The Layers of a Retreat with Liesel Albrecht
What makes a retreat truly transformational?
In this episode of How to Run Profitable Retreats, I sit down with Liesel Albrecht, founder of The Retreat Specialist and creator of the Nine-Layered Retreat Design Framework. With more than 34 years of experience leading retreats, Liesel shares what it takes to create meaningful experiences while building a retreat business that is both impactful and sustainable.
We discuss why so many retreat leaders struggle to treat their retreats like a real business, the importance of designing with intention, and how your own story and expertise become the foundation for unforgettable retreats.
In this episode, you'll learn:
▪️ Why retreats should be built like a business, not just an event
▪️ The key elements of transformational retreat design
▪️ How to create a retreat business that supports your lifestyle
▪️ Why community is essential to filling your retreats
