Living from the Core
Retreat
Your Core is Calling You…
it is asking you to shift.
From survival, stress and too many “juggling it all alone” moments
to a golden opportunity to
THRIVE & FLOURISH
I promise you, you would not be reading this right now if you were not being “called.”
This is your body’s way of asking you to course correct
by
activating and living from your Core.
I have chosen a very intimate, rejuvenating and inspiring venue to host this deeply healing retreat. This is the BEST of what I have to offer for transformation in a safe, powerful group setting. This is purposefully a small group so that maximum results can be achieved.

Here’s What Past Participants Have Said
“If you’re already thinking about it, that is your soul telling you that you need it. Listen to yourself! Give yourself permission!”
“Still feeling so many positive effects from the retreat. Not exaggerating when I say it was life changing. I’ve been thinking for a while about changing jobs but hadn’t pulled the trigger. A lot of the questions you posed to us really helped me to focus on what I’m looking for – one of my words was “direction” because I’ve felt very lost. Anyway, I applied for a few jobs and I’m excited to say I’ve accepted a new role! I’m very excited and I think it will be a very positive change and wanted to thank you for being a part of it. ”
“Please allow yourself the time, space, freedom and love this retreat offers. It is self-care at it’s finest. You will not regret it!”
“Go outside your comfort zone. Sara is so adept at making everyone feel comfortable.”
“You’ve got to at least go once to see what all the “awesome” is about. It’s hard to put into words how much change has occurred within me in the last 24 hours. It’s the motivation I’ve needed to engage change.”
“Just do it! Don’t have any expectations- you will get what you need and what you don’t even know you need!”

FAQ’s
COVID Policy: Per Richmond Hill policy, masks will be required throughout the retreat when we are inside the building and social distancing of 6 ft will be practiced. There will be a screening Richmond Hill will perform before/upon arrival. Significant enhanced cleaning will be done by Richmond Hill before, during and after our arrival. They have a full kitchen, and enhanced COVID standards are also practiced throughout the kitchen and dining facility. Per Dr. Sara Smith Wellness, LLC: full vaccination is strongly recommended to attend and you may be asked about vaccination status prior to arrival (in private form) in order for Richmond Hill & Dr. Sara to make the safest arrangements and plans for all attending.
Refunds: This is a non-refundable retreat and if you are unable to attend after purchase your retreat investment can be transformed into other offerings such as private sessions with Dr. Sara Smith or Private Retreats (online or in Gloucester, VA). **But! If the retreat is cancelled due to COVID or Richmond Hill’s policy regarding COVID, you will be refunded minus a 10% processing fee.
Rooms: Richmond Hill was once a monastery and the rooms are meant to be modest. They are single bed rooms, a desk and soaked in years of prayer. Bathrooms are located outside the room. There are more rooms than bathrooms, and at times you may share with another woman from the retreat (not at the same time ;)) but due to COVID Richmond Hill will try to reduce this happening to the best of their ability. More about the rooms will be shared prior to the retreat.
What can I expect?
Read the testimonials above, and I am also happy to put you in touch with someone who has attended before. I will be doing a video to further describe what to expect…which is difficult because the results, insights and wisdom that happens during these retreats will shift you forever. It can be overwhelming to describe, but we will all try our best and is something that is well worth experiencing if you are up for some intrigue!!
A little more about Richmond Hill:
Richmond Hill is known to be one, if not THE, most sacred grounds in all of Richmond VA since indigenous times. During the Civil War, a group of nuns was sent here to pray for the country and specifically the effect slavery. There has been a continuous, never-ending chain of prayer for the City of Richmond, our country, racial reconciliation and so much more since this time. This is an ecumenical active community and many people devote portions of their life to live at Richmond Hill, serve and hear The Call to care for the most painful parts of our humanity and history. They pray 3 times/day and during your retreat you are invited to join me in the Chapel for this prayer time. You are not required to attend, but out of respect for the sacred mission of Richmond Hill, you can engage in meaningful silent time in the chapel or elsewhere with the purpose to send loving, healing energy to the brokenness within the fabric of our humanity.
