rest your soul... rekindle your calling
~ Retreat ~
Eleven years ago I said yes to a crazy stirring to gather women who felt the tension of loving their family, and also loving their work . . .
and things have never been the same . . .
since then more than 25,000 women have joined our community.
and at the height of it all, when everything was going insanely well...
god put it on my heart to lay it down & walk away.
insert intense heartbreak
and simultaneously.... unexplainable peace.
as a society we've survived, grieved and made it to the other side.
as business owners, authors and podcasters, we've learned to pivot, dig deep, or step back.
AS MOTHERS WE'VE LEARNED TO FIGHT, STAND OUR GROUND, TEACH OUR KIDS, AND GO AGAINST THE GRAIN.
As friends & sisters we've learned where we really stand, who our people are, and sadly, quite possibly, found ourselves alone after standing up for what we believe in.
as women, we've been attacked as a gender, given more of ourselves than we knew we had, And maybe, just maybe, lost a little bit of ourselves along the way.
As a ministry we've hosted 7 sold out conferences
and over 20 retreats in 10+ states
it's been exactly 5 years since we hosted our last event, and the world
is simply not the same place it was back then.
i mean, who has time to invest in themselves, or give themselves space to dream again when faced with all that?
i know i haven't.
But I truly believe that God is up to something, and He's nudging His daughters to rise again. To dream again.
And to remember who we are, deep down, beyond the disappointments & trials of the past few years.

you see the value in face to face connection, real hugs and lingering around the table.
you know nothing replaces late night belly laughs, wiping tears, laying hands on each other, and worshipping side by side.
if you feel that stirring too, than you are my people.
you know god is up to something even if you don't know
what the next step is yet. you also know you need a tribe around you to cheer you on, bounce ideas off of, and hold up your arms when things get hard.
and if you're anything like me, you've been longing for a special time away to recharge.
And we have just the thing.
Do you feel it too?
Are you ready to rise up, shake the dust off, and step into what God has for you next?
until now...
and you're invited!
ever since our last conference i've wished and dreamed that we could someday, somehow, gather together again, but it never felt like god was giving it the green light.
after much prayer & waiting, and then some more prayer & waiting,
i am giddy to announce
pursuit retreat 2024!

Let's face it, we aren't the same women that we were ten years ago, or even one year ago for that matter, and that's a good thing. Our lives have changed, we've grown a lot, and our priorities have shifted. Not to mention navigating a global crisis and taking on new roles we never before considered. One thing I'm sure we all feel is a deep longing for rest, rejuvenation & blank space. And that is exactly what we are intentionally creating for you. We've picked out a beautiful place in the hills of Tennessee for relaxing, resting and soaking in God's creation. Our schedule is loose, but filled with slow mornings, lingering meal times, worship, optional workshops, coaching, prayer, and encouraging one another. If you're looking for an uplifting place to rest and be encouraged, this is it.

There's just something indescribably amazing about finding your people. The ones who get you not because they've studied you, or spent years and years with you, but because in some way or another, they are you. They've had the same doubts, same fears, same dreams, same failures, same victories. Just like you, they love the Lord, they love their families, and they also know God has placed big dreams on their hearts. They get you because they've walked very similar roads. They know the juggle of getting kids fed, keeping a home, and working on a project late at night. So even if you've never met before, within a few minutes, it feels like you're lifelong friends. Pursuit has hosted 7 conferences and over 20 retreats over the past 11 years, and helping women find their people has been the very heartbeat of why we do what we do. Are you ready to find your people? If you are, come join us. We've been waiting for you.
Let's just be honest. Life now looks completely different for most of us than what we dreamed it would five or ten years ago. Maybe life and marriage and parenting has you feeling ragged and exhausted. Maybe you started a business back then that you are still running but it looks different than you thought. Maybe you've laid it down to invest in your family. Maybe God has led you to pivot to something else altogether. And maybe, just maybe, something you've worked on didn't turn out the way you wanted, and it's left you heartbroken and nervous to step out, or dream again.
Whatever your story has entailed, we know God isn't done with you yet. He has more dreams for you, and we want to cultivate a space for you to hear from God, dream again, and be encouraged and supported to step out again.
We will be offering several optional workshops with experts in those fields to help you navigate next steps in an area you may be interested in. Some of the workshop options will be:
* Publishing a book
* Creating a course, retreat or membership
* Podcasting
* Developing & Selling Products
* Creating a brand that connects with your people
Because of the intimacy of our retreat. These workshops will be very hands on, and almost like coaching sessions. They will be at different times, so you can choose to go to all or none. Our mentors will have plenty of time set aside to help you work on whatever area you are needing.
and it wouldn't be a proper Pursuit Event without our
Art of Community Celebration Dinner
So rest assured we're already dreaming up one for our retreat ... Nashville Style!
Here are some videos of past events. This retreat will be all the wonderful parts of our big events, with the intimacy that comes with a small group. We are so excited!
