Dive deep into one to one coaching sessions with two experienced life-coaches
Do you ever feel overwhelmed, “stuck” and worried about what’s next in your life?
Can you imagine feeling passionate, excited and vital again?
McMinnville in the heart of Yamhill County, Oregon is a perfect place to unplug and reconnect with yourself.
Personal coaching is so much more powerful and sustainable when it’s not squeezed into your weekly calendar.
Concentrating on daily in-depth personal work while feeling rested, relaxed, and able to focus on the questions you come up with, will help you achieve more personal development in a few days than in months of weekly counseling sessions.
Our one-on-one retreat is “all about you” – you’ll get the luxury of more than 72 hours focussing just on YOU, with as much personal life-coaching sessions you need.
Your challenges, needs, and transitions are the focus of our attention. As you settle into the life-coaching retreat process with us, you will begin finding new ways to sustain changes that enhance you and your well-being and contentment.
Relax into a balance of personal exploration work, quiet time, and activities that serve your mind, body, and spirit. Yoga sessions as well as a one hour massage are optional.
We believe in each person’s innate value, potential, and purpose and are dedicated to creating a safe environment for you to nourish and flourish!
Together, let’s discover and add more of whatever is needed to enrich your life as you progress through your changes, challenges, and transitions!
By the end of this retreat, you will identify patterns that drain you, let go of unwanted burdens and obligations, gain new perspectives about yourself, unapologetically claim your needs, desires, and activities that nourish and energize you, so you can create a lifestyle that supports what’s best for the next phase of your life!

Non-refundable deposit $500
Our non-traditional and creative coaching styles are mostly interactive exercises that we use to allow you to explore a concept of feeling more deeply than in a typical “coaching conversation.”
We enjoy making the awareness process provocative, fun, and slightly different from usual. We employ your creativity in looking at possibilities and making decisions–, helping you out of the ruts of circular thinking and being.
Our passion, our binational teamwork, and our personalities make us unique and dynamic facilitators. What separates us from many other coaches, is our depth and non-traditional toolbox of goodies.
We have been listening, supporting, and “stoking your fire” as counselors, coaches, and teachers over many years and endless conversations with women.
As a coaching team, our backgrounds, life and work experiences, as well as our cultural and language differences combine into our unique style of work together.
