Bali: Your Catalyst for Change

Awaken to Your True Self

I provide the experience of a lifetime

YOU become the catalyst for the change you’ve been wanting.

March 16 – 23, 2026

You’re Exhausted. Burnt Out. Ready for Real Change.

You’ve done the quick fixes. The spa days, the short-lived resets. They felt good for a moment, but nothing stuck. Because what you need isn’t another escape.

You need a true transformation. One that lasts.

This is exactly why I created this retreat—an immersive, high-touch experience designed to recalibrate your life at the deepest level. A retreat where you don’t just relax—you realign, rediscover, and walk away with the clarity and tools to make lasting changes.

This retreat is for you if…

  • You’re burnt out and crave something deeper than surface-level self-care.

  • You’re done with quick fixes and want real transformation.

  • You need space to think, feel, and truly reset—not a jam-packed schedule.

  • You want deep healing, personalized support, and post-retreat integration so your shifts last.

This is not for you if you’re looking for just another wellness getaway. This is for those ready to step into real change.

What’s amazing is that in addition to this incredible, profoundly deep retreat experience in Bali, Kristen continues to coach participants for one year – reinforcing the goals and intentions we set while on retreat. For me, this retreat exceeded the very high expectations I had going in. Invest in this magical experience!

A Once-in-a-Lifetime Experience in Bali

March 19, 2026 | COMO Shambhala Estate

This 8-day retreat is unlike anything else in the world.

You will experience Nyepi—Bali’s sacred Day of Silence—where the entire island comes to a standstill. No planes. No cars. No distractions. Just you, in complete stillness, creating space for clarity and renewal.

I chose this time because I want you to experience what happens when the noise stops—when you finally get to hear your own voice again. When you let the stillness work its magic and clarity begins to emerge.

This is more than a retreat. It’s a reset for your entire being.

A rare fusion of Eastern wisdom, Ayurvedic healing, and transformative coaching, all within a breathtaking private estate.

Kristen structured this retreat in such a way as to put everyone into the right frame of mind to see the truth of themselves.

Most of us are just following the ruts in the road that we’ve carved out over time, plodding along and overwhelmed by responding to all the incoming (stressors, to-dos, notifications) that we can’t see any alternative. The retreat first focused on clearing away the noise, understanding that without all those pop-ups and distractions we’ll actually be able to see that there are multiple paths.

Then she worked with us to start to understand what path we actually want to take and why – laying trail-markers of what’s really important to us rather than focusing on the end goal. And also, importantly, tried to give us tools so we can get back to this moment of clarity when we need it.

With the year of coaching attached, it prevented us from putting up blockers of “how” in the moment. She let us get used to this idea without any pressure of plotting a course but with the reassurance that we would get there.

My sister and I attended the Bali retreat with Kristen in March 2024. I highly and enthusiastically recommend this once-in-a-lifetime retreat to anyone looking to experience daily awe and wonder with holistic wellness on a physical, spiritual, and experiential level.

The way Kristen has designed this workshop allows for group connection, as well as time for individual activities, quiet, and reflection. You’ll experience Balinese culture with curated food and experiences that showcase the magical and unique place that can only be found in Bali.

The resort is twenty acres of lush nature with so much to explore. Having this time with my sister for a week will be something we both cherish for a lifetime.

What’s amazing is that in addition to this incredible, profoundly deep experience in Bali, Kristen continues to coach participants for one year – reinforcing the goals and intentions we set while on retreat. For me, this retreat exceeded the very high expectations I had going in. Invest in this magical experience!

Kristen’s hard work and consistent clarity to make all of this happen for me and this group was really magical. Kristen is so talented. She has such a strong and clear intuition and at just the right moments. She helped me quiet the monkey mind. She reminded me that it isn’t all about the tools, sometimes with too many tools we can complicate things and try to do everything and then realize one day we aren’t doing what really matters most. Simple acts like incorporating daily rituals and the importance of keeping things simple opens space for us to focus and allows for easier expansion.

She really is the bomb. She is generous, her heart is so bright, big, and strong. She has this magical mix to really hold profoundly safe space where people get to choose how to show up and kind of take their own terms with bringing in powerful insights and love and having flow with elegance and grace. The spiritual aspects of the week we’re really mind-blowing. Thank you Kristen, for seeing me and knowing what I needed in just the right moments! Our work together has been game changing. I am so honored to work with you and know you and to be on this humbling path together.

