I had the profound pleasure of talking with my friends Kathy Silveira Escobar and Phyllis Mathis on their podcast . I was excited to be able to share about my work and how trauma healing for social justice becoming a big theme. Our big take away is how empowering it is to be able to cultivate greater inner space to be able to host the feeling of discomfort. Ah the healing power of inner and outer spaciousness is vast and inspiring!!

We're so proud of our 5 star reviews!! Glen, a recent guest who stayed the retreat house June 9-12, 2023 said:
”Our big crew loved Holly’s place! We had family coming in from different states to meet up and Holly graciously allowed an early check-in for one of our crew. The place was super clean! Smelled clean, was spotless, with clean linens. Towels and soaps on every pillow, coffee and teas provided, dry firewood stacked for use, hot tub was nice and clean and ready to go! The kitchen was ready with all utensils, gadgets, and spices. It’s a great space for a large group of people! We congregated on the back patio for smores and hot tubing, played cards and games a the picnic table on the porch. Plenty of napping was done on the porch swing and comfortable couches. Kitchen gatherings on the bar stools and kitchen chairs. It’s just a few minutes uphill from the NOC and all the outdoor activities. We highly recommend Holly’s place!”
