The Retreat
What will you do with your one precious life?
This retreat is intentionally designed for those ready to dig down deep and unleash who they truly are. A few days to quiet the noise of the outside world, tune in to nature, listen to your inner voice, and connect with others who are also learning to surrender to the signs.
For those ready to listen...
You know that small, still voice inside. The one that whispers clues about your soul's path. The one you've been ignoring while trying to please everyone else, fit in, or simply survive.
The universe has been sending you signs. Songs on the radio. Books falling off shelves. The bumper sticker on the car in front of you. People who seem to be on a mission to deliver the exact message you need to hear.
This retreat is for you if you're ready to stop ignoring those signs and start surrendering to them.
The journey
While all retreats are tailored for those attending, this is some of what you can expect:
-
Navigating your life purpose during this pivotal time of disruption and chaos
-
Sharing your "I'm Here Because..." story in a safe, non-judgmental space for vulnerability.
-
Intention setting: What's the one question you hope to answer by the end of the retreat? What signs have been trying to get your attention?
-
We work together to identify your unique gifts and true calling using frameworks like the Zone of Genius, where you can operate in a state of flow.
-
We'll explore your Human Design profile, allowing you to live life from an energetic perspective.
-
We'll discover who your Authentic Self is and give you the freedom to embrace that Self, without the pretense that has kept you in hiding for so many years.
-
Through reflective exercises, you'll uncover patterns and limiting beliefs, and see what's been blocking your path. We'll use sound healing or energy healing to start to clear those blocks.
-
Together, we will map out your Vision, and create the first steps on your journey to achieving that Vision. This might include goal-setting, using the "Stop, Start, Continue" method, selecting accountability buddies, and more.
-
Body and soul will be nourished with delicious food from a private chef, and nature walks to connect with the wisdom freely available all around us.
You'll arrive stressed, confused, burnt out - but ready for transformation.
You'll leave a different person. Hopeful and inspired for the journey ahead.
Words from attendees
"Laura brings an ability to guide others down the often, unclear path of transformation with practical, gentle guidance. She has a vast toolkit that allows her to coach people on how to integrate their professional, personal, spiritual experiences. I value her intuitive sense of what a person feels, as well as how they need to take action in order to put those feelings - and the experiences that led to them to work."

Your spiritual host
Laura Frances Gates has spent two decades undoing a lifetime (and generations) of conditioning to reconnect with her soul's true path.
Her journey began with a moment of grace on her bedroom floor, when she begged the universe to release her from pain and suffering. In that moment, she felt a deep, inner knowing that all would be okay.
That surrender became the foundation of her work guiding others through their own transformations.
Laura has traveled the globe in search of healing and wisdom, studying intuition medicine and learning to notice the signs the universe constantly sends.
Laura has led retreats in many luxury resorts around the world, including: Costa Rica; The Napa Valley; Tulum, Mexico; Miraval, Arizona; and Esalen, Big Sur.
She has now brought those years of expertise together to offer an exclusive, intimate retreat experience at her purpose-built home, just outside Syracuse New York.
Through this retreat, she creates a safe, non-judgmental space where you can learn to read your own personal "sign language" and listen to that small, still voice inside.
Laura's gift is helping others trust the universe's guidance, get out of their own way, and finally allow themselves to be themselves, unedited and fully alive.
