The Power of Making Commitments - Retreats
Sixteen retreats have been held since 2012, the final one was in November 2022. The magic was in the array of women, 144 of them – all ages, with socioeconomic and ethnic variety enriching the experience for everyone. To keep that diversity, acceptance to retreats was based on many factors, not just the desire to be there, although that was paramount! During a retreat ample time is devoted to personal reflection, with the chance to take the time to be alone with your own thinking.

What exactly was a Principle Quest Retreat?
A series of interactive formats with a maximum of 10 women of all ages and backgrounds.
A facilitated journey based upon the principles and skills of loving.
A chance to:
- Renew
- Discover
- Confront
- Resolve
- Open up
- Create
- Strengthen
- Unravel
- Soar and alight -- where and how you wish in your own unique principle quest, not sooner or later than you are ready for, not bigger or smaller than you can dream, not easier or harder than you can handle, all happening in a safe place with other women drawn to this same endeavor.
What were the goals for a retreat?
- Build a safe and trusting community of ten women for our time together.
- Define more precisely your most deeply held principles/values and how closely aligned your principles are with your behavior and actions
- Receive clarity, feedback and/or support on a current issue
- Based on the self-discovery and better understanding gleaned during the weekend, make a number of commitments, both long term and short term
What was the cost to attend?
There was no fee to attend. The Principle Quest Foundation underwrote each woman's attendance because the retreat served the mission of the foundation, namely to mentor and inspire women to be courageous, offering them tools to change the world of work, their own life and society for the better.
