Refresh Reset Retreat™
The Signature Marriage Experience for Couples Who Lead Together
Only Three Couples Will Attend
A Four-Day Invitation
The relationship that carries your calling deserves time, too.
You have built, served, led, solved problems, carried responsibilities, and kept showing up. Somewhere between the calendar, the calling, the business, the ministry, and the people who depend on you, time together can become the item that keeps getting moved.
Your marriage deserves more than the leftover minutes at the end of a demanding day.
Refresh Reset Retreat™ creates four intentional days for married couples who lead together to slow down, reconnect, breathe deeply, and enjoy each other again—without being responsible for every detail.
For Strong Couples Who Have Been Carrying a Lot
This experience was created for couples who are still committed, still building, and still in love—yet recognize that leadership can quietly crowd out the space where connection grows.
You may see yourselves here if:
- You lead together in business, ministry, community work, or a shared mission.
- Your conversations often begin with schedules, responsibilities, decisions, or who needs what next.
- You want meaningful time together without attending a relationship intensive.
- You value faith, marriage, rest, and the company of other couples who understand leadership life.
- You are ready to step away from your usual pace and return home more connected and refreshed.
You do not have to wait for your marriage to be in distress before you give it protected time. Strong couples need room to exhale, too.
What Four Intentional Days Can Make Room For
Refresh Reset Retreat™ is a curated marriage experience, not a packed conference agenda. The rhythm is intentionally spacious so you can participate in meaningful moments and still have room to rest, explore, laugh, talk, or simply enjoy the view.
Nothing about the experience requires you to perform, present, facilitate, or take charge. You may finally let someone else hold the details for a few days.
An Oceanfront Setting Designed for Exhale
You will stay at a premium oceanfront property with spectacular views overlooking Myrtle Beach’s pristine beach.
The setting gives you direct access to the restorative rhythm of the coast: ocean air, expansive views, shoreline walks, and space to step away from the pace you carry at home.
Myrtle Beach International Airport (MYR) is the closest airport. The exact property address will be provided after final payment.
Why Only Three Couples?
Because intimacy changes when the room gets crowded.
This signature experience is intentionally limited to three guest couples. The small setting supports genuine conversation, personal attention, flexibility, and the kind of ease that disappears when an experience grows too large.
You will have space for private couple time and opportunities to connect with other leaders who understand the unusual blend of marriage, responsibility, service, and shared purpose.

The Work Will Still Be There. These Four Days Will Matter.
There will always be another responsibility, another decision, another person who needs something, and another reason to postpone time together.
This invitation gives you a reason to choose your marriage now.
For four intentional days, you can step away from leading everything, settle into a premium oceanfront setting, and return your attention to the relationship that carries the calling with you.
Only three couples will attend.
When those places are reserved, registration will close.
