APRIL 12 - 16, 2026 | AUSTIN, TEXAS | 20 SPOTS
THE REST BOLDLY
RETREAT
VISIONING | STRATEGY | DEEP WORK | RESTORATION
A 3-day integrative, intimate mastermind retreat for Catholic women leaders, founders, and business owners—longing for space to slow down, breathe, reflect, gain clarity, and be deeply held.
You're carrying so much. You pour into so many.
Now, it's your turn.
I am truly changed by my experience at the retreat...I think I'll be a completely different person in the next 6 months.
You are doing meaningful work.
Holy work. Necessary work. And, you're doing more than your fair share of it from a body and nervous system that never gets to truly rest.
You carry the home. The kids. The clients, finances, plans, ministries, businesses.
You carry vision, responsibility, and the emotional needs of others.
And somewhere along the way, operating outside your capacity became normal.
Your body holds tension. Your mind has a hard time shutting off. There's always more to do.
You've tried buckling down. Working harder. Pushing through. Waiting for the next break, the next season, the next chance to get some breathing room.
But you need (and are more than ready for) a deeper, different kind of rest.
It's time for a sacred interruption.
The Rest Boldly Retreat is your space to breathe deeply.
To come as you are...and be restored.
A break from being "on" all the time.
To pause and reorient to what truly matters...to process, let go of what's no longer serving you, and release the heavy load.
To enter into the deep, honest work while being fully supported...to dream again, and reignite the flame. To quiet all the noise...and rest long enough to hear what God is really asking of you next.
Clarity, direction, aligned decisions, intentional design...but not from pressure or rush.
Instead, from and through rest first.
(Go ahead love, drop those shoulders. Lean into the full-body sigh. This is long overdue. 💙)
This is the space where your next season, and level of business or mission growth begins.

The Retreat Experience
Together we'll weave:
🌿 VISIONING & STRATEGY
Clarity for your next chapter—time to zoom out of the weeds and see the big picture again. Practical discernment, frameworks and guidance for your business, leadership, and the direction you're being called next.
🌿 DEEP INNER WORK
Space to be held and supported through nervous system regulation, somatic practices, parts work, and healing from hustle or burnout...all in a Christ-centered environment. A place to be seen, heard, and met with care in the tender spaces.
🌿 INTEGRATION
We'll help you connect the dots between internal awareness, movements and shifts, and the external practicals—whether that's more sustainable daily rhythms, strategy, key decisions, business scaling or team growth.
🌿 REST & RENEWAL
Prayer, journaling, abundant reflection space, play, laughter, and connection time to listen, share, process, and receive in community of women who just get it and get you.
Each day will hold you in a spacious, embodied rhythm...
✨️ Where rest and work are no longer at odds, but integrated
✨️ Where renewed vision and clarity is restored, not from doing more, but from creating space to listen
✨️ Where your body, mind, and soul can finally be on the same page

You Will Leave This Retreat With...
A clearer vision of what's next. In both work and life, and aligned with how you actually want to live, lead, and serve in this next season—not just what's expected of you.
A release of what no longer belongs, and burdens you were never meant to carry. Guilt, shame, and the pressure to prove, please, perform, or keep up. You'll be invited to name it, feel it, and begin to let it go—in the safety of a space that can hold it all.
Renewed connection to God, your calling, and your deeper "why". Beyond the hustle. Beyond the metrics. Beyond the next item on your to-do-list.
Practical clarity around what needs to change. How your business, ministry, or mission may need to shift—not to stretch you thinner, but to support your actual capacity. A strategy that honors your humanity.
A regulated nervous system and a rested body. You'll feel the difference -- a loosening in your chest, deeper breaths, a heart less guarded, a soul less weary, and a body and mind that feels safer to live and be present in.
Support in the most tender places. For the parts that rarely get seen or heard -- the ones you've had to keep hidden, because everyone relies on you. We'll hold space for the healing that hasn't happened while you're busy leading everyone else.

