We resist the unknown, cling to our old identity, and feel the lack of safety in the unknown. This stands in the way of creating something new for ourselves, of offering our meaningful work, and of playing and finding joy in the unknown. But what if we could find the sacredness in this space?
We’re creating a powerful Art of Letting Go Retreat experience in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina, this October 19 - 21
The retreat will include:
- Connection, wonder, and play in the unknown — connect with an incredible group of people, all dedicated to creating change in the world, just like you
- A training method for finding the opportunity of staying and finding meaning in the unknown
- Teachings on why and how we cling
- Reflections to get present to the impact of this clinging
- Practice in creating in the unknown
- Creating sacred ritual for uncertainty & focus
- Experiences designed to break us through our old patterns, into possibility
- A gorgeous retreat center in the mountains of North Carolina, with accommodation and spaces surrounded by lush nature
- All meals included: fresh, healthy cuisine crafted by a chef
- Training with Leo — a world class expert in mindful fearlessness and shifting our ingrained patterns
This is more than a getaway retreat. This is an adventure, with a group of people putting ourselves into uncertainty out of service for what we’d like to create in the world.
“Set your life on fire. Seek those who fan your flames.”

1. What about COVID-19 restrictions?
The world has learned to navigate increased uncertainty, and this Art of Letting Go Retreat is an invitation to continue to practice with that. We are not placing any Covid restrictions (like masking). However, we are asking all attendees to voluntarily take an over the counter Covid test within 48 hours of your arrival at the retreat center. We ask that you do not come to the retreat if you test positive for Covid.
2. What happens after I purchase?
Once you purchase your spot, you are booked! We'll send you emails soon with the information you need to prepare for your journey to the retreat.
3. Are the rooms shared with roommates?
Yes, included in the price of the intensive is a double occupancy room shared with a roommate — a fellow retreat participant.
4. Will there be Internet available?
Yes, there is wifi available throughout the premises … that said, we invite you to disconnect for as much of the time you’re with us. Disconnect so that you can connect with others, be present on the property, and get the full retreat experience. Work and messages will wait for you!
5. How many people will be allowed to attend?
This intensive will be capped at 50 participants — but about 20 of the spots will be held for Fearless Mastery mastermind members and alumni. Given the limited spots, we encourage you to dive in as soon as you can, before the retreat fills up.
6. What’s your refund policy?
Since there is limited space, we ask that you ONLY reserve a spot if you’re ready to dive in. There are no refunds, in service of your commitment to transformation.
7. Have more questions? Contact us!
You can email us at hello@zenhabits.net if you have questions.
