“Sally’s retreat was so relaxing and special. The atmosphere was warm and accepting and I felt safe to be myself completely. I had never been on a retreat before and would highly recommend this one. If you want to feel relaxed, rejuvenated and inspired, then go on Sally’s retreat. Thank you 🤩”

“My whole want for the weekend was to slow down and change that belief of ‘always in a rush’. I wanted to share, Sally, as I feel so many would feel similar about slowing down and taking time, and this is the power of it"
