What is the Rest and Play Retreat?

You’ve built a successful career. You’re responsible. People depend on you.

But somewhere along the way, life became something you manage instead of something you truly enjoy.

The Rest & Play Retreat is for people who are ready to slow down, reconnect, and reset before burnout makes the decision for them.

When you join us, you’re investing in more than your own well-being.

A portion of every retreat ticket supports Rocky Mountain Ascent, a Colorado nonprofit that provides life-changing outdoor experiences for youth, families, and young adults facing adversity.

Through equitable, nature-based experiences, Rocky Mountain Ascent helps participants build resilience, restore confidence, and discover the healing power of the outdoors.

Together, we’re creating space for restoration, not only for ourselves, but for others who deserve the same opportunity.

A portion of every ticket sold will be donated to Rocky Mountain Ascent, a Colorado nonprofit dedicated to making the healing power of the outdoors accessible to youth, families, and young adults facing adversity.

Rocky Mountain Ascent creates equitable, nature-based experiences that help participants build confidence, resilience, and a deeper connection to themselves, their community, and the natural world. Their programs provide opportunities for people who may not otherwise have access to the life-changing experiences that the outdoors can offer.

When you reserve your spot, you’re not only investing in your own well-being—you’re helping someone else experience the same restorative power of nature.

Together, we can create a ripple effect of rest, resilience, and hope.
