The Forward Shift Retreat

A day for boundaries, clarity, and becoming.

Saturday, April 10, 2027 Β· 10am – 3pm Β· The HCΒΊ Studio, Colorado Springs Β· 18 seats only

The heart behind it

Why boundaries, why now

For me, setting boundaries has always been about protection β€” of my heart, and my energy. When I don't have clear boundaries around what I will and won't allow into my life, my expectations get skewed. My fight-or-flight response activates. I start to panic.

But boundaries also do something quieter: they let us know who we are and what we actually want β€” so we stop comparing our lives to everyone else's. There's peace in that. Room to actually enjoy your life, and to focus on God's plan for you, not God's plan for someone else.

That's what this day is for.

β€” Sharon, Salt & Arrows

What the day holds

Teaching, practice, and a little rest

Small by design β€” 18 women, real conversation, not a lecture hall.

01

Teaching & reflection

Grounded in Scripture, built around protection, identity, and peace.

02

Art, woven in

A creative, hands-on piece of the day β€” not a add-on, part of how we process.

03

A moment for the body

Because boundaries live in the nervous system too, not just the mind.

04

An optional mocktail hour

Stay after for a toast together, or head home β€” no pressure either way.
