Embrace Fall WORKSHOP
THE GET READY
A day long retreat fortifying Community through Connection, Wisdom & Preparedness
Why This Retreat
To life's questions, the answer is always "community."
In this time of great uncertainty, we're called to come together—to deepen our bonds, harvest our growth, and have the crucial conversations that truly matter.
We've seen how fragile things can be. Between pandemics, environmental disasters, political chaos, and escalating conflicts, the systems we rely on have shown their cracks.
We pray for peace and safety, but emergencies often catch people off guard. Let's "get ready" so we can "stay ready" for what may come.
Love, liberation, and a fortified community—that's what will make sure our people are GOOD when things get dicey. Let's prepare by doing what we can today to show up resourced for one another tomorrow.
Join us to deepen as chosen community, make emergency preparedness plans, and gain skills together at the beautiful Whispertree Retreat Center. Prepping in luxury and style!
What We're Creating TOGETHER
Embrace Reunion & Celebration
Embrace turns five this year! We see this as our “family reunion”—a chance to gather as a whole, celebrate our individual and collective evolutions and deepen our connections as we enter the next chapter for our network of spiritually rooted, impact-driven leaders and entrepreneurs.
Community Resilience Through Ancient Wisdom
We'll explore ancestral technologies for building beloved community and witness eachother’s growth and becoming through rites of passage/initiation, decision by council, collective prayer and sacred song.
Spiritually Rooted Preparedness
Learning how community becomes our greatest strategy for collective thriving. We'll build stronger bonds while gaining essential skills in emergency planning and mutual support systems. There will also be optional breakouts to talk about financial resilience.
WHAT TO EXPECT
1. Guided connection, meaningful conversation, and deepening with multi-faith multi-cultural community
2. Live music, song circle, healthy family style meals, and nourishing time in nature
3. A personalized emergency plan for you and your family/ household/ community.
4. A personalized list of key supplies you need based on your budget.
5. Practicing multiple emergency scenarios to test our plan and supplies for gaps.
6. Finally, we will weave together a "community resource map" and understand how we can leverage the greatest resource of all: community.
All in the context of prayer and faith in the wisdom of The Divine Plan.
