Real Prosperity for Women: Reclaim Your Inner Wealth

Sunday, Apr 6 - Fri, Apr 11, 2025

Kona, Hawai'i


Join Imaginal Venture's CEO Dorothy Spence and Spiritual Guide Stephanie Chee Barea for an intimate 5-night retreat in Kona, Hawaii—designed specifically for professional women seeking meaningful connection, personal renewal, and a purposeful pause.


This is a strategic reset for women who are ready to:

  • Connect with like-minded women seeking a deeper understanding of success and wealth
  • Rediscover joy and personal passion beyond professional achievements
  • Build sustainable habits for spiritual and mental wellness
  • Completely unplug and truly unwind in a supportive, transformative environment

Your Sanctuary of Renewal

Set against Kona's breathtaking coastline, this luxury experience is limited to 8 participants, ensuring personalized attention and genuine connections. Here, you'll experience:

  • Daily yoga and breathwork sessions designed to restore physical and emotional resilience
  • Guided meditation practices for stress reduction and clarity
  • Interactive workshops focused on navigating professional and personal evolution
  • Structured networking and collective wisdom sharing with inspiring women
  • Joyful island adventures that reignite wonder, awe and beauty

What You'll Gain:

  • A renewed sense of purpose and possibility
  • Deep connections with a supportive network of professional women
  • Techniques for integrating spiritual wellness into your leadership approach
  • Restored energy and fresh perspectives to propel your next chapter

We recognize that true transformation requires radical permission—to be held, to be nourished, to experience abundance without compromise. Real Prosperity is a rare opportunity to slow down, observe and reconnect with the rhythms and mysteries that lie beyond the confines of our everyday lives and habit patterns. Return home after this reset with a clear vision and renewed spirit.

Organizers

Dorothy & Steph have been studying and practicing in the same wisdom tradition together since 2010, sharing a common love for biological systems, neuroscience, yoga and philosophy. Ocean sisters, adventure pals, and joyful seekers on the path of fire and light, they love to share in the wonder and beauty of the natural world. 


Dorothy Spence

Dorothy is a serial entrepreneur, business advisor, yogi, author, speaker, founder and CEO of Imaginal Ventures in Halifax, NS, Canada. Having started her career with an engineering degree and an MBA, she's known as an analytical Einstein (just with much better hair!) and a keen problem solver. It’s not often she’s seen without her flip chart and colourful array of marker pens, holding brainstorming sessions and ensuring her team are continuously pushing forwards. Whether it’s through new programs, the platform or planning the next TGIF (pandemic dependent), Dorothy is always 5 steps ahead. Yet, through her extensive study and practice of yoga she has also found a deep-rooted interest in human nature and consciousness, resulting in the development of her Conscious Business Operating System (CBOS) and Human Dynamics Asset System (HDAS). She’s an energy alchemist who keeps us aligned and on track, balancing her drive for success with the support and nourishment that comes from spending time with nature, especially when there are dolphins involved!

Reviews

I met wonderful people. The sessions were incredibly thoughtful and I appreciated learning new things. The food was amazing and Chelsea was very kind. The support and camaraderie was impressive. The sleeping situation was not what I expected. I assumed from the description each person would have a med room with a private bathroom. I loved being in nature and the barn was perfect.

What an incredible retreat experience with Steph and Amie in Baja this past week! They both facilitated a very wonderful retreat for female leaders. It was a perfect mix of yoga, workshops, discussions, free time, and adventure activities. They were welcoming, friendly, and fun - making the whole experience wonderful. The location was incredible, the retreat center was top-notch on every level. The food was amazing, the rooms were spacious, the massages were incredible, the pool was lovely..and all of this was just steps away from the ocean with whale sightings every day! I highly recommend doing a retreat with Steph and Amie!
