MAKE SOME ROOM FOR YOURSELF
A personal brand development retreat for women.
Hosted by Kelly Lucente | Spooner, Wisconsin
HOW MUCH IS IT COSTING YOU TO KEEP PUTTING YOURSELF LAST?
You keep giving your best to everyone else while the things you want gets placed on the back burner. Press Pause gives you three nights to focus on yourself and consider what deserves to change.
With Kelly’s guidance and personalized brand tools, you’ll gain a better understanding of what makes you valuable and how to express it.
You’ll come home with more to go on when deciding where to invest your energy, including what you’re ready to stop postponing.
🎥 Watch the recap from our last retreat. You’ll get it.

KEEPSAKES
PERSONAL BRAND TOOLS, INCLUDED
You might be considering a professional change, growing a business, or trying to differentiate yourself in a remarkable way.
Before we meet in Spooner, if you haven't already you’ll complete RE-DNA, Kelly’s personal brand assessment. It identifies the three archetypes that make up your Signature Trio. Together, we’ll do a deep dive on what that combination reveals about you and how to communicate the value you bring.
Your assessment, personalized Trio guide with your Signature Word, and a signed copy of RE-MARKABILITY Formula are included. You’ll also receive tools to reference after the weekend, with a better understanding of what distinguishes you and how to communicate it..
You don’t need to arrive with a polished introduction or a plan for your next chapter. We’ll have time to talk about it.
GIVE YOURSELF A SAY IN WHAT COMES NEXT
55% of working women say they often put others’ needs ahead of their own goals or preferences.*
How long have yours been on pause?
There will always be something at work that needs you. Your family’s calendar probably won’t clear itself either. Waiting until everyone else is taken care of can mean waiting indefinitely.
At Press Pause, you’ll have time to think through what you’ve been putting off. Kelly and the women around you will help you see what you might not have considered.
Let's press pause on your demands for a few days.

MEET YOUR HOST
MEET YOUR HOST
Hi, I’m Kelly Lucente.
I’ve spent more than 30 years helping people and businesses understand what makes them different and give others a reason to choose them. My career includes branding work with entrepreneurs and Fortune 500 companies, along with an award-winning sales career that taught me how much the right positioning matters when someone is making a decision.
I created RE-MARKABILITY® to help people recognize their contribution and explain it more effectively.
At Press Pause, we have time to work through that together. I’ll review your results before you arrive and lead the personal brand sessions. You’ll also have dedicated time to ask me about an opportunity or question specific to you.
