In this episode of Talking Smack 415, I interview Shawn Forbes from Looking Glass Retreats.  Looking Glass Retreats are retreats to help you truly see yourself.  A place where you can be seen, heard and held.   Shawn a former fashion industry corporate executive is now an entrepreneur.  We talk smack about her path to creating Looking Glass Retreats and what's it like working for yourself alongside one of your besties.  She walks us through a retreat experience: healthy meals, yoga,  art therapy, skincare,  urban gardening, sound baths and more. You're going to want to sign up for her next one in September! And there's a special discount code for $200 off the September retreat LGRETREATS.  I'm going to sign up for sure.  Shawn shares that the connections people are craving are made at the retreats.  Plus she talks about the best retreat accessory ever. You can find all things Looking Glass here:https://www.lookingglassretreat.com/and @lookingglassretreat

Retreat yourself with Shawn Forbes from Looking Glass Retreats

Shawn Forbes spent ten highly successful years as a fashion director at Macys, an expert in the color, texture and intuition of fashion. As an executive at Levis, she loved the people she worked with but was not doing those creative things she most enjoyed. As the bread winner and provider for her Bay Area family, she could not easily leave the paycheck and insurance. Then, she was laid off (along with 700 others). Yet, instead of dread and fear, Shawn felt relief and enormous opportunity to explore her unique gifts and use them to help others become their best self. On this Swan Dive, we explore how being pushed off the cliff can actually become a swing of joy.   Share your Swan Dive at www.swandive.us
