re(treat) yourself

Our 2019 was a sell out.

We know how much these retreats have inspired attendees and given them the tools to navigate these uncertain times from a place of strength.

Is this weekend for me?

The short answer? Absolutely yes.

Whether you’re divorced, widowed, empty-nested, contemplating retirement or a job change, sandwiched or simply coping with change in your life, all of us need deep relaxation, reflection, and rejuvenation for challenging times. This intimate weekend retreat is led by two master coaches will meet you where you are, and with the support of the group, move you towards where you want to be.

Using meditation, mindful movement, coaching exercises, and journaling, what’s waiting to emerge will be brought forth. Your intuitive source will be renewed. When you open your heart to the facts of your life and ask for help, you will find your intuitive self is there to restore your faith and teach you how to live with courage.

“I now have clarity on what’s important in my life and what I need to change to make it happen.” – 2018 Rise Up Retreat attendee

Speakers

Paula Harris

It’s not often you meet a financial advisor who is also an accomplished cheesemaker, yogi, local hero and wonder woman. But those are just some of the many reasons why we’re not like everyone else. As WH Cornerstone’s co-founder, Paula Harris is part financial therapist and part dream architect who takes great pride in helping her clients, particularly women, obtain financial peace of mind and independence. In her “past life”, Paula established Campus Recruiting programs at Walker Digital (founding company of Priceline.com) and First USA, Bank One’s credit card division, now Chase and served as Director of Recruiting and HR for Braxton Associates, a division of Deloitte Consulting in Boston. You can also add opening Bain & Company’s Dallas office as one of the many places she’s left her footprint.

Jane Pollak

Jane Pollak is a living example of how to turn a passion into a thriving business. A successful entrepreneur, public speaker, author and business coach, Jane launched her business career in the unlikely field of egg decoration! Jane’s story is an odyssey that led her from remote crafts fairs to an invitation from the White House and appearances on NBC’s Today Show. Her passion gradually shifted to coaching other creative professionals and helping them achieve greater success. In addition to being a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach, she offers a unique vantage point because of her success in transforming her art into a profitable business. The lessons Jane learned along the way led her to share her story and give advice to struggling entrepreneurs, traveling the country and beyond. Her book, “Soul Proprietor: 101 Lessons from a Lifestyle Entrepreneur,” has inspired and motivated business owners since its publication in 2001. Jane can be seen sharing inspirational, yet practical, lessons with creative professionals at TEDxMillRiver. Read what Jane had to say about last year’s Rise Up Retreat here.

Our Host and Sponsor

We’re not like everyone else…

And neither are you.

Our approach is innovative. Our firm is boutique. Our team is outstanding.

WH Cornerstone Investments started our Rise Up Retreats in 2017 as a reinvention retreat for widows.

For the past two years, we’ve hosted over twenty woman at our Rise Up Retreats. Our first year was held at the stunning Mirbeau Inn and Spa, where we welcomed widows as they navigated their life after the loss of a spouse. Last year, like this year, we invited women who were experiencing a curve ball in their life: a divorce, a move, motherhood, widowhood, retirement…when life changes, you deserve a chance to regroup and RISE UP. The retreat attendees enjoyed world class accommodations at the Wequasett Resort and Golf Club.
