Hi Michelle, you represent what I’ve been looking for! I want to initiate a spiritual retreat and I just made this realization recently. You make all the best points compared to many other videos I’ve watched on this subject.
You even give advice on assisting in “helping the client in making that connection by opening up”. Bottom line; As I grow in the spiritual path, I want to assist others on the spiritual path, while simultaneously, making a living, why not!?! Continue on Michelle, your doing good in the earth and your assisting many souls. One Love.

Very helpful, thanks for making this video!

[scarlettfrancesca]

This was really helpful, thank you very much. I am curious, do you often have a team of facilitators when you are doing a retreat or is it just you and the group of people? I feel that having additional people to offer beneficial information or assistance may have a retreat look more professional?

Are you doing anything differently now because of covid and having people in an enclosed space together? What about if your retreat is sharing an overnight space for several days… how would you navigate that in a safe way?