What Women Experienced Last Time✨️
I received a lot more clarity on the bigger vision/mission. Boundaries, and the concept of asking for what I need and having an expectation that I am responsible for my own experience were very helpful.
I've often heard that as women, one of our gifts is to "anticipate the need" but it must be properly balanced with not being responsible for other people's emotions/experience. It was a good example of what it actually looks like to serve and anticipate needs well, without doing it from a place of people-pleasing.
Awareness of and healing of some deeper fears, and growing in confidence. I sense myself changed in zeal, confidence, and deeper trust in the Lord's gifts and promises.
Mindset - awareness that I have to think BIG in my professional life. Nervous system - it matters, and helps to be aware of the integration of body and mind. I need to learn to settle down my nervous system. Confidence - I deserve to be where I am at professionally, and embrace that with confidence and humility.
Taking time to dig out and name the emotional blocks in a supportive community with shared values was so valuable.
The flow of the retreat was PERFECT.
The free time allowed us to process and plan instead of being bombarded.
I am slowing down, even walking slower and more intentionally.
Taking care of my body and listening to what I am noticing, was something I never did. Now I am pausing and it is helping me move through the diffiult and tired times of the day.
I am not the same, which I will attest is a good thing.
I keep reflecting on that one exercise we did, to help move forward with things.
Excellent, worth the investment of time and money. You both did a tremendous job and I would come again. THANK YOU.
I felt like before I wouldn't even belong in this group, but by the end felt the Lord was speaking so clearly that He gave me the confidence.
All of it felt so supportive! I really felt so well-cared for on this retreat. There was so much intentionality.
Thank you so much for your love, gentleness, leadership, and expertise in making the retreat a spectacular and needed experience.
I believe this is the beginning of a shift in our culture that is so desperately needed.
I feel like I was just able to witness the two of you really show us what embodied leadership looks like.
From the very start with how you welcomed us, to the constant presence to the ways the Lord was moving, and seeing you be present to your own needs as the retreat went on. It was truly beautiful. I am just so grateful that I could be a part of it.
Mastermind Format & Rhythm
Pre-retreat reflection to bring deeper awareness and clarify your needs, goals, and what you want to receive
Intentional small-group masterminding, followed by personal integration and reflection
Facilitated sessions to deepen insight and translate awareness into action
Guided reflection, visioning, gentle strategic planning or goal-setting
A casual, relaxed environment (think comfy clothes, feet up on the couch, spreading out on the floor with big posters and colored pens, crayons, or even paint for visioning + strategy) designed to unlock creativity
Built-in rest, prayer, journaling, and connection
Time to enjoy nature and the property's amenities--lounging by the pool, soaking in the hot tub, hiking
You were never meant to carry it all alone.
Here you get to lay it down.
Let the tension soften. Let the striving cease. Let yourself receive.
To remember who you are beyond what you produce—while reigniting the "yes" still burning within you.
Because this mission is SO MUCH BIGGER than you.
And the Lord is preparing you to lead it differently in this next season.
The Space Your Whole Being is Longing For
Space to be human, to BE, and reconnect with who you are, beneath the pressure and pace you've been sustaining.
It's Time to Receive the Clarity, Breakthroughs, & Connection You've Been Craving
Each day will hold you in a spacious, embodied rhythm of rest, reflection, prayer, visioning and strategy--so clarity and alignment can emerge without pressure.
You don't have to show up any certain way.
It's time to pause the swirl, zoom out from all the details bogging you down, and remember why you're doing this work in the first place.
This is your space to slow down, to let your whole body and mind rest, play, and reconnect with God and your vision, dreams & desires for this next stage.
All of you is welcome here—and all of you will leave transformed, able to breathe again.
With an expanded capacity to receive and steward what God desires for you and those you serve.

