FINALLY! Folks can’t wait to travel – and after 2.5 years of being locked up, losing loved ones, changing jobs, feeling exhausted, and leaving relationships – people are ready to retreat!
The question is are YOU?
I feel that it’s OUR job, as transformational leaders and designers of extraordinary experiences – to step up and find a way to help people be happy again, inspired, find their mojo and purpose, learn new skills, get healthier…
…whatever it is they need that YOU have the skills to help them with, even if it’s as simple as creating the perfect space for folks to rejuvenate in.
The truth is, we live in uncertain times, and we can either keep waiting for the world to return to the way it was OR…
…we can move forward and learn how to create the most life-changing retreats possible and serve our communities while living OUR purpose on this planet.
You get the idea…
It doesn’t matter if you’re a total newbie – it’s critical that you know how to design DEEPLY creative and experiential retreats – because THAT is what folks are craving.
That’s why now is THE PERFECT TIME for learning nifty ninja tips and tools for running your FIRST lucrative retreat – and that’s EXACTLY what we’re going to be doing in this 3-day virtual event and in our post-event bonus session!
So, are you ready to give people what they need? And are you ready to do so in a truly creative, thoughtful and (most importantly) safe way?
Yes? Because NOW is the time for you to be not just thinking about retreats – but actually planning one that is going to make you an awesome income AND help change the lives of your participants.
Why? Because retreats take a good 6-12 months to properly plan out and market – and that already brings us to the end of this year and mid-way into next year.
Rest assured, the world IS opening up again, slowly but surely.
And there ARE folks out there designing and filling their retreats (you’re going to get to meet some of them during this event).
The big question is, are you going to be among them?
(I certainly hope so!)
Sheri seriously rocks!
I’ve been a professional life and business coach and therapist for over two decades, and so often these trainings leave you flat and still seeking value. However, this training has been invaluable – I can’t wait to finish and get started on development. I’m also excited to continue meeting more great people here in the group and find ways we can collaborate and support each other on our journeys!
So here’s how we’re going to roll in this event:
- There will be around 12 hours of content. For real. Be prepared to learn and implement!
- There will be a private Facebook group to post questions. This is where you will go for personal support during our time together.
- Make new friends and even find awesome folks to collaborate with.
- You will be inspired, educated, surprised, and most of all your heart will be filled with the passion to serve your peeps in the highest way!
What am I going learn during this event, Sheri?
DAY ONE – SESSION ONE
Tues July 12th
Revving Up for Your First Retreat!
I hope you’re ready to rock your first retreat because by the end of this 3-day event, you’re going to be absolutely clear on what you need to have in place to properly plan and sell out your first in-country retreat. Our intent is that you know how to create a retreat that stands out from the thousands out there, how to make it deeply transformational, and get the tips and tools critical for running a sold-out retreat safely, creatively, and lucratively.
We’ll cover:
- How to make the MOST of this event and your time with us (let’s rock this!).
- The TOP TRENDS in the wellness travel industry right now.
- Why transformational, experiential, and wellness retreats need to be more INTERACTIVE and multifaceted these days.
- What IS a retreat, and what is NOT? (Not every live event is a retreat!)
- The power of ALIGNMENT in designing your dream retreat.
DAY ONE – SESSION TWO
Tues July 12th
Our Retreat Power Planning Checklist!
It’s surprising how many items need to put in place to be able to plan, price, promote, market, and facilitate your awesome retreat. Our goal is to make sure that you don’t get yourself in trouble because you didn’t dot your i’s and cross your t’s! With our Retreat Power Planning Checklist in hand – you’ll know exactly what steps you need to take to create your dream retreat safely, legally, and beautifully!
We’ll cover:
- The FOUR questions you need to answer to be able to promote your retreat.
- The #1 question you MUST ask to choose a magnetic location – especially THESE days. (There’s nothing sadder than a canceled retreat!)
- Where the BEST and WORST places are to run a retreat (Don’t make these rookie mistakes!)
- To price your retreat PROPERLY and what to include (plus calculating your profit!)
- What technology you need to have in place to market your retreat.
- What insurance you need for your BUSINESS and RETREATS (Retreat insurance, Event Cancellation/Postponement Insurance, Trip Cancellation and Medical Insurance) and LEGAL FORMS – plus writing CANCELLATION Policies!
DAY TWO – QUESTIONS & ANSWERS!
Weds July 13th
Today you’ll have a chance to ask questions and get some coaching in our special session! Ask us anything and let’s have a blast together.
