“I’ve attended two retreats with Grow and Gather and both were absolutely fantastic. The hosts are professional, knowledgeable and think of every detail to make the retreat unique for each individual. The food is delicious and the activities are so thoughtfully planned and facilitated.” – Jenna

★★★★★

“The entire weekend was magical. I was able to express my thoughts, fears, and frustrations without feeling judged or alone. Sharing my challenges and connecting with others, whether they had similar experiences or not, each woman was there to lend a shoulder or an ear. If you’re a skeptic, my advice is to give it a try. You’ll find clarity in your thoughts, form meaningful connections, and create bonds with other women that can change your life.” – Natalie
