If you’re done blending in and you know you’re ready to be the woman on the stage (not just in the audience), this episode is for you. In this conversation, I’m joined by my creative director, Stephanie West , to talk about our 2026 retreats + Movement Makers Mastermind — and why this experience is for the woman who’s already good at what she does… but is so ready to be seen as the leader she truly is. We jam on what it really takes to go from “I have a brand and I’m making money” → to “People are asking me to speak. My podcast is growing. My content converts. I’m recognized as the go-to in my industry.” If you’ve been sitting on the sidelines, watching everyone else get the invitations, this episode will give you a clear picture of: who these retreats are for what actually happens during the weekend (and all year long) and why content + tapping together are the thing that finally gets you out of your own way. IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: Who the 2026 retreats are really for Women who already have a business and a brand, have seen success, but feel like they’re still getting overlooked and blending into the online space. Going from “good” to ICONIC Why “I’m talented and I help people” isn’t enough anymore — and what has to shift in your branding, content, and energy to become the woman people ask to speak, feature, and collaborate with. Stages, podcasts, books & movements How we’re building an ecosystem around your brand so you’re not just posting pretty content, you’re getting booked on stages, growing your podcast, and selling your offers and books. What actually happens at the retreats Content days with Stephanie behind the camera, me tapping you through the visibility fears, storytelling, messaging, and creating enough high-quality content to last you months — plus support all year long to actually use it. Why generic content advice isn’t working anymore The difference between “inspirational” content and leader content that converts followers into buyers and positions you as the person people go to. Collapsing timelines with support How weekly content calls, custom content maps, and tapping through resistance together turn “someday I’ll host an event / write a book / grow a podcast” into concrete dates and sold-out rooms. The power of tapping + creative direction together Why so many people invest in photo/video shoots and then never post the content — and how we’re solving that by pairing strategy + nervous system work so you feel safe to be seen. RETREAT DATES (2026) Feb 27 – March 2 — Kelowna June 12 – 14 — TBD Oct 16 – 19 — Banff / Canadian Rockies These retreats are part of our Movement Makers Mastermind — a space for women who are ready to build legacies, movements, and brands that actually stand out and sell.
