Brooke and Casey unpack their Elevate Your Influence retreat in Hot Springs: a luxe, rockstar-themed mansion, mindset + strategy sessions, yoga + meditation, one-to-one coaching, brand photography, and a chef-prepared sunset dinner. They highlight why small, intimate circles accelerate growth, how cross-industry women (agents, lenders, fitness, etc.) found common ground, and why vulnerability + collaboration = momentum. The day flowed through stations for planning, journaling, content implementation, and lifestyle shoots, then wrapped with sisterhood vibes (and karaoke). Big themes: say yes before you feel "ready," curate spaces that spark connection, and remember: better together beats going solo.
