travel guide

location

Granada Hills, CA 91344
(Exact address provided upon registration.)

The retreat center is newly constructed and deeply intentional. Before the walls went up, I wrote intentions directly on the foundation—anchoring the space in presence, peace, and possibility. (See here.) The warm, welcoming environment invites you to exhale, let go of the busyness of life, and come home to yourself.

airports

The closest airports are the Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR) and the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). These are anywhere from 15-30 miles from my office, and can range anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour and 15 minutes of travel time, depending on traffic. 

If you’re looking for the travel ease of a smaller airport, BUR is best!
