We'll work each morning at the Surf Hotel and take afternoon siestas at the Surf Chateau.
You'll attend interactive workshops and will learn how to create an intentional marketing
and branding strategy specific to your business goals.
You'll focus on you, your livelihood, and your well-being. You'll have time to be still,
quiet your mind, and do some soul-searching.
We'll carve out time to shop, explore trails and adventure in the river.
You'll mix & mingle at cocktail hour, gather around family-style dinners,
and enjoy live tunes at the beach.
The River Gathering was not only growth for my business due to the amazing workshops, break out sessions, and other badass women entrepreneurs that attended. My self-worth was truly found and everyone should know they are worth it!

The River Gathering was a profound experience for both myself and my business. I would absolutely recommend it to any solopreneur or any woman in a creative industry. Especially those feeling stuck emotionally or in business, feeling lack of connection to the community, or in need of sisterhood and support.

I didn't know what to expect when I signed up for River Gathering, but I followed the calling. Thinking back—magic is the one word I'd use to describe my few days in the mountains of Colorado. I walked away from The River Gathering knowing how to better care for myself, which extends into taking better care of my business (and met some pretty rad new ladies I get to call friends now). This moment to pause was a breath of fresh air I so needed several years into business.

I am so grateful to my past self for overlooking my fear of scarcity and investing in The River Gathering - I didn’t know what I would get out of it, I only felt called to go. These past few days have been wildly, unpredictably, incredibly transformational in ways I don’t know how to express, and the energy and fire I feel leaving this place is more than I could have ever expected or realized I needed.

Timeless architecture, comfortable, elegant interiors, sustainable materials and outstanding craftsmanship is evident from the moment you arrive. There is nothing ordinary about the Surf Chateau.
