RETREAT OUTCOMES


It is our desire that when you walk away from JOURNEY to BE YOU that you are passionately clear about what’s important to you, are energized from the inside out, and eager to live into the essence of the fullness of YOU!  You have created heartfelt lifelong connections with your traveling companions.

“Find ecstasy in life; the mere sense of living in JOY is enough.”

- Emily Dickinson

Oh, the stories you will tell when you get back home!

C      Remember the night we shared from our hearts as we sat under the midnight sun?  

R      How about the feel of just relaxing into the essence of your soul...it seemed decadent to feel so relaxed, didn’t it? 

8      And the vistas that you woke up to every day; the wild flowers, the endless sun...all of the sensory moments that were so touching...so amazing...so perfect!    

J       Don’t forget to share about the relationships you made that were heartfelt and sure to be the start of some lifelong connections.  

O     However, you won’t have to tell the story of your “childlike spirit”…”She” will return with you!  Your friends and family will see a new lightness about you...it feels almost like the giddiness of falling in love (and the secret is that you have—with Yourself!)

Y      Personally, you will have reflected on all of the gifts in your life, visualized next steps your journey, have a focused plan, and more energy than you could ever imagine to make it happen!!    And, be sure to tell them that you have support for your ongoing journey because there are two coaching conversations with Carolyn Rowe after you return home.

Having found your Childlike Spirit and the Essence of YOU.
Can you imagine ever taking JUST a vacation again?

that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them."
