October 10–12, 2025
Join us this fall for Speaking to What Matters, a weekend retreat devoted to uncovering the power of your story. Through a mix of reflective writing, embodied speaking, and courageous story circles, you’ll explore not just how to express yourself—but why your story matters. You’ll leave with new tools for clarity, confidence, and connection, both on the page and out loud.
This weekend includes:
Private accommodations with en-suite bath
Chef-prepared, seasonal meals (welcome dinner through farewell brunch)
Full access to Hilltown Commons’ 100-acre campus
Writing sessions and story-sharing circles that invite honesty, clarity, and deep connection
Guided frameworks to help shape your story with meaning and depth
Time to reflect, restore, and find renewed confidence in your voice

You’ll walk away with:
A deeper understanding of your story and why it matters
A practical, heart-centered framework for telling your truth
The courage to express yourself with clarity and care

This is for you if you’ve ever thought:
“I know I have a story, but I don’t know where to start.”
“I have so much inside me, but I don’t know how to express it.”
“I don’t trust my voice—it doesn’t feel strong, or clear, or me.”
“I want to feel more confident speaking up—in my writing, in rooms, in relationships.”
Or even…
I don’t know how to explain who I am in a way that feels real.
Do I even have a story worth telling?
I don’t know if I want to go there.
