8th Annual InDependent Wellness Summit
Rediscover YOU in 2024.
A virtual anytime, anywhere retreat for military spouses — past, present, and future.
Save the dates. March 4-8th.
Every transition brings new opportunities to rediscover what makes you…YOU.
If there is any one constant in military life, it’s change.
Cultivate gratitude and joy through any season of change.
- In a new city.
- During deployment or reintegration.
- When you’re starting a new career transition or entering a season of unemployment.
- After retirement.
- As a newlywed or new parent
- When you drop your kids off at kindergarten for the first time…
- And when you help them move into their dorm room.
Rediscover wellness during whatever season of military life you’re in today.
A military spouse wellness retreat thoughtfully curated & delivered straight to you.
Take the space, time, and energy you need to participate as you please and on your terms.
