California Sewing Boss Retreat Oct. 2018 – Hipstitch Academy

California Sewing Boss Retreat Oct. 2018


Update: Sept. 18th, 2018 – 7 Spots Booked – But we have room for one more.


The time has come to connect with other Sewing Bosses in Person! 

Announcing the first Sewing Bosses In-Person Retreat & Mastermind on the California Coast this fall!

Picture a weekend full of:

  • Goal setting with a group of like-minded, hard working women who will keep you accountable.
  • An intimate gathering of experienced & successful sewing business owners/educators who are ready to take their business to the next level.
  • Comfortable accommodations & great food in a gorgeous seaside setting.
  • Time in nature to recharge, refresh and revitalize yourself and your business. 
  • An opportunity to get back that inspiration you had when first started your business. 
  • Knowledge sharing & brainstorming with a group of talented, successful business owners who have gotten their sewing schools/businesses to a certain level and are ready for more!

Over the course of the weekend we’ll delve into what we all struggle with in our businesses and brainstorm & share with each other our tactics for dealing with these struggles. We will also spend quality time with each other Sewing Bosses in a gorgeous setting in Pacific Grove, California.

Think of this event as part mastermind – part weekend-long slumber party with other serious sewing boss ladies who get it! Each retreat participant will  participate in a low-key presentation on what they feel is their area of expertise.

Right now we’re already half full and have spots for 2 more bosses!

Where: Asilomar Conference Center, Pacific Grove California (closest airport San Jose (SJC), CA, San Francisco, CA (SFO) is also a good option).

  • 4 Bedrooms; 1 room with a twin bed, 3 rooms with 2 double beds each
  • 2 Bathrooms
  • Full Kitchen
  • Living Room with Fireplace
  • Breakfast Each Day at the Crocker Dining Hall