Here for all the questions 💙
I’m not sure if I should choose All-Access or Standard. Can you help me discern?
Yes! Here are a few distinctions to help you feel out what’s most aligned.
All-Access may be the best fit for you if:
If reading this made your body exhale, All-Access is likely a supportive choice for you. (And if not, the Standard Retreat experience is still deeply rich, supportive, and spacious.)
The Standard Retreat experience may be the best fit for you if:
This option still offers a deeply rich, supportive, and spacious retreat experience, while allowing you to engage in a way that best fits your needs, financial investment, and capacity.
We’re here if you do want to talk anything through, and trust you to choose what’s right for you.
Who is this for?
This retreat is designed for Catholic women who are founders, CEOs, ministry leaders, or entrepreneurs who are navigating a growth or transition point in their business or leadership journey.
Women who are visionary, faithful, and committed—but often carrying more than you were meant to, with little space for yourself and what to shift into leading from peace and restoration instead of pressure and burnout.
Practically, you may be discerning "what’s next?" or "where do I go from here?"
You've got that gut feeling that the way you’ve been operating isn’t sustainable—but you’re scared to stop. You want clarity. You want to be poured into. You want to feel close to God again, and home within your body and mind again, and remember why you said yes to this mission in the first place.
Do I need to be Catholic to attend?
You do not need to be Catholic, but this retreat will be rooted in Catholic spirituality.
We will pray together, speak freely about Jesus, and offer an opportunity for Adoration if you choose. If you’re open and respectful of this rhythm and longing for a deeply Christ-centered experience, you are welcome here.
Can I coordinate accommodations with other attendees, if I'm booking a Standard Registration spot?
Yes. We’ll create a private WhatsApp group for retreat participants where you can connect and coordinate shared lodging if desired.
Can I bring a friend or team member?
Yes! You’re welcome to attend with a friend, co-founder, or team member. This would be a deeply supportive opportunity to reset together and individually. Let us know during the registration process, and we’ll do our best to pair you in the same room if you choose a shared All-Access option (or you're welcome to choose Standard registration and stay offsite in shared lodging together, of course).
I have dietary restrictions—can those be accommodated?
You’ll receive an intake during registration so we can understand any dietary needs and preferences. If we’re unable to accommodate a specific need, we’ll let you know in advance.
Is this is business, spiritual, or personal retreat?
It’s all three—integrated. This retreat is neither a rigid mastermind nor a silent retreat. It’s a curated, in-person experience of rest, prayer, visioning, and strategy—with space for whatever your body, business, and soul most need.
You’ll receive both strategic support and space to reconnect with God and yourself—held in rhythms of prayer, conversation, adoration, and restoration.
What kind of "inner work" should I expect? What modalities will be used?
We'll apply nervous system regulation, mind/body integration, calming breathing (breathwork is not one of our modalities), parts work, and body and emotional awareness. All rooted in Theology of the Body, and run through two different doctors of Catholic theology. We do have supporting documents for anyone with questions about the modalities of inner work, or anything they may not be familiar with, and we are happy to discuss anything together to make sure you feel comfortable in our approach.
This retreat isn’t just about strategizing what’s next. We'll do that too, but we'll keep the horse in front of the cart where it belongs. It’s crucial that, as leaders, we create space to release the deeper weight you’ve been carrying—the pressure, fear, shame, exhaustion, and expectations you may not even realize are driving your leadership.
We’ll hold space for emotional and spiritual processing, somatic and nervous system regulation, and identity-level shifts that allow you to lead from rest and wholeness again. This is holy ground for deep, lasting transformation—not just mindset work or strategy without integration, or just short-term relief.
I'm not good at slowing down. What if I struggle to "rest"?
That’s exactly why this retreat exists. Most women who come are high-capacity leaders who rarely create space to step back and tend to themselves. We gently guide you into rhythms of rest and clarity -- we'll help your body to remember. You don’t have to come “prepared”—just willing to be honest, open, and receptive.
Rest isn’t just another thing to do—it’s something we have to remember to BE in.
If the thought of slowing down makes you feel anxious or behind, that's a sign that you need this (or something like it). We won’t throw you into silence or solitude and leave you there. We’ll guide you—gently, graciously—into a different rhythm.
This retreat will hold you as you relearn what it means to be a human being, not a high-capacity doing-machine.
How many people will attend?
This is a high-touch, intimate experience, limited to 20 total women, with 3 facilitators: Anna, Megan, and Elissa.
You’ll be deeply seen, known, supported, and poured into—this is not a conference or large group retreat.
Can I bring a nursing baby?
Yes—nursing infants are welcome; we know you’re a package deal. 💗
Please reach out so we can discuss any additional support you might need. We had a baby on site last time, and have a couple along for the ride this round too!
What's your Refund Policy?
Due to the nature of this intimate retreat, all initial deposit payments (first $500) are non-refundable.
If something unexpected arises, you may transfer your spot to another woman business owner/leader with our approval. Please contact our team so we can support the transition.
Are future retreats planned if I can't make this one?
This is very likely the last opportunity for us to offer a 2026 retreat, as Megan’s family will be moving to Germany this summer, and Anna’s family plans to move on early in 2027.
Our next retreat likely won't be until Spring 2027, and may be somewhere in Europe 😉
A Final Note (with some tough love)...
This is not about getting away and rejuvenating just so you re-gain barely enough energy to go back and keep doing it the same way you were doing it before.
That would be a complete waste of both your time and money.
Truly "resting boldly" is about laying the foundation for doing it differently.
What does that mean?
👉 NOT teaching or preaching at you for 3 days. Teaching and talks makes up extremely little of this retreat.
👉 LOTS of space. As a leader, cultivating your self-trust and intuition is everything. We will hold the space for you to remember what that looks and feels like.
👉 Guiding you in how to rest in the ways you need. Note: good sleep is good rest, but there are other ways to rest that you may need a whole lot more
👉 PLAY. We have not, are not, and will not be asked by our loving God to co-create the kingdom here on Earth by caffeinated brute force, mission fatigue, and burnout. To do it differently, we need to re-learn creativity, curiosity, and playfulness.
ESPECIALLY if it's been years since you've taken a few days off to truly rest and be held and poured into, now is most certainly the time.

This retreat is a sacred investment in the woman behind the work; the vessel of grace through which the mission flows.
And she's worthy of care.
We can't wait to give you the biggest hug, and pour into you. 💙
