Purpose & Pine retreats focus on empowering you. We will have a series of workshop aligned to your strengths, your goals, what's getting in the way of your satisfaction and achievements, and strategies to take with you to make a difference in your life. You'll consider your purpose, passions, and reason for being. Our ultimate goal is to enable you to take something with you - something meaningful, empowering, and life-changing. Find out more on our workshop details page. Below are a few fun facts about the retreat- where it is, what you can expect, and the like! See the retreat FAQs page for more details.
We are thrilled to share that the retreat will be hosted at Alford Lake Camp (ALC) in scenic Hope, Maine. ALC, a girl's summer camp, is owned by Kristen's mother-in-law, Sue McMullan, and has been in the family for more than 60 years. Camp will have just concluded, so we will have the stunning property to ourselves, but will benefit from having ALC Director Sue McMullan as a part of the retreat experience.
ALC is settled on a 500-acre lake and is just 15 minutes from the stunning Maine coastal towns of Camden and Rockland, Maine - there are great restaurants, excursions, and hiking nearby! It's about an hour and a half from Portland and just a few hours from famous places like Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor - you'll want to stay a few days or arrive early to enjoy all Maine has to offer during this gorgeous time of year!
We are grateful for ALC's endorsement and willingness to host our retreat based on our shared values of empowering women, creating a connection with nature, and building environments of authenticity, safety, and inspiration. For details on the retreat workshops, visit the retreat workshops page!
