Living With Intention

10/02/2026

This retreat offers a different kind of experience. BBTRS® meets you where your body truly is and supports real release, not surface relief. This is for anyone craving a deeper reset, a deeper connection with themselves, and a nervous system that feels steady again.

The benefits are felt right away. Ease that shows up in your body. Clarity that feels grounded. Space to breathe and move without bracing. And the shifts stay with you because the work happens from the inside out.

If you are ready for a space that lets you arrive as you are and rise from there, this retreat was created with you in mind.

Bali Oct 10th - 17th, 2026

A conversation on addiction, choice, and purpose.

Today’s conversation is rooted in wellness at the level that shapes everything else. The kind of wellness that asks us to look at the patterns we inherited, the environments we grew up in, and the moments that forced us to choose who we wanted to become.

Addiction is not only a personal struggle. It shapes families, communities, and entire belief systems. And when someone decides to interrupt that cycle, the ripple is felt far beyond their own life.

This LIVE is an exploration of those ripples.

We are coming together to talk about what it means to rebuild after struggle. Not through performance or perfection, but through honesty. Through the willingness to look at what hurt, claim what is true now, and build a life that reflects intention rather than old patterns.

In this conversation, we will explore:
• What it takes to break generational cycles and create something different for yourself and your family
• How addiction impacts identity, relationships, and the sense of what is possible
• Where purpose begins once survival is no longer the only focus
• How connection, community, and responsibility support long-term change
• What building a new life looks like when you no longer see yourself through the lens of your past

Resilience When Cancer Enters the Story
How Presence, Connection, and Purpose Shape Resilience
Today’s conversation is rooted in wellness at a very human level.
Presence. Connection. Choice.
When life is interrupted by illness, uncertainty, or fear, the body responds first. The mind follows. Capacity shifts. What once felt clear becomes foggy. What once felt predictable becomes unfamiliar.
Wellness is not only about restoring what was lost. It is about finding steadiness inside experiences no one prepares us for.
Cancer is one of those moments. It reshapes families, relationships, and the way people move through the world. And yet, inside those cracks, you will often find purpose, community, and a resilience that does not arrive from inspiration alone. It grows from honesty, connection, and the decision to keep showing up.
A diagnosis can shift the way people speak to one another. Honesty softens rooms. Awareness brings people closer instead of creating distance.
When lived experience is shared with intention, it opens space for others to walk their own path with less isolation and more clarity. That is why we are coming together to explore how resilience grows inside real lives through truth, connection, and simple practices that help people stay present when everything feels uncertain.
In this LIVE, we will explore:
• How illness reshapes communication, connection, and the way people relate to one another
• Ways resilience is built through intention, support, and the small daily choices
• Finding purpose, faith, and community helps create an anchor when life becomes unpredictable
The Voices Shaping Today’s Dialogue
Dr Rebecca Kochenderfer teaches mindfulness in a way that is simple, steady, and usable. She supported both her son and her sister through their cancer journeys. Her work blends neuroscience with conscious reframing so people can meet hard moments with more clarity and less panic.
Tammy Cohen brings a lens of communication that is rooted in connection. Her cancer remission shifted how she spoke to her sons, her colleagues, and her community. She writes and teaches from that place. Her work is about messaging that truly reaches people and strengthens relationships instead of creating more distance.
Russ Hedge rebuilt his life after remission with intention at the center. His writing and coaching help people recognize the choices in front of them and live with purpose when life feels uncertain. His approach is grounded in faith, presence, and practical resilience.
Together, their stories reflect three different paths shaped by illness, and three different ways resilience continues to grow long after treatment ends.

What Makes a Retreat Transformative

People often ask what makes a retreat transformative.
It’s rarely what they expect.

As Brian, Antonia, and I prepare for our Bali retreat, we keep coming back to what shapes an experience before anyone arrives. The quiet choices that allow the body to soften without effort.

Our retreat begins during the New Moon on October 11, 2026. For me, that phase has always felt like a natural pause. A moment when you do not need answers or a plan. Just room to arrive and listen.

That is what Bali offers. A steadiness that invites you to exhale and let something honest take shape in its own time.

During this live, interactive conversation, we’ll share how we approach retreat design and how those early, unseen choices influence rest, clarity, and reconnection. This is not a presentation. It’s a conversation.

Bring your questions. Share what you’re curious about. Come listen, reflect, and explore what allows a pause to actually stay with you.

Who This Conversation Is For
• Those curious about retreats and want to understand what makes them impactful
• You’re feeling the need to slow down without needing to fix or improve yourself
• You’re drawn to Bali and want to feel into the experience before deciding
• You value thoughtful, intentional spaces over packed schedules

Live Event Details
� Saturday, the 17th
� 12:00 p.m. PST | 2:00 p.m. CST | 3:00 p.m. EST

We’d love to have you join us.

