This is not your typical "retreat".
We offer a transformative experience that combines personal wellness and professional growth in an environment that encourages deep reflection and connection.
We believe sustainability requires inter-outer alignment, and Dream Waves of Impact is here to help you transform from inside out.
All retreat tickets include one integration coaching call, to put what you've learned back into your daily life.
A fantastic event, expertly curated, designed to challenge the status quo, opportunities to connect with new ideas, people and the natural environment.
