Come Alive Retreat


Don’t ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive, and go do that, because what the world needs is people who have come alive.
— Howard Thurman, The Living Wisdom of Howard Thurman: A Visionary for Our Time

Due to high demand, we have set new dates for this event, rescheduled from October 2024. Mark your calendars for this 5-day retreat in Bend, Oregon in October 2025. Email us below to reserve your spot!

In this transformative retreat, we'll embark on a profound exploration of self-discovery and expression. Led by renowned facilitators Kelly Moore, Ph.D., and Veta Goler, Ph.D, we'll delve into powerful practices that reveal your soul's deepest callings and overcome the obstacles that have hindered your fullest self-expression.

This retreat offers a unique and holistic approach to unearthing and sharing your innate gifts with the world. It blends Kelly's expertise in her Accompanied Blueprint for supporting caregivers and youth in flourishing with Veta's mastery of helping people enrich their lives through self-love, meaning, and purpose via contemplative practices. Kelly and Veta will guide you through a deeply immersive experience by drawing from their personal journeys and enlightening philosophical discussions.
