Are you yearning for a space to take big action on your goals while nourishing yourself with great food, better company & a world of possibility? Do you want to leave behind the distraction of every-day life and get support to clarify and begin taking your next steps? 

If so, we've designed a space for you. To build connection, nourish you, and help you get from where you are to where you're going, we're offering two in-person retreats for musicians this August (2024) in Cincinnati, OH. We know there is great power in sharing a space with our fellow humans. We are excited to give you an experience you'll never forget that embraces the wholeness of who you are.

Career Generator

You probably have a lot of creative ideas. Should you start a chamber group? Apply to teaching jobs? Maybe you want to pivot your work but aren't sure how to merge your skill sets. Or, maybe you just want to revamp your resume, cv, website and digital presence! This retreat will help you clarify what steps you need to take to execute your project(s) and create a career you love. Then, we will jump into the actual work and be alongside you as you generate strategies and commit to the work!

 

Auditions & Practice Design

Is your dream to win an orchestral audition? Are you looking for steps you can take to up level your preparation & performance? This retreat will introduce strategies to help you create better systems to prepare for auditions, practice with more effectiveness, cope with the mental pressure of the process, and tell an irresistible story to the panel. You'll practice, perform and learn from incredible musicians ready to help you in this journey.

Here's what you can count on: 
  • Get space, accountability, and structure away from the extra noise that surrounds you on a daily basis
  • Address the whole of who you are with focus on wellness, fun, nourishment and work 
  • Learn in workshops and presentations with incredible guests who are musicians, creatives & change-making humans 
  • Take big action in work sessions designed to help you not just know what to do, but actually do it 
  • Get 1:1 guidance in a calm and time-flexible environment
  • Commune with us and others, bringing into reality your ideas and strategies with surrounding support 
  • Eat incredible meals with a community (all dietary preferences welcomed)

What you'll leave with:
  • More clarity on your values, priorities, and strengths – the foundational elements that fuel all success
  • An outline of your action plan, including high level goals and milestones you’ll be committing to 
  • Results in hand from the work we will do together at the retreat