DAY THREE – SESSION ONE
Thurs July 14th
Designing Your Magnetic Sales Page!
Today is ALL about MARKETING! First we’ll be diving into creating a STUNNING SALES page. Because without one – it’s going to be VERY hard to sell out your retreats (unless you’re famous of course!). Your retreat trip page needs to have specific elements on it to excite your potential clients and compel them to register for your event. By the end of this session you are going to know exactly what makes the perfect retreat trip page!
In Session One we’re going to cover:
- The TEN components of a deliciously magnetic sales page that SELLS.
- Sheri’s top 12 graphic tips for designing the PERFECT retreat trip page.
- How to PROPERLY use photos on your sales page
- Which items should NEVER be on your page
DAY THREE – SESSION TWO
Thurs July 14th
Strategies for FILLING Your Retreat!
Once your retreat sales page is done, you have to put your retreat out there. People will purchase your retreat as long as they fully understand THREE items:
1) the problem that’s plaguing them;
2) the price of staying where they are and not addressing their problem; and
3) why your retreat is just what they need to solve their problem. Yet as obvious as this might sound, most retreat leaders don’t take the time to educate their potential clients on these THREE major points. But by the end of today’s class – YOU absolutely will!
In Session Two we’ll be focusing on:
- Why most retreat leaders have trouble marketing and the MISSING ninja strategy.
- Education-based marketing – what it is and why you MUST be doing this!
- TEN different ways to generate leads for your retreat (so you’ll have qualified buyers).
BONUS SESSION
Monday July 18th
Our Wicked Fun Livestream!
We’re going to celebrate our time together with a ROCKING 4-hour LIVESTREAM. We’ll be answering questions, coaching you, and speaking with students of ours who have created some fabulous retreats! Feel free to ask them questions and pick their brains. Bring your favorite beverage and come hang with us.
Just like we did for our fabulous, live, online retreat extravaganza last year – we’re offering our “pay-what-you-can” tuition again for this event.
Meaning, you can pay any amount as long as you pay at least $1 USD. (I want you committed to showing up!)
The full tuition for this event is $97 USD. However, if you can only pay $1, $50, whatever – that’s fine. Just please don’t feel bad about it or judge yourself!
I’m doing this so that EVERYONE can attend
No excuses.
Keep in mind: There’s a LOT of content – around TWELVE HOURS – and you may not get to attend all the sessions due to time conflicts. (You can see the exact session times listed in the FAQ section below.)
You have unrestricted access to the session replays until midnight Monday July 18th, New York time (6 days).
This should give you plenty of time to relax and participate in the event at YOUR convenience.
However, if you feel like you need to more time to dive into the material (maybe you’re traveling??), then here’s the deal:
If you choose to pay the full tuition of $97 USD you’ll have “forever access” to ALL session recordings.
That way, everyone can participate fully.
And if you don’t feel comfortable about paying in full BEFORE the event because you don’t know us (YET!!!) just let us know after the event and you can pay the DIFFERENCE between what you paid when you registered, and the full tuition of $97 USD.

Hi! I’m Sheri Rosenthal, and like many of you I’m a coach, author, speaker, and retreat leader.
After 18 years of practicing medicine and being trapped in an office, my biggest fantasy was creating a lifestyle that allowed me to travel, work, and live anywhere in the world. When I sold my practice, I felt like I could FINALLY create my dream life.
That was back in 1998 and after leaving medicine, I started studying and working for don Miguel Ruiz, author of The Four Agreements. I became a retreat junkie and in 2003, I created my own travel agency, Journeys of the Spirit® – a boutique travel agency specializing in experiential travel and transformational destination retreats.
In 2014 I created Wanderlust Entrepreneur, where I’ve taught thousands of passion-driven entrepreneurs how to design experiential transformational retreats through our online programs, as well as our live and virtual events (like this one).
Over the past 20 years, my team and I have designed, marketed and facilitated scores of retreats of our own — not to mention the scores of retreats we’ve co-designed and co-marketed for other retreat facilitators! So truly, there’s NOTHING that we haven’t seen in the business!
We want to TEACH YOU ALL our hard-earned secrets of the trade so that you can:
- Design a retreat sales page that people can’t resist signing up for….
- Create your very first retreat knowing that you aren’t going to have to cancel because you can’t fill it…
- Feel confident about pricing your retreats properly so you don’t lose money…
- Fully understand what you need to do to market your retreats…
- Know that you’re protecting yourself legally while running your retreats!
