The Hive Women's Retreat
The Hive Women’s Retreat September 18-20, 2015 The Toll House, Boonville, CA
We’re bringing together fifteen extraordinary female leaders and changemakers for a weekend of connection, inspiration, and redirection. How alive, connected, and on course are you feeling in your work and life lately? If you’re like many extraordinary female leaders and changemakers, you might have a slight feeling of being worn out, isolated, or even on the wrong track. The Hive Women’s Retreat is a chance to reflect and connect deeply with other women, age 21-35, who are walking a similar path. Through the program content you’ll have a chance to gain clarity on what lights you up personally and professionally, tap into the confidence you need to take the next big step, and form a supportive community of allies and friends who will help keep you accountable as you move forward. The retreat will take place in the beautiful Anderson Valley, 2.5 hours north of San Francisco. Participants will meet at a central location in San Francisco at 10 a.m. on Friday, September 18th and carpool together to the retreat site. During the weekend we’ll be staying in a lovely historic home in a relaxing natural setting, and we’ll enjoy time for both individual reflection and group sessions. We will return to the city by 5 p.m. on Sunday, September 20th.
Cost: $475
(Includes two nights accommodation, meals, activities, and facilitated program)
