Testimonials

“We were strangers for only the first ten minutes. After that, all the goodness that Encore Retreats has to offer came flowing into the room. Focused workshops on defining our best life, insightful discussions with our new confidants, guided hikes and yoga, intentional quiet time and gourmet meals with vigorous conversation, made the four-day retreat fly by. I enjoyed the all-inclusive pricing so that all decisions were made before even arriving. Thank you, Jennifer and Lisa, for the opportunity to fully indulge.” ~ J.S.

I was nervous at first because I hadn't been to a retreat before and didn't know what to expect, but after the first night, I was 100% committed to getting everything I could from the program. It gave me the opportunity to meet a range of diverse women who came together for different reasons, at different points in their lives.  I learned something from each one which allowed me to learn more about myself.  The honesty and trust among the group was refreshing and allowed us to feel we were in a safe place, and could be authentic with ourselves and with each other. Jen and Lisa are an amazing team. They work in tandem to bring synchronicity to the program, each having different strengths that they share. ~J.M.

“I wasn’t sure I could take the time to join this retreat but I am so glad I did. In the midst of a busy life, I sometimes start to lose track of why I am doing what I am doing. I have a sense that something might be missing, but I’m not sure what. It often seems easier to just keep moving and not address what is lying underneath everything. This retreat helped me open up and look hard at what was important, what was missing, and how to rethink the next stage of my life. Lisa and Jennifer guided a group of women who had never met before through 4 amazing days of self discovery. We also had incredible culinary experiences and gorgeous hikes along the way. I still tell friends about what I learned about myself at this retreat. Our group of 7 women text regularly, giving each other support and cheering each other on as we take our next steps toward better, more confident lives post-retreat.” ~H.B.

“This retreat is perfect for a woman who is finding herself trying to set a direction for the next phase of her life. It could be someone who’s tired of her work and wants something new or has children moving on to a new phase in their lives and wants to re-enter the workforce/start a business. Time to reflect on who she is and what experiences give her joy is invaluable to this process. This retreat offers all that and more.” ~C.M.

“Feel busy but not fulfilled? This transformative retreat provides effective tools and an action plan to assess where you are NOW and how to begin living the meaningful life you deserve. I cannot say enough about the healing power of being open and vulnerable in the presence of extraordinary women who support and care for your growth.” ~S.V.

“I walked away from the retreat with a different perspective on a weight that I have been carrying for a few years. I have a renewed sense of energy to take on an exciting challenge…a purposeful adventure.” ~S.B.

Just wanted to take a moment to pause and thank you for all the thoughtfulness that went into planning, hosting, and keeping the connections alive after the Retreat. The experience was so personal and exceeded all my expectations of having an impact that I would actually take home and apply immediately.” ~G.N.
