Cultivate
A Women Connect Retreat
CULTIVATE is a space for women who are building not just businesses, but lives rooted in intention, balance, and connection.
To cultivate is to intentionally nurture what you want to grow — your business, your confidence, your community, your purpose. It’s about slowing down long enough to enrich the soil of your life and leadership so that the results you harvest are sustainable, meaningful, and aligned with who you truly are.
Cultivate Represents
PURPOSEFUL GROWTH
Choosing depth over hustle.
CONNECTION
Surrounding yourself with women who inspire, challenge, and champion you.
REFLECTION
Pausing to realign your goals with your values.
EXPANSION
Stepping into your next level of success with clarity and courage.
At Women Connect, we believe transformation happens when women step away from the noise, surround themselves with others who dream big, and create space to reset, refocus, and rise.
This is your invitation to experience something extraordinary, the first-ever CULTIVATE: Women Connect Retreat: an intimate, high-end experience designed for women ready to elevate every area of their lives and businesses.

The Prosperity Blueprint: Taxes, Wealth, and the Future You Were Born to Build
The Prosperity Blueprint is a practical, founder-focused experience designed to help you lead with clarity and confidence around money. She guides you through redefining wealth on your terms, understanding your money mindset, and seeing tax strategy as a year-round growth tool, not a once-a-year task. You’ll learn how to spot tax overpayment, know when you’ve outgrown your CPA, use high-impact tax and compensation strategies, and align investing with your values through real estate, business ownership, and passion-led opportunities. The session brings wealth planning into real life by helping you map your future, set clear income and lifestyle goals, shift limiting beliefs, and step fully into your founder wealth identity. Through interactive exercises, hot-seat coaching, and a clear action plan, you’ll leave with direction, decisions, and the confidence to build wealth that supports your business, your life, and your legacy.

Soul Aligned Success
“Soul Aligned Success” is a powerful reimagining of how high-achieving women lead, grow, and thrive—without sacrificing their bodies, their truth, or their joy. While most business strategy focuses on masculine systems of scaling, productivity, and performance, this session invites participants to explore a new paradigm: feminine strategy rooted in emotional resonance, intuition, seasonal alignment, and embodiment. It’s not about abandoning structure—it’s about aligning strategy with soul. This talk blends soulful inquiry with actionable frameworks, helping women create a version of success that feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside. If you’re ready to build a business that reflects your deepest values and sustains your energy—not depletes it—this is your invitation.”

Vision: A Picture of the Future That Ignites Energy
Your potential is mostly invisible. That’s what makes it hard to identify and even harder to maximize. But what if you could have tools for exploring what you and those you lead are capable of? What if you had a process that could help you craft vision in a whole new way?
In this workshop style session, Shea will invite you into expanding what you once thought impossible, to realize and expand your vision with a new relationship to the gap between current reality and what is truly possible and next steps for making what seems impossible become just another average day.
