I am a four season peak bagger in New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine. I am exploring the Adirondacks of New York as well as Colorado 14'ers. My longest backpacking trip was 18 days on the John Muir Trail with a grand finale hiking Mt. Whitney! I am a Certified Health Coach and yoga instructor leading people to uplevel their health and reinvent themself. I am the most content outside hiking with my friends. I enjoy staying active through yoga, biking, x-country skiing and cooking seasonal plant based food.

I had an amazing time on this retreat led by Nancy and Cynthia! A beautiful setting, delicious meals, fireside conversation at night, fun activities including yoga, dancing, Thai partner massage, meditation and hiking. I learned more about Ayurveda and living a healthy life. This was a wonderful group of women coming together to connect and enjoy time away. I can’t wait to be part of this again! Thank you!

The Self-Care retreat was a wonderful getaway. Setu is a beautiful setting, and a lovely home away from home run by a devoted couple. Nancy and Cynthia lead a well-balanced retreat that included meditation, yoga, a choice of hikes, shared meals, optional massages, and 'me time.' Everything was considered optional, so each person could choose their own pace. It was nice to meet a great group of women and have a chance to chat and get to know one another, but also have time to settle in a quiet corner to read or relax. This was my second trip lead by Nancy, and it was as great as the first.
