Carmel, CA is the PERFECT place to bask in                   four beautiful days and four blissful nights!

November 2-6, 2017

Relaxing in the late afternoon sun, waves crashing against the rocky shore, as the sun’s warm rays dance against the fleeting ocean mist. The cool water of the shoreline flirting with your toes, and a gentle breeze softly touching your face––as you close your eyes and melt into bliss. 
The fresh air clears your mind, opens your heart, and feeds your soul. Your daily struggles are miles away and the serenity you seek finally envelopes you.         
You find yourself building friendships to last a lifetime, and surrounded by people like you, who want to create their best possible life.
Are you dreaming? No, you’re in Carmel-By-the-Sea, California and you’re surrounded by breathtaking beauty in every direction. And the only decision for you to make next is whether to indulge in a leisurely nap or walk along the cobblestone streets of the village of Carmel to explore the award winning local galleries and wineries with your fellow bliss seekers.
Is this a dream come true? Yes, let me tell you more . . .

The Venue

Carmel – named One of America’s Best Beach Towns by National Geographic Traveler transports you into a fairytale world where artists, poets, and writers express their creativity in every turn. From the storybook architecture of every cottage, gallery and shop, to the artists lazily working to capture the exact shades of orange, pink and purple as the sun sets on the rocky cliffs and bluffs of the Pacific Coastline.
IMG_3235After dinner, feel yourself enjoying a stress-free stroll under the stars to rejoin our intimate gathering for evening rejuvenation sessions by the cozy outdoor fireplace, or indoors sipping wine and sherry by the fire. At the end of the evening, your heart is full and your mind is clear to dream of your bright new world.
Each morning you feel refreshed as you walk the few short paces from your villa to join our happy group. Together we begin the day sharing freshly baked quicheand piping hot coffee, prepared by the Inn keepers of the quaint Happy Landing bed and breakfast. It’s time to begin a fresh new day of discovery, laughter, and complete savoring for your senses!

Paying attention to every detail, each villa has it’s own unique theme and includes plush robes, comfy beds, your own bottle of sherry, private full baths, and complimentary wifi (should you decide to get a glimpse of the world left behind).

Step just outside our inn and  feel your spirits soar when you discover some of the most incredible local restaurants, and sample spirits from award-winning local wineries.

    Lisa Broesch-Weeks, Host                                                                                                                          

 

 

 

I’m a recovering perfectionist and have been known to wear many hats at the same time. So I get that the pressure of life can start to weigh you down, and sometimes you need to take a “time-out” to lighten your load and put a spring in your step! That’s why I’ve created this very special renewal weekend to combine a life-changing experience (in a gorgeous environment) with practical tips you can use in your real world to create everyday bliss. 

What Coaching Clients and Workshop Attendees Have Said About Our Work Together: 

“Lisa really connects with her audience. Her message and delivery were on target, kept everyone’s attention, and motivated the participants to take immediate action. Lisa’s spirit is fresh and places everyone at ease, I look forward to her next presentation!” -Deanna Snyder, Event Manager, Healthy Woman Conferences & Events

“Lisa is one of the smartest and most insightful coaches I’ve ever worked with. Not only has she been a creative leader in the hospitality industry (working for one of the biggest brands on the planet), but she continues to be a business innovator, helping companies overcome challenges and resolve conflict. She brings all of this experience to her coaching practice, and I’ve been incredibly blessed to benefit from her guidance and support. Lisa’s work has been focused around helping busy professionals (like so many of us) to access our ‘bliss,’ and her latest book is your opportunity to learn some of her proven strategies and techniques. –Matthew Garrepy, Client and Chief Brand Architect and Partner, ValueArc

“I can’t thank you enough for our sessions. I accomplished so much more than I thought I would and completed plans for my personal and professional dreams, goals, and steps to achieving them. I’m feeling unstoppable!” Leslie Graham, Coaching and Retreat Client

“Lisa is one of the most gifted and talented individuals I know. Her energy and enthusiasm are second to none. There is no doubt in my mind that Lisa’s experience and skills will be a profitable investment for any individual or organization.” -David Pezzino, Workshop Participant

“I want to thank you personally for the most wonderful day and adventure . . . This day really meant a lot to me, and did inspire me with hope and opportunity for a fresh new start to a new year and a new life.” -Donna Nelson, Retreat Participant

“What started out as a search to find out my ‘passion in life’ turned into a journey into not only my personal desires, but my business goals as well. Lisa helped me realize that they can be one in the same, and I now feel I have a new sense of direction in life. I’m excited about the future and grateful to have more Bliss in my life.” -George Royal, VP, Kuykendall Gardner and Coaching Client
