AWCC Stronger Together: Host Your First Retreat
For coaches who are curious about retreats but aren't sure where to start.
Thinking about hosting your first retreat but not sure where to begin? Wondering how much time it takes, how to price it, or whether it's a worthwhile addition to your coaching business?
In this workshop, I'll share the practical steps behind planning and leading a retreat, from pricing and marketing to designing the participant experience and managing risk. You'll get an honest look at the work that happens before the retreat begins, common mistakes to avoid, and lessons learned from hosting retreats.
