“Soul Bloom weekend was exactly what I needed. Today, I feel the difference in me. I love myself more, I trust myself and my intuition more, I am more confident.
Jeff and Ruby developed activities centered around what I chose to work on. Body movement, breathwork, nature, nourishment, conversations, massage, love and respect all mixed in a unique, magical way that resulted in my transformation.
The weekend didn’t end on Sunday. I carry those seeds planted in me, and they have already sprouted and continue to grow day by day. ❤️”
