An event like no other
We are galvanized to the concept of UNPLUGGING from the marketing, high energy messaging, and barrage of brands. We are committed to create events and spaces where people can experience deeper connections with others like them, have access to thought leaders, luminaries, and experts in a more whole approach to pursuing health, and to do this at a location steeped in nature and regeneration. We need more fingers in the gardens, toes in the sand, and heartfelt connections.
