I’m Donna Carlson, a certified women’s leadership development coach, inspired by a 25 year PR career wishing for a world where I could bring my best self to work. A year ago in my personal yoga practice I was inspired by a song that talks about the crushing and the pressing of life that turns grapes to wine.
From that moment of inspiration the New Wine retreat was born, using winemaking as a metaphor for developing the noble qualities of a leader. It’s a transformational three day event to crush the tyranny of the hustle and create a new, more life-giving normal. Watch this video for a snapshot of the experience in the November 2019 retreat.

Tending the Soil
The soil is the first essential growth factor to create a wine of noble character. Likewise, the soil of our life forms us but doesn’t determine who we become. That’s why need we to know our soil to create strategies for the future.
The way we do this is with the 360º Life Map we we walk you through the process of taking an inventory of your life so you can determine what in your soil is working for you…or not.

Strategies for Growth
The second essential growth factor of a noble wine is the right environment for growth to flourish and the need strategies to grow all of the inside qualities that move us from surviving to thriving, where we see the world more clearly.
We weave holistic awareness about the connection between your gut and brain and the factors that cultivate a healthy mind, soul and body so you can create your own strategy.

Design & Intention
The third essential growth factor of a noble wine is to follow the vintner’s design. It’s after the winemaker has chosen the best grapes and designed the wine that the crushing and the pressing begins. How we respond to that matters.
This retreat is designed to provide you the space you need to see things clearly, understand how you’re designed to move from surviving to thriving and design a strategy to live that way.

Future Retreats

Our last executive retreat was at The Garden of the Gods Resort & Strata Wellness Center. This is a beautiful place for a custom off-site for your executive team.

We are starting to plan reunion retreats with our Life Strategy Design Community, venturing off to places like this chateau in the South of France. This is a great chance to revisit your strategy and bring a friend.

Partners in Seattle, Chicago and Atlanta are already looking at dates and locations. Watch here for other locations and retreat themes to see which one works for you. Sign up on the mail list to make sure you don’t miss the next one.
