One of the best parts of the Soul Sisters Getaways is the "after".  When the weekend is over and the pictures start coming in, texts are exchanged and the memories of the weekend hit all over again.   There's now this new group of women who have found people who are motivated, inspired, and excited and whether that energy is channeled into starting a new work week, or starting over, it's with strength supported by your new tribe.  Those nights around the campfire are ones none of the Soul Sisters will ever forget.  

Every Getaway so far women come away already planning a reunion trip, or signing up for the next Soul Sisters Getaway as soon as they get home.  It's an addiction of the best kind to attend these events.

Everything about this weekend was perfect.  Any imperfections only made it that much more authentic, that much more real, that much better (though I’d be hard pressed to tell you what those imperfections were because I failed to see any – other than my own stupidity).  If you’d have told me on Thursday that the weekend ahead would leave me rocked to my core, indescribably inspired, unexpectedly heartbroken to have to leave these incredible women behind… I would have laughed.  I never could have guessed where this adventure would have taken me; I’m sure that any notion I could have had had been far surpassed in every facet.

I learned so much in my time at the River Ranch with the Women Who Explore, both about myself and about my perception of others.  So many times, we place these barriers upon ourselves by seeing our fellow sisters as competition instead of collaboration.  If we can just be brave enough to look past our own insecurities, and appreciate other women for their stories … oh the bonds and connections we can create.  I am so incredibly thankful to have met every single Soul Sister in Golden.  I am forever changed, in the best of ways,

Words can't even explain how I am feeling right now. I feel so incredibly lucky to be a part of such an amazing weekend, meeting all you brave, independent, incredible women! All you ladies are so amazing and each one of you filled me with joy and you each taught me something about myself. I came into this weekend to just have fun and if I was lucky enough to meet some awesome women, AND WOW I got even more then I even thought I would and didn't know I needed. As I sat outside yesterday morning reflecting on the night before I found my self crying at how you all where so honest and trusting, it just blew me away that there was people out there so amazing like yourselves, and hope I can be that brave someday.

Lastly I need to thank Lindsay and Jenny!!!! This entire weekend you both kept saying how blown away you where with us and I just have to say that I was so blown away with the 2 of you! You both inspire me so much, have given me more then words can even say.

Too many relationships these days are shallow, there's judgement, competition and jealousy. This weekend provided me an opportunity to be unapologetically me with nothing held back. I was received with open arms, acceptance, kindness, fun, love and friendship with 15 strangers, who will always hold a special place in my heart and many who I have a feeling will be lifelong friends. Huge thank you to Lindsay and Jenny, sisters and founders of Women Who Explore, for creating an affordable, laid back, adventurous and incredible weekend for women of all ages to connect, explore and enjoy
