“One of the deepest longings of the human soul is to be seen.” - John O’Donohue
It can be so easy to forget that we are more than our personality, roles, titles, and ego identity. We have spent much of our lives crafting the persona we take out into the world. We’ve lost connection to the deeper part of who we are — our true self, our soul. Yet, it’s this part of us that brings vitality and a sense of aliveness to our tired mind and body. In this retreat, Maddy and Kelley serve as your guides to help you connect with your deeper self. You’ll be warmly welcomed into an intimate group of women, experience forest bathing on hikes, yoga and meditation while enjoying delicious food and soul stirring conversations. You will leave feeling more connected to your deeper self with an experience of inner peace, aliveness and joy.

FAQ
Q: What fitness level do I need to have?
A: For the hikes, if you can walk on uneven terrain for 3-5 miles, going at your own pace, with pauses for rest and water, you’ll be fine! The yoga is beginner friendly, slow flow style and modifications can be done as your body needs.
Q: It’s just me, will that be awkward?
A: Not at all! We are all about solo travel and know how to create a welcoming experience for all! We will pair you with another solo traveler for your overnight accommodation, and you’ll have a new buddy!
Q: I’m coming with a friend, can we request shared accommodation?
A: Yes, and we will do our very best to arrange that. After registering, email Kelley at coach@kelleydoyle.com with your request. We cannot guarantee it and will notify you if we cannot accommodate the request.
Q: What meals are included? And, can you accommodate dietary restrictions?
A: This retreat will includes 2 breakfasts, 1 lunch and 2 dinners. If we know about your dietary restrictions in advance we can provide menu alternate options. In your pre-retreat questionnaire we ask about food allergies and dietary restrictions. This feedback will help us customize all meals on retreat. In addition, you have the option to bring your own snacks and specialty food and store them in either your cabin or the community barn kitchen.
Q: What should I bring?
A: You will receive a packing list ahead of retreat with everything you need to bring.
Q: What is the age range of women attending this retreat?
A: We find that our retreats bring together a diverse group of like-minded women. It's less about age and more about mindset. The women who come on retreat with us vary in age, but all have in common a desire to step away from their busy lives, slow down, and reconnect with their true self.
Q: What if I need to cancel?
A: The retreat tickets are non-refundable. We aim to give our retreat participants an enjoyable and memorable, life-changing experience you will not want to miss!
