Okay⦠this may trigger some people who have attempted retreats.
But Iām here to help (and share what Iāve seen.)
Over the years, Iāve watched SO many passionate coaches and healers try to host retreatsāonly to end up stuck, stressed, or seriously disappointed because of costly (but totally avoidable) mistakes.
Letās talk about the Top 5 Mistakes I see new retreat hosts make:
1ļøā£ No Structure or Guidance
A retreat isnāt just about what you’re teaching or how the pictures turn outāyour clients need to feel HELD and SAFE š.
Without a clear structure, your event can feel like a bunch of random activities, not a powerful experience.
2ļøā£ Choosing a Destination Retreat For Your First Retreat
Exotic locations sound fun⦠until youāre scrambling to fill expensive spots and stuck paying thousands (or canceling altogether).
Start local and build from thereāyouāll thank yourself later š.
3ļøā£ Weak (or Missing) Offer Pitch
You poured your heart into the event⦠but forgot to share your next step. Or you pitched and heard crickets š¦.
This comes down to having a clear call to action and believing in the transformation you provideāwith unshakable conviction.
People treat you the way you treat you. Everything is a mirror.
4ļøā£ Lack of Self-Belief
You think, āWho am I to lead this?ā š¤ That energy shows up in your pricing, your pitch, and even your landing page.
Before someone clicks buy, theyāre already FEELING your energy through your copy and confidence.
5ļøā£ Overthinking Everything
Youāre spinning over the venue layout, the playlist š¶, and whether your voice will shake.
Suddenly itās been YEARS and you still havenāt launched.
Perfectionism = procrastination.
⨠Hereās the good news: You donāt have to figure all of this out alone.
Thatās exactly why I created Confidence, Clients & Cash ā 12 weeks to be the coach/speaker who is SEEN, SOUGHT AFTER, SOLD OUT š.
This is a proven system to help you:
ā
Create a transformational event where clients feel safe, seen, and sold on working with you
ā
Keep startup costs low and avoid wasting thousands on trial and error
ā
Craft a high-value, no-brainer offer to pitch at your event with ease and flow
ā
Build the confidence, belief, and energetic frequency of being sold out ā this is an energy you HOLD
You can keep overthinking (wasting time, money, energy) ⦠or you can implement a step-by-step system to turn your retreats into recurring revenue š¼.
š Letās do the damn thing.
