I had an absolutely rejuvenating and empowering retreat away. It was so nice to be surrounded by ‘my people’ and feel seen and understood in a way I don’t get on a day to day basis in this line of work. Please host more of these. I would love to see more time to connect, share insight and best practices from each other and time to craft - even simple things to do with out hands like water coloring, so we can sit around and chat. The painting of the wine bottles is a perfect example as the conversations around the table were soooooo meaningful. I am left with what i hope to be lifelong relationships and look forward to growing with this group. Thank you for putting in the hard work to make this happen for us creatives who just need a place to be!

The Sun + Sea Summit no.3 exceeded every expectation I quietly carried through the door. I came knowing I'd be in a room with like-minded creative studio owners. What I didn't anticipate was how deeply the whole experience would land. The hospitality was exceptional, the food was local and abundant, and the swag was playful and colorful in the way that only people who truly understand creative culture can pull off. Hands-on making sessions from small business owners who clearly love their craft. Business, tech and soul intel that was actually useful. But it was the in-between moments that made it. Belly laughter. Processing with people who just get it. The kind of conversation that sneaks up on you and stays. I left renewed, uplifted and genuinely excited about what's ahead. Already counting down to next year.

Amazing! I would have loved to have small, topic-based breakouts to ask each other questions or talk about studio issues/problems/wins. Thank you so much for organizing!

Great experience. Looking forward to more events like this!

There was an incredible amount of thought and detail that went into this entire experience. From supporting and showcasing local businesses, facilitating engaging conversations, bringing in speakers, beach yoga, themed dinners, art experiences, a large variety of beverages and food, spacious and comfortable accommodations, and never ending art supplies / materials to take home. All of the hosts and attendees were all willing to share their background and experiences at their business. Rachel even went above and beyond during some down time to show some first timers around town when she probably could have used that little down time to do something for herself. Overall this was a really special experience and I highly recommend this Summit for anyone in the field.
