Boot Camps are a great way to jump start your transition by spending an exhilarating, energizing, empowering, informative, self-reflective weekend learning new skills, discovering (often) long buried desires, and exploring exciting options for this next stage of your life.

We are proud to deliver our Boot Camps to Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health, in weekend intensives twice a year, that enable us to provide you with an even greater level of excellence in an outstanding learning environment.

Our annual Retreat is a wonderful escape from your daily routine, and immerses you in the luxury of taking delicious time for YOU,

without the many distractions of your day-to-day life.

We're honored to partner with the fabulous Hibiscus Tours for Women in a week-long Retreat in exotic Costa Rica designed specifically for wise outrageous women only.

"Lin's enthusiasm just took me in. I liked the way Boot Camp flowed from one experience to the next, with time to reflect on what I want, and a few "A-Ha's' along the way."

"Boot Camp taught me to live life on my own terms. I changed my thinking, and my life began to change dramatically. Best of all, I've tapped into my passion, and I'm creating the life I always wanted to live."

"Lin is an inspirational, energetic coach, whose warmth and 'realness' creates a supportive and caring atmosphere. I especially walked away with a more positive attitude about myself, and positive way to look at life. I can make it happen if I want! The Retire Retirement Boot Camp gave me some great tools that I can work with and keep refining. I still have a ways to go, but as a result of Lin's support, I feel more comfortable than going at it alone. What a wonderful, motivational workshop."
