Nature Medicine Retreat

An experience to design the ecosystem you thrive in.

June 9-14th, Red Lodge, Montana

We've spent a millienia shaping nature.

What if, for a few days, you let nature shape you?

There is intelligence to nature.

Ecosystems are nature's intelligence in action, designed to support life.

Ecosystems teach us how to live in right relationship with ourselves,

our neighbors, the creatures, plants and web that binds us all.

When conditions deteriorate, species die. Life dries up. It takes more effort to produce less.

Yet as humans, we aren't taught to tend to our ecosystem.

We're taught to work harder, to force what's not natural, to keep improving ourselves.

We learn to ignore the conditions we need to thrive and wonder

why we feel depleted, drained and overtilled.

We forget that we're a part of natural intelligence, not apart.

It's time to remember.

Cultural programming says to think about yourself as an individual organism.

If something isn't working, it's your fault.

You haven't worked hard enough, aren't smart enough, didn't do it the 'right way',

your vision board is too crowded, your incense stinks and you need to be more

careful but also simultaneously more charismatic.

Then . . . everything will be okay.

But often the challenge isn’t you.

It’s the soil - the conditions around you.

You may be capable, experienced, and ready to grow and still feel stuck.

If a garden isn’t thriving, we don’t scold the plants.

We look at the ecosystem.

Is the soil fertile?

Are the roots crowded?

Is there enough sunlight and water?

We don’t question the plant’s worthiness. We adjust the conditions.

WHEN YOU'RE IN AN ECOSYSTEM THAT DOESN'T FIT:

~ You’ve built a life that looks 'good on paper' but you keep catching yourself thinking, is this it?

~ You’re tired in a way that sleep doesn’t fix and you're just going through the motions.

~ You say yes out of habit—caretaking, managing, holding it all together, but feel a growing resentment you don’t quite know what to do with.

~ You’ve outgrown parts of your life (work, relationships, roles) but don’t yet know what would actually fit instead.

~ You keep pushing off what you really want because it feels unclear, impractical, or like it might disrupt too much.

WHEN YOU'RE IN A THRIVING ECOSYSTEM:

~ Like a plant in the right climate, growth happens naturally, you’re no longer forcing what fits.

~ Energy circulates instead of depletes, what you give is replenished by what you receive.

~ Your roots go deeper, not wider. There’s a sense of stability, clarity, and grounded momentum.

~ You make decisions from clarity instead of obligation. You’re no longer organizing your life around what everyone else needs or expects.

~ There’s a sense of aliveness and expansion—more color, more creativity, more of you coming online.

The Conditions Around Us Are Changing

We're in the midst of a meaning crisis.

Disillusionment is growing by the day & we don't know who or what to trust anymore.

We feel more isolated now than ever before in spite of being hyperconnected.

Technology is advancing faster than we can physiologically or psychologically keep up (the average person is exposed to 74 gigabytes of data per day - that's 16 movies).

Our brains' neurotransmitters are being commercially hijacked for profit.

And the fabricated realities that come to us through devices paint a world of 'us and them'.

Creating the conditions for you to thrive has never been more important.

The time is now.

Together, we'll design your unique ecosystem so you can thrive.

The first step is stepping out of the noise long enough to find your center.

Spend a week nestled in the mountains of Montana within the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, under dark night skies and wide-open landscapes in a beautiful mountain home that borders national forest.

Cultivate receptivity to allow ideas and insights to come to you (instead of pushing or forcing). Let nature regulate your nervous system.

You’ll step out of the noise of headlines, constant input and everyday life.

And into a living ecosystem.

Not to escape the world.

But to gain perspective and remember how you want to participate in it.

The Experience

Your Ecosystem

Designed from the inside Out

Evaluate and tend to your ecosystem through guided exercises, discussions & observations throughout the week:

~ Consider your environment from a whole new perspective, understand why & where things get sticky and how to shift it

~ Identify where you’re spending energy and if it feeds you.

~ Clarify what’s nourishing you, where energy is leaking and what needs adjustment

~ Align your ecosystem to where & what you want to spend your energy on without falling into the trap of pushing harder or trying to “improve yourself”

Create conditions conducive to more life.

Once in a lifetime adventure

Learn from ecosystems in action . . .

Through a private, guided tour we'll observe the iconic wild horses of the Pryor Mountains in the very first protected horse management area in the United States.

Explore how their environment shapes behavior, collaboration, and resilience and what they can teach you about designing your own ecosystem.

Enjoy the wonder of seeing wild horses in their natural habitat and the amazing views from the top of the Pryors. There should be new spring babies to see too!

We'll visit the Yellowstone Wildlife Sanctuary to learn how humans have curated an ecosystem for animals that are unable to return to the wild and are given a forever home at the sanctuary.

Enjoy seeing the animals, the interconnectedness of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem and how a small group of people followed their hearts to create big impact through this sanctuary that is now over 40 years old.

Who knows what this may inspire in you?!?

Community

The kind of people that show up to a Rebel Sage Retreat are kind-hearted, curious, smart, inspirational, attuned to and care about the world around them, enjoy a good belly laugh and are up for an adventure.

If you've been craving genuine connection with a group of humans who have your back and can support your learning, you're in the right place.

S: Say Yes - Claim it!

Plant your seed! Committing to your vision is step one. Your YES is what starts to move mountains, spark synchronicities & tell the Universe exactly what & who to send you.

