Disconnect
Step outside routine, expectation and constant productivity.
The Experience
✦
From Doing to Being
Boardroom to Barefoot is a retreat experience curated by Executive Hippies™, designed around a simple idea: material success and personal wellbeing do not have to exist in separate worlds.
It is for people who have spent years building, leading, achieving, creating and taking care of everything around them — while recognizing the importance of slowing down, reconnecting with themselves and living with greater intention.
We believe there is another way to experience success. One that leaves room for curiosity, nature, meaningful connection, ritual, wellbeing and the freedom to simply be.
Boardroom to Barefoot brings that philosophy to life.
Reconnect
Through nature, movement, conversation, reflection and meaningful experience.
Return
Integrate what matters and return to your life with greater intention.
✦
Not an Escape. A Return.
You don't have to choose between ambition and inner peace. Between achievement and presence. Between the boardroom and going barefoot.
There is room for both.
