The Wider Circle

Welcome to all of you who are new to Mama Renew and our Virtual Retreat.  Over 100 of you have joined in the past 24 hours, a total of 510 women.  Hosting the virtual retreat was a last minute inspiration, and I didn’t anticipate the way in the wider circle of you enjoying the Virtual Retreat would affect our own experience for the 8 of us here on retreat at Hollyhock.

While we are growing & learning, a wider circle of you are finding creative ways to bring the Mama Renew spirit into your daily lives.  It is helping us know that the conversation will continue once we return home, and perhaps helping you to envision the day when you will be one of the lucky women to join us here.  In an unexpected way, we are feeling your presence holding us – thank you.

If you’ve just joined us and aren’t sure how this works, here are the basics:

1. Enjoy our posts this weekend featuring Virtual Retreat activites to help you have a taste of what we’re doing here.

2. Comment on our blog or facebook page to be entered to win one of our fabulous prizes listed below (contest ends Monday, May 30th at 10 pm).

2. Multiple comments = More chances to win!
