Meaningful Life Retreat: Nisswa November 6-8, 2026

$895.00

The NEW Meaningful Life Retreat is designed for women who are ready to explore how to bring greater meaning into everyday life by cultivating wonder, coherence, flow, and community! Our activities will center in concepts from the How to Live a Meaningful Life book: reframing meaning, getting unstuck, developing meaning-making practices, and becoming more fully alive. This expands our work from “what to do” to “how to live” with deeper conversations about what’s really important to you.

We will gather Friday evening, November 6 - Sunday morning, November 8th in a private cabin at Grand View Lodge in Nisswa, MN. We will balance our time with reflection, discussion, laughs, and down time. 

Meaningful Life Retreat includes:

  • Three days intentionally designed to help you define meaning for this chapter of life, reconnect with what’s important to you, and design meaning-making practices that deepen every day experiences.

  • Two nights accommodations in the Garden Cottages at Grand View Lodge in Nisswa, MN. All rooms are double-occupancy with double king/queen beds. Roommate requests available.

  • All meals, drinks, and snacks prepared and served up by our in-house private chef (NEW this year!!)

  • Meaningful Life Reflection Workbook to help you reflect on meaning in your life now and design moments of meaning every day.

  • Thoughtful surprises and swag to keep you engaged and fully alive!

  • Two experienced facilitators, Katie Selby and Sarah Wojnicki Smith, both trained by Stanford University in Life Design.

  • Optional: Participation in a formative community following the retreat. We will create this together!

We have spots for nine amazing women! This retreat is only open to women who have attended a Life Design Retreat or QuarterLife Retreat with us before. Registration will close when all spots are filled. Prices listed are per person. All purchases are non-refundable, but transferable.
