Starting a Retreat Center: Risks, Realities, and Joys Along the Way
What does it really take to turn a dream of sacred space into reality? In a candid RCC Community Roundtable, three retreat center founders share the honest truth behind building places of rest and healing — from the unexpected challenges of land, finances, and burnout, to the profound joy of watching someone arrive and finally exhale. More than a how-to guide, this conversation is a deeply human exploration of trust, stewardship, and why the way you build matters just as much as what you build. If you're holding this dream — or simply curious about what drives people to do this work — this one's worth your time.