E: Embody & Energize your possibility

Energy makes or breaks possibilities. You will identify & embody the Essential Energy that feels VITAL & ALIVE and activates you to become the steward of your seed. From this energy, your perspective shifts - the impossible becomes possible, you see new opportunities & solutions appear with ease.

E: Evaluate your ecosystem

If a garden isn't thriving, we don't scold the plants. We adjust the conditions. Same for you (this is one of the most overlooked reasons that we stall out). We'll assess what's feeding & depleting you and what conditions need to shift for you & your seed to thrive. You'll be supported by like-hearted humans who get it & want you to succeed.

D: Design your best next step

While big moves can look sexy from the outside, what actually moves the needle are small, consistent, nervous system-sized steps that have you feeling confident, not hungover. Together, we'll design the next step that has you feeling clear, excited & sure-footed by the time you leave for home.

You'll walk away from this retreat with:

  • A clear blueprint for the unique ecosystem you thrive in so that you experience more ease, flow & satisfaction.

  • Tangible next steps for implementing your ecosystem shifts when you return home so you're not left wondering what to do with your newfound clarity.

  • Inspiration, insight and perspective from observing ecosystems in action — both human and more-than-human.

  • Feeling refreshed and revitalized, regulated in a way only nature and genuine connection can provide.

  • Confidence to stop questioning what you need to 'improve about yourself' and instead consider your environment as a key factor in your success (one of the most overlooked pitfalls for competent, capable & successful women).

  • A clear head, having stepped away from the noise and chaos of everyday life.

  • Connected to what's calling you now.

This is a week for recalibration, slowing down and letting nature shape you.

Testimonials

When you say yes to retreat, your whole world starts to change for the better.

And, what happens on retreat never stays on retreat - magic creates a ripple effect.

The biggest obstacle I had to overcome to commit to this life-changing experience was actually, me.  I could find a lot of excuses why it wasn't the right time to go on a retreat; money, time, family, even other people’s judgments but in the end I knew those were all just excuses I was creating out of fear of the unknown and the challenge of spiritual growth. 

I was at a point in my life where I had done a lot of work (therapy, counseling programs, books, etc) but still felt stuck.  This retreat and Lisa's guidance was the spiritual resuscitation my system needed to move forward in my life and my spiritual and emotional growth.   If you are at a point where you are ready for true change then this is exactly the experience that can change your life.

 

- Erin H.

There’s something about the space that she holds. It’s very safe, very sacred, and really deep. And yet we do this really deep, profound work with a sense of playfulness and humor. You can’t beat her humor. I knew I wanted to work with Lisa the moment I met her, and I’m clear that I will take an opportunity to do it again in the future.

- Ashlie W.

The most powerful thing I took away from this experience was that I was finally able to heal my heart. To really let go of a relationship that had been very difficult to end, and one that still weighed heavily on me.

 

As a result of going on retreat with Lisa, I am now able to approach life and making decisions with greater clarity rather than getting stuck in emotions and indecision.

 

If someone were on the fence about retreating with Lisa, my advice would be to GO! Yes, stepping into the unknown is scary, but it is so much more gentle an experience than you would expect.  A week on retreat with Lisa will do more for you than years in therapy, and will teach you about yourself in such a compassionate way.

- Dr. Peter B.

Learning from Lisa is such a beautiful process. I love her presence and ability to listen with her whole heart and being. And while holding you in that love, she also pushes you. She’s going to challenge you. I appreciate that. She’s going to call bullshit when she sees bullshit. And that’s kind of what we’re all here for. If we didn’t want to be challenged or pushed, we wouldn’t be doing this kind of stuff. I really love how she brings her whole heart and presence to the process.

Wonder when it's the

The world isn't going to slow down.

And the solution isn't for you to speed up.

Join me on retreat to intentionally design your ecosystem to support your thriving.

If not now, when?

Hi! I'm Lisa.

My gift is helping people steward heart-driven possibilities from idea to manifestation — by cultivating nervous system capacity, trust in your own wisdom, practical skills, and an ecosystem that supports what wants to grow through you.

I created this retreat to be an experience that reminds you of the wonder and awe that nature inspires when you pay attention, and to (re)connect to what's already inside of you that knows how to thrive in fertile soil.

By stepping out of the noise, you come closer to what matters most and can realign your resources for greater fulfillment, health, relationships and abundance.

If not now, when?

Let's do this - together.

Just do it! The insights, transformations, and possibilities that this kind of experience opens up for you are priceless. I can't think of a better investment in yourself than something like this.

- Katelyn C.

Lisa holds a beautifully supportive and transformative space. There's some magic that happens in a group of women committed to supporting each other through change and Lisa provides the guidance and wisdom to make it happen. Also, the food was delicious. It felt like a treat to effortlessly eat well and be away from all the responsibilities of day-to-day life.

- Rachel L

A wise person once told me that there are 2 reasons that we might hesitate to say yes to coaching or a transformational retreat: 1) we lack confidence in the retreat leader to hold space or 2) we lack confidence in ourselves to change. You can be absolutely confident that Lisa will hold space for your transformation with ease, skill, honesty, laughter, and laser like intuition. And you will discover that your confidence has been waiting, perhaps a long time, for you to learn that you are braver, wiser, and more ready to live your desire than you could have ever imagined. Life is short. Go for it!

- Janet K.

You will benefit from this in one way or another! It will not be wasted money, time, or energy. In fact, the opposite! It will give you energy and move you forward because you cannot unlearn by yourself.
