Episode Synopsis

Heart of a Woman Retreat is a life changing experience.

Joined by her good friend Tristin Duncan, who originally introduced her to the retreat, Emilie dives into the inspiring origins and evolution of this impactful event. Melanie shares the journey that led to the creation of *Heart of a Woman*, from an unexpected job opportunity to the powerful experiences that women encounter at the retreat. Celeste, who joined early on, has witnessed and contributed to its growth, helping women connect more deeply with their divine identity.**Key Takeaways:**- **Introduction to Heart of a Woman:** The retreat was born out of a demand from men who had experienced the transformational power of a similar retreat, *Warrior Heart*, and wanted something similar for their wives. With the support and encouragement of her peers, Melanie embarked on creating a nondenominational Christian retreat specifically for women.- **The Early Days:** Melanie recounts how the first *Heart of a Woman* retreat was held in 2010 with just 16 women. Despite feeling initially overwhelmed, she was deeply moved by the profound changes the participants experienced.- **Growth and Expansion:** Over the years, the retreat has grown significantly, moving from small intimate gatherings to larger events hosting up to 120 women at the beautiful Canyon Ranch in Wanship, Utah.- **The Transformational Power:** Both Melanie and Celeste highlight the incredible transformation women undergo during the retreat, which focuses on helping them rediscover their feminine hearts and deepen their relationship with God.**Discount Code and Scholarship Information:**Don’t miss out on the next *Heart of a Woman* retreat happening from October 10-12.
