Deepening Relationships: Listening with Open Hearts
With Vicky Curtiss and Dr. Vince Racioppo
August 6 - 8, 2027
Many of us long for relationships that are deep, authentic, and meaningful. We seek connections that offer a sense of belonging, purpose, and shared humanity.
This retreat will offer practical tools to help you strengthen trust and draw forth the inner wisdom in others, while also deepening your own. Whether you are a family member, staff colleague, friend, or spiritual guide, you will become better equipped to create fulfilling connections. During this retreat, you will learn how to be fully present, attentive, and empathetic in your interactions; reframe conversations to open new possibilities; elicit meaningful insights through thoughtful questions; navigate and reduce defensiveness in difficult moments; and discover shared values and common ground that unite people.
