2019 RETREAT DATE:
Oct 20 - Oct 26

From the epic grandeur of Big Sur to the Mediterranean-style stretch of Santa Barbara coastline nicknamed “the American Riviera,” this region of picturesque hamlets, jagged sea cliffs, and rolling wine country has long attracted visitors mesmerized by its dreamlike beauty.  The Central Coast, CA retreat is conducted in conjunction with local businesses and organizations in Pismo and Avila, CA.  The quaint towns offer a perfect backdrop for a week of relaxation, connecting, and enjoying what the community has to offer during a Little Pink retreat week.

The financial environment of not having to pay for anything was a huge stress relief, and that is priceless.
