Summary
Today I want to talk to you about retreats and how attending business retreats has helped me grow and get ahead in my own business.
It's easy to think a retreat is just a fun trip, but there's so much more to it than hanging out in hot tubs, drinking and eating nice food. So how can you make sure you're getting the most out of every retreat?
What You'll Learn In This Episode:
- How to be strategic about the retreats you attend, who you want to meet, what you can take from a retreat that you can't get in group courses or 1:1 coaching and why you need to commit to implementing what you learn.
- Why business retreats are an invaluable opportunity to network, build connections, and surround yourself with aspirational like-minded business owners that inspire you.
- How to ensure you don't waste the opportunity to learn, ask for help and observe the challenges other business owners are facing. You might just be the perfect person to help them solve that problem!
- Being open, vulnerable and friendly at retreats has helped me grow my business and improve my mindset, so whichever retreats you're booked on this year this is how to make sure you get everything you can from that experience.

| 0:29.6 | Hello, hello, Lisa here with this week's podcast. And I want to talk to you this week about retreats and really how I used retreats to get ahead in business because they're not just |
| 0:36.0 | a fun holiday, which I think is what a lot of people |
| 0:38.7 | see them as and they don't get the most out of them. So we want to talk to you about if you're going |
| 0:43.0 | on any retreats this year, how to get the most out of the business retreats that you go on. |
| 0:48.3 | Because when I started in business, I was really strategic about what I paid for. And retreats were one of those |
| 0:57.4 | things that I did pay for because I could see strategically how I could get a lot more out of them |
| 1:05.4 | than say if I did a course or worked with a coach one to one or anything like that. I did do |
| 1:10.8 | those things as well. |
| 1:11.9 | But this was definitely, retreats was definitely something that I thought, yeah, this could work well. |

| 1:35.2 | them, but the people that come on my retreats, I'm one of those people that are really, like, |
| 1:40.5 | I'm a people watcher. I'm really aware of what's going on. And I can see the people that |
| 1:44.9 | are doing really well, like using that retreat to the best of their ability so that they get the |
| 1:51.3 | most out of it. So why retreats? Why did I even start with retreat? Well, it was because I couldn't |
| 1:57.5 | afford, if I'm honest, to be on the masterminds that I really wanted to be on. |
| 2:01.2 | I would look at people who were people that I would love to have been in their mastermind, |
