You are a unique woman in the most powerful time of your life. There never has been and never will be anyone quite like you. And, it is truly your time to shine, to birth the fullness of who you were born to be!

YOU MAY BE:

  • In a transition (e.g., divorced, widowed, menopause, empty nest, retired, loss of meaning)
  • Yearning to re-enchant your life
  • Sensing there’s still a song in you
  • Feeling that now it’s really your turn
  • Inspired to birth something new
  • Called to make a difference, to leave a legacy for your children, grandchildren, the world
  • Seeking a spiritually nourishing get-away

A Retreat is a Gift a Woman Makes to Her Soul


Listen to a 2012 Retreat Participant

“If we do not tend to the needs of our souls to be refreshed… the wetlands and rainforests of our psyches turn into arid deserts.” —Jean Shinoda Bolen, M.D.

We are living in an era of UNPRECEDENTED STRESS. Life has become fast-paced, demanding, unpredictable, and often exhausting. Women are “multi-tasking” in an effort to keep up with society’s heart-pounding pace. Are we are doing more and enjoying life less?

RESEARCH SHOWS THAT HAPPIER WOMEN WILL THRIVE, THINK BETTER AND LIVE LONGER

“When it’s over I want to say all my life I was a bride, MARRIED to AMAZEMENT.”
—Mary Oliver from “When Death Comes”

Answers to Questions You May Have About Connie’s
Joy After 50+ Retreat

Q: What do you mean by joy?

A: Joy is what we feel in the absence of fear…that deep contentment, aliveness, and freedom that comes from connecting to life with love, trust, curiosity, gratitude and delight.

Q: What if I don’t know what my life calling is?

A: It’s perfectly natural to be in the “unknown” at 50+, when you are no longer identified with the “old identity” and your former life, but the “new self” has not yet whispered her way into your consciousness. The most important thing is to totally trust that you are on track. You will embrace the unfolding of a meaningful, inspiring life calling at this retreat.

Q: What if I have questions about the retreat or registration?

A: Send an email to connie@joyafterfifty.com or call 1 800-996-4006. We will be happy to help you.
