Our intensive retreat provides an intimate setting where you will get high impact solutions to everyday relationship problems and challenges. We help you understand what is causing the challenges. Relationships are painful! You will learn what you REALLY want and need in relationships and know how to ask for it. If you are working through the loss of a relationship, we will help you calm your anxiety and find a way forward. If you are working on letting go of codependency, we will help you learn how to take care of yourself. If you don’t know how to move forward, we will help you find the answers you need. With the small group dynamic, we help you with your unique storyline and specific needs.

At our retreat, you will be able to work both on yourself and your relationships. With the help of your personal PIVOT coaching advocate, you will be able to finally understand the patterns formed through different stages of your life, identify problems, create repairs, and find emotional freedom. Our coaches will provide the support you need to change unhealthy behaviors that might be sabotaging your relationships.

Our programs offer important advantages for our participants which include:

• Immediate solutions with long-term benefits. Our coaching approach is adjusted to each individual, allowing us to offer you individualized solutions using our curriculum. You will receive noticeable, high-impact results, as well as permanent changes.
• Enhanced confidence. Understanding yourself better will have a positive effect on your confidence that will reflect on your relationships and help you establish a deep sense of intimacy without doubting your choices, behavior, and inner self. You will PIVOT from confusion to clarity.
• Increased self-compassion. By learning to accept yourself while also changing detrimental behavioral and cognitive patterns, you will be able to forgive yourself for possible mistakes, appreciate yourself for who you are, and see yourself from a different perspective.
• Healthy relationship choices. Our individual coaching will enhance your personal growth and your relationship with others. You will learn how to make decisions that are good for you personally and those around you.

This innovative type of coaching entails intensive sessions with a personal advocate on a daily basis. It’s typically conducted over a limited period of time during which you reveal personal issues that hinder your self-growth and affect your ability to maintain a healthy relationship with others. During these intensive workshops, you actively work on changing negative patterns with the help, support, and guidance of your coaching advocates.

We employ this type of coaching approach at The Glass House, during our individual and couples retreat. Unlike traditional forms of therapy, our intensive coaching allows you to focus on your progress with complete concentration and absolute commitment during a five-day period. You will be able to achieve immediate, high-impact results that will reframe your mindset and establish a new foundation toward your personal development and relationships with others.
