Do you remember the enchanting world of Narnia from C.S. Lewis's The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, first published in 1950? In this beloved tale, a magical wardrobe serves as a portal to a fantastical land, leading from the familiar to the extraordinary. It was this image that came to mind as I journeyed down a long, beautiful tree-lined driveway in Hope, arriving at my transformative three-day destination. The experience was nothing short of breathtaking, magical, and life changing.

After closing my store and letting the dust settle, I found myself reflecting on my life. Though my life is wonderful, I longed for more happiness & purpose, yet I realized that the greatest obstacle was myself. Often, it’s our own mental roadblocks that prevent us from living a more intentional and authentic life. We all deserve to understand and nurture our inner selves, though the task can seem daunting. My negative beliefs were the chains holding me back from my true mission: creating a beautiful life for myself and inspiring others to do the same.
Each new day I would wake hoping to find the strength or the “one” thing that would help me overcome my fears and feelings of unworthiness. I felt lost, alone and in need of guidance, so I reached out to my dear friends, Teresa and Jonathan Penner.
I believe everything happens for a reason and at the right time. It was finally my moment to give myself the most precious gift: three days devoted entirely to self-care. Recently, I attended a three-day retreat hosted by LifeApp, a registered Canadian Charity created by my friends. This retreat promised a profound journey of self-discovery, offering tools to improve the quality of life and relationships. It sounded magical, and it truly was.
The transformative power of the weekend took root within me and continues to grow. I am deeply grateful for this opportunity and proud of myself for prioritizing self-care. I also discovered that I was not alone in my quest, sharing this experience with over 40 other beautiful souls, each seeking to learn and grow. Through a series of shared processes, we each emerged with something unique and personal. For me, I recognized my worth, and now I am excited to continue living my life fearlessly. If you feel it’s your time, consider exploring this retreat. It’s a gift that keeps on giving. Even if you think you don’t need it, you deserve it.
Take the leap. Step through the wardrobe. Embrace the magic of transformation.