This retreat was profound and life-changing. I am exciting to keep working with Kristen and carry this work forward. Her program is really elegantly designed, it is remarkable to have the coaching come after the experience. I also found the sound healing to be remarkably nurturing and quieting and healing.

Wow. Where to start? There are so many adjectives that come to mind to help try and relay the incredible journey upon which we just embarked. I will try and explain sticking with these three: peaceful, surprising, and fruitful.

  1. Peaceful: I went originally to escape the noise of everyday life and boy was it just that. From the literal soothing sounds of the jungle and its inhabitants rising with the sun, to the mental escape from the loud “noise” of our mundane day-to-day, the retreat was a relaxing reset button aligning to a healthier pace of life. Nyepi, whilst just one day of silence, taught me that there can be a long-lasting power in NOT doing something vs. our ingrained behavior to do many things at once.

  2. Surprising: As I mentioned, I honestly just needed a break, but what I experienced was far more profound. There really is something magical about Bali and the path that Kristen has stated for me that were both unexpected. I’ve been to a lot of places in the world, but never to Bali. Bali has a unique energy driven by the ultra-kind people, their spiritual traditions and a tempered pace of life all amidst a truly beautiful landscape/backdrop. As far as my path, I’m a logic guy who thought he had the 1’s and 0’s figured out. Kristen created an environment that allowed me to reflect inward and understand how life is far from binary.

  3. Fruitful: I went into the retreat with a temporary escape in mind but what I came away with was a lifelong recipe for a healthier mind and body. Kristen was able to formulate a path specifically tailored for me that was spot on. She has a truly unique ability to listen, process and guide, all with patience and a gentle touch. Ultimately, the word retreat does not truly convey what this was for me. Yes, I did “escape” to a beautiful and exotic place far from home, but while there and with Kristen’s help, I now have the space and place to find peace, strength and happiness in my everyday life.

THANK YOU KRISTEN!

The retreat location is on the beautiful, spiritual island of Bali. As a first-time visitor, Kristen’s thorough communications regarding weather, clothing, currency, language, and native culture were invaluable to me. She made it easy and comfortable for me (as a single female traveler) to make a long trip to a foreign country on my own.

The retreat is centered around caring for your body, mind, and soul. Your day will start as you see fit – a walk, swim, meditation and includes fresh fruit and juice along with your made-to-order breakfast. Soak up the beauty of the flowers blooming everywhere, listen to the breeze rustle the leaves and the river flowing beneath the property, close your eyes and just breathe. The day belongs to you.

Your activities can be solo or with others in the group. I made lifelong friendships while there. Somehow, as strangers, we immediately connected during our welcome dinner and stayed in touch afterwards. Kristen’s welcoming attitude and gentle guidance allows each participant to feel comfortable and seen. Our evening dinners as a group provided a safe community in which to share ideas, new perspectives, experiences and gratitude. Afterwards, take a moonlit stroll through the property, prepare for bed and if you’d like, spend your last hour of the day relaxing with Kristen’s masterful sound therapy. You’ll float right out of the class and into your villa for a truly restorative night’s sleep.

The best difference that the Heal Anywhere retreat brought to my life is the quiet calmness in my core. Now, it is always there but especially when I need a few minutes to stop, breathe and simply listen to it. Returning home, I found the “real world” was as expected but most importantly, I am truly different and will manage life’s challenges in a way that works for me. In turn, I feel empowered, centered, and grateful.

My Retreat experience in Bali with Kristen Firpo was well… unexpectedly – extraordinary and without question the most unique and remarkable experience in my adult life as a 61-year-old woman.

My personality is a bit stubborn, set in my ways, creature of habit, etc. and Kristen’s gift of guiding me through my personal weeds, if you will, was brilliant and mindful. In addition, her talents as a Sound Healer were/and are indeed healing! Sounds not poetic enough to say this, but I left Kristen’s Retreat a different woman. I most certainly gained an unforgettably beautiful experience. I never expected that I would allow myself the opportunity to love and accept myself, to let go of nonsense, to breathe in life in a positive manner as I’m learning and practicing to do so now thanks to Kristen. Her soft yet powerful voice equal a symphony!

Bali is such a special place in so many ways that words are not artistic enough to describe it. Such a very special and magical paradise from the landscape to the in betweens to the kindness, charisma, and charm of the people.

I can say that I left with developing new friendships and will most certainly be back! Thank You Ms. Kristen for introducing me to the beautiful space within myself and the beautiful world of Bali!
