Are you leading from a place of depletion?

This Sacred Space retreat is for faith-centered leaders and executives who are ready to pause, reconnect with God and themselves, and return to their leadership with renewed clarity, peace, and purpose.

It gives leaders room to renew their souls without losing momentum in life or leadership. You don’t need to stay depleted or disconnected—just step into sacred space to renew your connection with God, yourself, and others.

Sacred Space Retreat

Why This Retreat Is Different

  • Break the Cycle of Depletion:
    Move from a state of reactive exhaustion to proactive peace, allowing you to lead from a place of strength rather than survival.
  • Realign with Your Core Purpose:
    Cut through the noise of daily operations to reconnect with the "why" behind your leadership, ensuring your actions align with your faith and values.
  • Experience Uninterrupted Stillnes:
    In a world that demands constant availability, this is your dedicated permission to pause, breathe, and reset without the pressure of immediate deliverables.
  • Gain Strategic Clarity Through Reflection:
    Transform complex leadership challenges into clear, actionable insights by creating mental space for deep, guided reflection.
  • Return to Your Team with Renewed Energy:
    Leave with more than just ideas—leave with the spiritual and emotional stamina to inspire others and sustain momentum.

I have attended at least three retreats taught by and facilitated by Dr. Claire Anneliese Smith. I find her teaching to be clear, logical, and theologically sound. I appreciate that despite a meticulously planned agenda and curriculum, she listens to the questions and life stories of all participants and weaves them into the theme of the conference.

I was truly blessed by all the love and kindness that was shown to me at the last retreat I attended. We had so much fun just talking and sharing our life experiences with one another. Claire had so many spot on inspirational stories and thoughts, I truly left feeling uplifted and blessed
