“Hannah's balance of play retreat was exactly what I needed at exactly the right time! It was light, fun, playful, exploratory, thought provoking, stress relieving, and creative! I'm a mama of two, the youngest being 7 months old, so stepping away for a moment was so much needed, but also the fun nature of the retreat was PERFECT. The itinerary was thoughtfully structured, while allowing space for freetime. Our days included paddle boarding, a waterfall hike, a massage, yoga in the am, a workshop in the afternoon, and usually some free time in between. Hannah has such a gift connecting with people; she is a true light drawing in those around her. Her guided meditations are a breath of fresh air, and the workshops she curated were so fun! If you haven't been on a retreat with Hannah yet, you're missing out. The first retreat I ever did was with Hannah in 2020, and it completely changed my life. This is my 2nd retreat with her, and I intend on attending a 3rd if she'll have me! It's very clear this is Hannah's true calling, and I feel so lucky to be a part of these experiences and witness her evolution!!”

By exploring themes and acts of Community, Creativity, Play, Adventure, Love, Care, we can deeper our experiences to receive Magic, Transformation and Healing; thus, we are better prepared to care for ourselves and be vessels of love for others. I love you Hannah!”
