Lead Your Own Joy-Based Retreats Course
Are you ready to travel the world, transform lives and make money? I will show you how to do it with EASE and JOY!
ENROLL TODAYA Letter from Laura
(who loves to make big things EASY)
Hi!
Tell me:
Do you love to travel?
Do you love to share the goodness of life with others?
Do you want to make more money?
If you answered a happy YES to these questions, I have some big news for you: you can accomplish all of these at the same time by leading your own Joy-Based Retreats!!!
Whether for a weekend across town or 10 days in the tropics. And whether you teach or you facilitate someone else’s teaching.
I came upon the idea of Retreats by accident - as if there was such a thing - and armed with a couple of friends and a big batch of courage, I decided to go for it. This was in January 2013 and we were on our way to a small fishing village in Mexico to lead our very first Retreat.
Several years and many, many successful Retreats later, in France, Italy, the United States and Mexico, I have decided to create a complete A to Z course to teach other people how to do just that, using the easy, no-stress system I still use today. In my online course “Lead Your Own Joy-Based Retreats™!” I am taking the guesswork out of the process, I am sharing all my tools, my years of experience, and more than anything, I am busting the myth that “oh, this sounds really complicated.” It’s not.
Packaged very simply and easy to digest, I am giving you my most powerful tools, my own mindset strategy, and even a wee bit of magic to take you from dreaming of the possibilities to boarding that plane and making it real! When I first started, I knew nothing about how to do this, but you? You are going to know a whole bunch very, very soon.
You CAN do it! Really, truly you can do it. With EASE and with JOY, too. I am going to show you how.
XOXO

"I just finished the course. It is absolutely wonderful in content, well organized, and also visually stunning! The audio course was easy to follow and I was able to take notes because it was a good pace, and had a of of information in a condensed amount of time. Additionally, as a hard copy type person who likes to doodle, the workbooks are a perfect complement. And they are so beautiful, too. The resources you gave us with the worksheets and templates are the icing on the cake. After taking the course, I have a renewed sense of excitement and confidence to start considering a local weekend offering. And also having the FB group in place is reassuring. Thank you!"

devoured it this weekend. As an educator, I really appreciated your

In this course, I am giving you every single little thing I have learned about leading Retreats with a minimum amount of stress and a maximum amount of joy. I am holding nothing back; you get it all. Now, can I guarantee that you are going to take my course and become an instantly wealthy and wildly happy Retreat leader? I cannot. This is not a get rich quick program. In fact, I cannot guarantee that you will ever lead your own Retreat, nor make any money at all this way. Why? Because while I can tell you everything I know and make it simple, easy, and even hold your hand while you do it, what you do with it is fully up to you. This is an invitation, a powerful step-by-step tool to for you to add your own brand of magic, focus and excitement, and turn them into something beautiful that is going to add much goodness to the world. It's important for me to say that, so I do. And I am excited for you.
