Honestly?
It could change everything.

For most women, the daily grind can wear us thin. Throw in a creative business and loneliness and exhaustion seem to become a common thread in the challenges we face. We often hesitate at the idea of stepping away from our homes, responsibilities, or schedules, but what if you said "yes"? What if you set apart a handful of days to be reminded of just how talented, capable, worthy, and valued you are?

The mission is simple: create a safe space for creative christian women to be filled, experience connection and rest, and to be re-inspired in their business and home

"soul rest"?

While we do offer a general schedule of what/where breakfast and dinner will be and some pre-planned outings for shopping and exploring, you are always free to choose to stay in, order take out, or join the group! No shame, no obligation, no hurt feelings!

Whether you're an early bird or night owl, a nature trail walker or beachcomber, a shopaholic ready to scour the local boutiques or feeling the urge to curl up with a book - it's always up to you!

Attendees will enjoy a group mentoring session with Chloe as she shares her own story of beating burnout and the tools and strategies she uses daily to live clarity and intentionality.

"I believe escaping the clutches of overwhelm and achieving personal and professional fulfillment simultaneously is a possibility. I've lived through burnout. I know how hard it can be and I know it's not an easy journey, but there are tools you can use on your road to recovery."

Chloe believes designing a beautiful life begins with heartfelt intention. She encourages those around her to enjoy life like a fine art gallery: slowly, with emotion and purpose. Guiding you away from overwhelm and into living and working from a place of rest.

That's 3 breakfasts from my personal favorite local coffee shops and a group brunch out, 3 lunches from a variety of 30A faves from Seaside food trucks to delicious lunch spots, and 4 dinners: a "Pizza in Pajamas" party on our first night in (travel days should always end with pizza) and 3 dinners out to experience some of the best cuisine on the Emerald Coast!
Of course, you always have the flexibility to opt for an evening in, grab a lunch and head to the beach, or join the group and share a meal around the table.

Talk about treating yourself to an amazing experience!

It’s this magical blend of friendship, community, creative accountability, and youthfulness you kind of forgot about. Everyone is valued. No one is encouraged to tag along when all they want to do is rest. There isn’t this responsibility of having to be “ON”. You realize that you don’t have to perform. You don’t have to just go with the flow of everyone else’s demands or preferences . You get to make it your own.
It’s a soul rest. 

I loved that we were able to come together & share our stories - deep and impactful - rest together, explore, play and leave feeling filled. I truly felt like a highlight was the opportunity to come together but also have the freedom to each get out of the trip what we needed!
. . .
Thank you for the amazing opportunity make lifelong connections and come back to my family feeling refreshed and whole!

I was given so much more clarity about the way I need to walk in life. I’m loved, valued, seen, and God has qualified me for what He’s called me to do. I’m excited to step more fully into my purpose and be supported by my friends as I support them as well.
. . .
It’s hands down the best way to start a year! You will be loved on and poured into throughout the entire experience. It’s truly unmatched.

It was exactly what I needed. The perfect amount of rest and play, introverting and extroverting, work and just life. It was the refreshment my spirit was looking for after a long year of burnout and the loneliness that often comes along with entrepreneurship. Being with other creative Christian women made me feel seen, sparked my creativity and motivated me to make some changes that will serve my life, business and family in the future. I can't wait
to go back.

Whatever you need, whether it’s time to rest and refresh, people who are safe to connect and listen to, engage, laugh with, and encourage you, or the space to create and work on any ideas you’ve had but haven’t had the space to do so - this retreat is for any part of the flourishing cycle of rhythms of renewal (rest, restore, connect, create) that’s best for you to partake in right here and now.

Going on this trip was probably the best decision I could have made. I was nervous about going but am so grateful I did.
I came home rested and renewed in a way I didn't even know I needed. I will do my best to be able to attend every year. 

Kelli was amazing! She was the perfect host, knowing all the best places to go, restaurants to eat at, and had just a lovely presence about her making all feel welcome and loved.

It’s a true retreat and exactly what it says. I slept a lot but more so, my soul found rest and peace. We played morning to night and each individual there was similar but yet completely different. It’s a safe space to be exactly who you are. When I left I felt refreshed...and with a plan to move forward in business and personally!

I loved that it's very relaxed- there is a light framework but nothing is mandatory. You still get to decide what to engage in that's going to serve you best, whether it's relaxing on the couch, taking a bath, or going shopping. You create an experience where everyone gets to be their truest self!
