This trip is something I will hold close in my heart always. Since coming back, I been faced with huge challenges and am absolutely convinced that this trip was all part of a greater plan to help me.

Because of Ecuador, I was able to lead this difficult chapter with confidence. My heart has opened up. This in turn has brought my family closer together.

The journey continues but I definitely have felt rejuvenated and revitalized. The experiences were so affirming for me as a person. I can get myself to a place where I feel pretty minimal if left to my own devises and the awakening process has pulled me out of that and I have felt much more confident in who I am and who I am working toward being.

I came home a more confident person and actually like myself more than when I walked out the door to go to Ecuador. The edification that I felt when I returned has lasted since I first came home.

The retreat was profoundly moving and the experience of being with a group of such incredible women – exploring our Awakening together – enriched my personal experience enormously. The journey accelerated personal growth and opened me up to new possibilities for my life.

Do you have days when you know there is more? More to learn, see, know. Days when you want to allow and offer more? Awakening in Ecuador engages you in a new conversation. One that is deeply connected to the Earth, enabling openings that surprise and delight. Moving out of your Western comfort zone into a transformation rooted in trust that serves you in your relationships, your work and your heart. It is a journey about possibility that embeds itself in your psyche. This is not a trip for creating memories, this is a journey that creates.

The mountains of Ecuador have a magical feel! As you look around it is so green, a little misty and fresh. A mood of openness, curiosity, and possibility is immediately created. At that point it is a matter of guidance from Debbie and Mimi to help ready you for transition in your own personal self- awareness. The possibilities grow with each introduction and adventure laid before you. The experience of this awakening will be with you forever!

The week long journey in Ecuador with Mimi and Debbie was no ordinary trip. It was an amazing mixture of experiencing Ecuador's culture up close and personal, absorbing energy from its unusual and magnificent nature, and using the inspiration to delve deep inside my self (with caring guidance). The adventure was extraordinary--and impossible to find on my own.
