Real Voices from the Fire

These reflections come directly from participants in our retreats and firewalking experiences.

“During the Wellness and Empowerment Retreat, I took a very painful first step toward healing emotional trauma I've carried for more than 35 years. The endorphin and dopamine release after the glass walk was incredible. This experience has empowered me to face my fears and start my healing journey.”

Stephanie Stafford

“This retreat has taken me way out of my comfort zone, but I have loved every minute of it. It is truly empowering. My recovery was a secret, but for 11 years now, I have worked as a certified peer support specialist. The retreat has helped me grow and continue my journey of recovery.”

Tracy Effler

“The arrow breaking and glass walking bring me back to my body, helping me overcome the separation between my mind and body. The experience was surprisingly calming and empowering.”

John Hughes IV

“The firewalk taught me a lot about myself and the strength I actually have. I just have to dig deep and pull it up. It was awe-inspiring and empowering. I've walked on fire four times now, and each time, I feel stronger and more resilient.”

Karen Russell

“This was my second time at the retreat, and it was so empowering and healing. The firewalk should be terrifying, but it proves that you can face anything you're afraid of. The fire is soft and warm, and the tingling feeling afterward is a reminder of how you did it. It's a dream come true for me.”
