I've gone to both retreats, and I can't impress on everyone enough, that it is worth EVEYTHING and ANYTHING that you have to go through to get there.

The experience is individual to each and everyone of us, but from what I've learned from speaking to the women that went...here are some of the things that I've heard:

Simply Amazing

Incredible

Fantastic

Incredibly Moving

The Most Incredible Experience of My Life

Worth Everything I went through to get here

Retreat Attendees...could you add to this list? Thanks

I <3 this "bump" :D

deleted_user 02/06/2011

Can I just say, reading all the "bumped" posts alone bring back the warm fuzzies for me???

I swear, talking about the retreat and getting geared up for it reminds me of the excitement I used to have as a kid for Christmas!!!! I still love Christmas, still my fav holiday, but there's a lot of work involved in that too. This... I just get to show up and enjoy! And it IS like Christmas! I walked away with all sorts of wonderful things :)
