Hey everyone, Dr Finlays and Fife's assistant here and I just wanted to let you know that we are headed back to Hillsborough Oregon this fall for an art of desire retreats and

just wanted to share a little bit of my personal experience. Back in 2020 I had been feeling a little bit down in my life for a couple of years and not quite sure what to do about it, but I got myself to the Art of Desire workshop and it was transformational for me. It was pivotal. It kind of changed everything. And you know, there were maybe 60 or 70 people there. I never raised my hand, never asked a question, but I got so much from attending in person.

It felt like Jennifer was talking directly to me, and it's where everything started to change for me.

Yeah, well, it's interesting because I've had people that I've worked

with in individual coaching or that have taken the online courses and they have said to me that going

to a retreat was the biggest impact for them to just sit there to get away from their

family, work obligations, and be able to focus and then be in this kind of organic conversation that happens in these courses and these retreats.

I always bring the same backbone to every one of the Art of Desire events,

but it's very much alive and I'm in response to the group what questions

they have, what concerns they have. And I just absolutely love it. I see the

earnestness, the honesty. Not only is it this a chance to go through the content,

you know, be able to do it in a focused way,

be able to do it or you can ask questions

and get my input.

But you also get to interact with like-minded people.

We also have exercise classes and dance

and a movie night and great food and a beautiful setting. It looks like Tuscany in the United States

it's just really a remarkable setting so it's just there to nourish your soul and

help you find a deeper relationship to yourself, to your own sense of desire

and purpose in life as well as to your sexuality.

I think it's fair to say that I've completed more art of desire retreats and workshops than anyone.

I'm a proud 10-time graduate, but I have to say that every time is just that soul rejuvenating experience that you're talking about.
