November 7 - 9, 2025
Saugatuck, Michigan
Pause 2025
"Where am I and where am I heading next? What will this next season ask of me? What changes do I need to make?"
This carefully crafted weekend experience allows you to answer the important, but not necessarily urgent, questions of life.
You’ll receive:
Pause is limited to a select group of seven women just like you.
- Ticket to "Ascend: Expand Your Influence & Opportunities as a Professional Woman" on Friday, November 7 in Kankakee, Illinois (then we will drive up to Saugatuck for the weekend— a two hour drive)
- Two nights at a renovated historic home in Saugatuck
- Your own bedroom
- All meals & drinks Friday night through Sunday morning
- One-hour one on one coaching session with Amy to be scheduled for before or after the event
- Four group coaching sessions with other attendees at the event
Participants will dig into questions like:
- Am I using my unique gifts to serve the world?
- What am I resisting? What is the root of the resistance?
- What is draining me most? To what or to whom am I giving too much?
- How are my support systems? Where do I need more help or less?
- What am I supposed to create next? What will that require?

Past Pause
Take a look at some of the fun we had in years past!
Had we not said yes to this weekend retreat, we most certainly would have filled our time with errands, cooking for our families, answering our emails, and anything else that was loud enough to move us to action. But because we made a choice for ourselves, to leave the busyness of our regular routine, we experienced intentional rest in a powerful way. We were quiet. We paused, and in pausing we came alive.
Our time together drew all of us to new realizations. We asked and answered hard questions. We contemplated our life choices—the big stuff like marriage, careers, and health. It was a safe space to be vulnerable. This vulnerability revealed our value. Understanding our value is the greatest realization we could ever know. We paused, and in pausing we internalized our worth.
