Develop Leadership Skills
Each one of us is a leader in our own right. We are leaders of our communities, our future and most importantly, of ourselves. No matter who or what you lead, at NextGEN Retreat you will come away with even more tools for successful, heart-centered leadership.
Social Impact + Engagement
Here at NextGEN Retreat we don’t shy away from the “tough topics.” We put it all on the table! We come together to look closer at what is really going on in the world and we learn how to love, honor and respect each other evenmore. It’s not about highlighting what isn’t working, just to place blame. It’s about becoming open to new perspectives and being apart of a better future!
Healthy, Successful Relationships
Relationships can overflow with good, as well as be our greatest challenges,and places of growth. Here at NextGEN Retreat we open up these conversations. We connect with one another. We learn and experience greater ways of relating, listening, being seen, being heard and cultivating deeper richness in relationships in every area of life. Learning how to connect in ways that make you feel safe and supported is in integral tool for living your greatest possible life.
Financial Prosperity
We live in an infinitely abundant universe. Especially, at this time in life, knowing, claiming, activating and accessing your own abundance can be challenging. Here at NextGEN Retreat we offer powerful workshops, resources and conversations to help you experience even more prosperity in your life!
