. Gain God-led Clarity on What's been Holding You Back.
You weren’t meant to carry confusion or doubt. In this sacred space, you’ll receive clarity, fresh perspective, and spirit-led guidance to live your life with intentional purpose. God has been preparing you for freedom, healing, and the next chapter of living fully alive.
2. Walk in Divine Favor, Rooted in Grace & Truth
Release the pressure to hustle, strive, or prove yourself. In the quiet beauty of Italy, you’ll be reminded that your worth isn’t earned—it’s received. As you align with God’s truth and grace, you’ll begin to walk in divine favor, experiencing lasting abundance and fulfillment from a place of peace, not performance.
3. Reclaim the Sacred Rhythm of Pleasure—in Life, in Business, and in Every Part of You
You weren’t created for a life that just looks good on the outside but feels empty within. This retreat is a space to slow down, breathe, and return to the beauty of living fully—where joy isn’t rushed, and success doesn’t require striving. You’ll rediscover the sacred rhythm of presence, purpose, and the kind of pleasure that flows from a soul at rest.
4. Stop Striving. Start Surrendering
If relationships, business, or finances have left you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck, it’s time to release the weight you were never meant to carry. During the retreat, you’ll be gently guided to rediscover the freedom that comes with surrender—letting go of what no longer serves you and opening your heart to the new opportunities God has already prepared. You’ll leave with fresh clarity, renewed confidence, and a deep peace, knowing you are fully supported every step of the way.
5. Surround Yourself with Life-Giving, Faith-Filled Community
Every woman holds a story that deserves to be heard. There’s something extraordinary that happens when women gather in person, away from life’s distractions, and open their hearts to true connection. In this retreat, you’ll find yourself embraced by life-giving friendships with women who share your journey—women who understand your longing for more and will celebrate you as you step into God’s purpose for your life. It’s your moment to breath-in and be surrounded by woman who will remain friends with you long after the retreat ends.

I have no words for how much all of you and this retreat have touched me. I pray blessings upon blessings for all of us. I can't wait to hear all of the amazing things you beautiful ladies conquer.
What an amazing weekend!! I am still processing all that took place. I asked my husband if he saw a glow around me, because I am not the same person I was when I left. Transformation took place and we are all the better for it. Thank you Kathy!!
My life has changed since meeting Kathy. I’ve learned so much about myself and God. She not only inspired me to be myself, but also helped me find the path to healing. I'm so VERY thankful!
Kathy I am totally sitting in soooo much gratitude this morning for all that you have given us this weekend ! You are a gift my friend and I am so thankful for you !!!
I will hold this special retreat in my heart forever .
I joined the retreat because I had spent so much of my life caring for others that I lost touch with myself. Kathy’s guided meditation led to a healing breakthrough I had been needing for decades. The women were so welcoming and non-judgmental—it was truly a life-changing experience.
There are no words to express my gratitude for what you gave to me this weekend. I feel beyond blessed to have had the experience. I could not have predicted the profound impact you and all the amazing women could have on me. Forever grateful.
I created this Retreat to empower faith based women to break free from patterns holding you back and step confidently into God’s plan for your life.
You will have guidance from me, helping you identify and overcome barriers that are holding you back.
Whether you’re just starting out or seeking growth, you’ll gain the tools and strategies needed to create a fulfilling, purpose-driven and thriving life.
