The Power of Stepping Back: Lessons Learned from Our Barcelona Retreat

Last week I hosted an inspiring 2-day coaching retreat in Barcelona with my Round Table Mastermind Group.

The retreat was a reminder of how important it is to take a step back from the daily demands of running a business. Too often, we get so caught up in the hustle of working in the business that we neglect the bigger picture—working on it.

This retreat offered exactly that opportunity.

Like with any other event we've hosted in the past, it's always incredible to witness the transformation that happens when driven, like-minded entrepreneurs come together in a space designed for deep reflection and growth.

We took the time to dig into our goals, challenge current strategies, and brainstorm innovative ideas to elevate everyone's businesses to the next level. The energy in the room was contagious, and I couldn’t have been more proud of the focus and ambition each participant brought to the table.

Together, we mapped out clear, actionable plans to carry everyone into the next quarter with momentum and clarity.

I also gifted everyone a copy of Donald Miller's Coach Builder, which is an absolute must-read for any coach or consultant wanting to build a profitable business!

Hosting this retreat reminded me just how essential it is to create intentional time for big-picture thinking. Whether it’s through a live event, a strategy day, or just an hour carved out in your weekly routine, stepping away from the day-to-day operations can reignite your passion and lead to powerful breakthroughs in your business.

As we head into the final quarter of the year, I encourage you to prioritize this kind of space for yourself. You never know what game-changing ideas might emerge when you allow yourself the freedom to focus on what really matters! :-)

This is exactly the type of stuff we'll be working on at the Long Haul Leader Summit, which is taking place just over a month from now. There are just a handful or so of tickets left.

If you want to be there with us for a transformational weekend, send me a DM with "SUMMIT" and I'll get you a special discount link!
