It can be hard to invest money into a retreat when your mind is telling you, ‘I could go on a holiday for this money,’ ‘Is it really worth it?’ etc… but Carla wanted to share her experience at the retreat she attended in Wales over the weekend and the changes she’ll be making in her life as a result of this.
Carla FINALLY had a much-needed cry, had time to process the grief that was being held in her body, and gave herself space to reflect on her career, relationships, and how she was living day to day.
So if you’ve been wondering what really happens on a retreat and if it’s really worth it, give this episode a listen.