Wow, has time flown! It's been 3 months since the Tomo Tour and still receiving gratitude for the experiences.

I am still integrating the energy of it all. The conversations, laughter, and moments of stillness. The way connection formed when people gave themselves permission to be present.

I keep thinking about the ripples we create without ever seeing where they land.

One of our travelers, Jeanette Alt, shared this reflection:

“It wasn’t just travel. It was an experience that opened my heart. I returned home renewed, inspired, and already looking forward to traveling with April again.”

Her words captured something I have been quietly feeling.

These journeys are not about seeing more places. They are about reconnecting in ways that feel steady and human, especially when life feels full.

Are you feeling a gentle pull toward intentional travel and shared experience?

Our Bali retreat in October 2026 is open. Brian Cochran, Antonia Marie, and I created a space for slowing down, restoring your nervous system, and exploring both the sacred land and your own inner landscape.

💫Self-help can inspire.
💫Information can motivate.

❤️‍🔥But transformation happens when the body finally has room to exhale.

This BBTRS® Experience in Bali is an invitation to step out of constant effort and into a deeper reset.

Through breath, movement, stillness, and connection, the nervous system remembers what safety feels like and from there, everything changes.

When a woman stops forcing and starts flowing, something real awakens.

Fluidity begins the moment she chooses her truth over the roles she outgrew.

This conversation explores the shift that arises when a woman who once “had it all” realizes she is ready to release what no longer aligns.

That release becomes the opening.
That opening invites intuition to lead.

Intuition dissolves rigidity and clears space for a life shaped by passion, presence, and clarity.

This is the recalibration that allows a woman to move with more ease and less effort.

Your Guest Speakers:
Minnku Buttar is a global leader in consciousness guided by an unbounded love for humanity.
She carries a vibration of Joy, Peace, Hope, Possibility, and Oneness into everything she creates.
Through her retreats, talk shows, and publications, she helps people rise from despair and return to self-love, fearlessness, and empowerment.
Her presence reminds us that fluidity is strength in motion.

Aradhana Sayal is an exceptional jewelry designer and the creator of The NEST, a sanctuary for women returning to their breath, their truth, and themselves. The NEST offers a slower pace, a softer rhythm, and a compassionate space to gather the parts of oneself that have been scattered or silenced.

Her work reflects the beauty of fluid leadership and the courage to build a life from inner alignment.

We explore three powerful themes.
*Absolve invites us to release identities, expectations, and old narratives that no longer serve.
*Resolve helps us choose clarity within the body instead of pressure from the world, allowing intuition to have the first word.
*Dissolve softens the structures that restrict flow and returns us to a rhythm that supports energy, creativity, and purpose.

Join us for a grounded and soulful dialogue with two remarkable women who chose truth over titles and passion over performance.

Watch LIVE on LinkedIn, Facebook, and YouTube as we explore a new way of leading, creating, and becoming.

Where in your life are you ready to stop forcing and start flowing?

✨The pause is not where you fall behind. It is where you find yourself again.

Sometimes, the most powerful move forward begins with a pause.

Brian, Antonia, and I share why the pause is not a break from life, but a return to yourself.

In Bali, we create space to slow the breath, quiet the noise, and listen to what your body has been trying to tell you all along.

The breath becomes the bridge.
Between who you have been and who you are becoming.
Between effort and ease.
Between survival and clarity.

If you have been craving space to reset, recalibrate, and rise from the inside out, this is an invitation to explore what is possible when you stop pushing and start listening.

✨Bali is not an escape. It is a remembering.

There is a moment in every professional’s journey when the strength they present to the world no longer matches the weight they hold inside.

They keep moving, deciding, leading, and showing up, yet something in the background begins to feel heavier than before.

A quiet pressure.
An emotional residue.
An old story resurfaces through the body even when the mind insists everything is fine.

What if that invisible weight is not a flaw but a signal.
What if the heaviness is the body asking for attention.
What if clarity begins not by pushing harder but by releasing what has been carried for far too long.

This LIVE conversation explores the emotional, energetic, and subconscious layers that silently shape the way we lead, communicate, work, and relate to others.

You will learn:
• Unprocessed experiences often surface as overthinking
• How the pressure to perform creates a disconnect
• Ways the nervous system signals capacity long before the mind notices
• Recognizing these signals helps you respond with clarity and steadiness

Your Guest Speakers:

Victoria Snodgrass
A remarkable Su***de and Trauma Alchemist Coach, relationship guide, and best-selling author whose journey from trauma to triumph reveals the extraordinary resilience of the human spirit.
