Read some snapshots of what our past retreaters have shared with us after their nourishing weekends!

“This was hands down one of the best, most healing experiences I’ve had in awhile. Hollis and Isabel are so talented at facilitating brave spaces and building community and connection over such a short period of time. I felt comfortable to be vulnerable with strangers within hours if not minutes due to Hollis’s and Isabel’s thoughtfulness around all aspects of the retreat.”

“Creative Women Retreats provided a beautifully intimate experience of renewal and care. They make you feel at home the moment you step into the retreat space. A cozy, warm, and inviting space helps you be at ease and get into fun, contemplation, and inner work. I felt very safe and nurtured, and I can’t wait to go again. The food was healthy and delicious. The facilitators have joy in what they do, and the joy spreads to all the attendees. An investment into yourself and a way to connect with others! 10/10”

“This was a terrific, rejuvenating experience upstate: filled with nature walks, nourishing + home-cooked meals, and an opportunity to reflect and go deeper on your own personal journey. Hollis and Isabel seem to anticipate the needs of the group before they’re even expressed, and they establish a really comfortable, non-judgmental environment for retreat attendees to fully relax + feel supported.”

“Isabel and Hollis are amazing facilitators who create a warm, inviting space to explore, repair and shore up strength and resilience.”

“The flexibility on programming and schedule was really appreciated, and allowed for a relaxing weekend. The ability to read the group + what they wanted was also incredibly impressive.”

“It was so great to be in community with other thoughtful and creative women. I feel like I had a breakthrough in how I relate to my own shadow, and I just feel so rejuvenated. Thank you!”
