Two days of celebrating recharge, relaxation, and reset

October 28-29, 2024

Vero Beach, Florida

Rest Fest was born out of a deep desire to hop off the Highway of Success and walk the dirt path instead.

A fast exit off the dizzying, exhausting pedal-to-the-metal lifestyle that could only end in burnout.

A thoughtful decision to walk around the brick wall this time instead of trying to throw yourself through it.

A conscious choice to wander without specific direction only to find the answers were always just outside of our busy schedules.

The Intuitive Audit

Crush your goals, not your soul

Most of us set life and work goals based on what others think we “should” do and how we’re “supposed” to want. What if we shifted this process to focusing on what FEELS right for you—by tapping into your intuition?

My husband, Dan Russell, and I didn’t design The Intuitive Audit to teach you how to hit big goals, make a certain amount of money, or even manifest the love of your life.

We designed this experience to help you become the kind of person who can hit those big goals you’ve set for yourself.

This is our masterclass in consciously planning your life from the top to the bottom. We’re holding nothing back. Are you ready to start living the life you were meant to be living all along? 

You just have to step through the door of possibility!

Limitless: Wonder

GROWTH IN CONSCIOUS COLLABORATION

Austin, TX

When you landed on this planet, you were given limitless potential. Anything you wanted to do and whoever you wanted to be was all possible. Until the world told you there were limits.

Every single one of us was born with innate creativity, yet it was slowly sucked out of us. We once painted, danced, sang, and made up stories. We used our imaginations and created whole worlds with our minds. Yet as we aged, we found ourselves trying to fit in and follow the rules.

Some tried to get it back by becoming entrepreneurs in order to allow our imaginations to run wild, yet between financial obligations and marketing algorithms, we were forced into following more rules. But there was something missing. A spark. A wildness. A certain kind of magic.

The Brilliant Rebellion reminds us that we can have a conscious community and step into ourselves alongside others doing the same. It’s a place where others follow their curiosity and gifts.

Because community needs in-real-life connection, we created LIMITLESS. The Brilliant Rebellion’s in-person 2-day immersive experience. We will host this event multiple times a year as a place for deeper growth and connection with our community.

Mark your calendar: April 27-30, 2025 in Austin, TX

This event will be focused on the theme of WONDER.
