"Get Organized" Retreat in September

Susan (my SIL) and I were given the sweet opportunity to research a place for our first ever retreat for Power of Moms. Best of all Saren and April will be coming to it to present and to bask in their wealth of knowledge and goodness.

We were going back and forth on locations for about 1.5 months. But nothing was feeling quite right about some of the spots that we had picked out. Plus we needed to find a location for at least 30 women. Susan took the grunt of all the work with phone calls she put in too much time but learned alot about herself and just knowing the right questions to ask.

Ideally the best suitable location would be to rent out a home but we could only find 3 homes that would fit that criteria. We found some great cabin type feel homes in Lake Arrowhead that had treehouses and bunk beds. Then we went to the beach and found an ideal one in Del Mar but they never responded to my inquiry. Too bad its there loss. Finally our last beach house we went to look at was just way too small but said it could sleep 30 but very cozy.

So we went back to the drawing board and just went to the typical hotel style retreat. We came across Laguna Cliffs Marriott in Dana Point and looked at their website and just "assumed" they were over our budget. But we learned quick not to make a quick judgment because Jennifer who we are working with is awesome.

She grasped on to who we are as an organization and being a mom herself just feel in love with the idea. So she has pulled strings for us to come and to host our event at her hotel.

It has been quite the experience and I am ready to take on many more like this and to learn to ask and not to assume.

So with that said...... click here to attend.

Come to our RETREAT in September. You will not be disappointed and I know that your husband will thank you for coming too because you will come back fired up and motivated to conquer your fears. Well that's what it did for me but each of us is different and we might take away something else but at least we are trying.
