You're invited to join us for our...

Connection + Elevation Women's Retreat

September 15-18, 2022

Come to the mountains with us in the Fall - one of the best seasons in the Colorado Rockies - for a time of connection with women like you - that crave friendship with other women leaders - that understand what it’s like, that desire to step further into their mission and vision, that want to be known, and seen and elevated, just as they elevate those around them.

This retreat will help you tap into your inner wisdom, connect with your future self, and create a plan for the next phase of your business and career growth.

You'll also have a great time connecting, laughing and just being with a great group of women!

The retreat includes 4 days, 3 nights in a luxury home in the Colorado mountains. Also included are gourmet catered meals, outdoor activities, and an opportunity to connect with fellow women business and community leaders.

I loved every segment that was introduced and I came away inspired, renewed and with practical plans of what to do next. "

Praise for Melissa

“I participated in Melissa’s marketing bootcamp this summer and found it to be incredibly insightful and a productive use of my time. It was a huge value to have access to an expert in her field, and to share ideas and business pains with other entrepreneurs. She delivered content in easily digestible and engaging formats, always stayed on time/task, and curated great community. We also received a free coaching day – which, by the end, proved to be one of the most helpful and impactful days I’ve had all year. She listens to your struggles, pain points, and dreams, and can filter out the excuses and help you see what is really going on an recommend a strong path forward. She’s authentic, smart, kind, patient, and just an overall rockstar both personally and professionally. I would highly recommend Melissa, her program, and this invaluable investment in your business.”

I'm so excited that we met, because I don't really know how I would do the last... I don't even know how I would do it without you. You've been a permanent stable in my mindset shift and how I think through things.

Sydney M

“...The training, the coaching has been invaluable. It's not even necessarily training, it literally is coaching. It's this...you already have these gifts and these talents inside of you, now let's tap into them. Let's pull them out and let's allow them to serve their purpose in your life, to attain the life that is destined and planned for you. So that is probably the biggest mindset shift that I've had and why I would recommend a coach to anybody. I mean, I would say, if you're building a business, you need somebody that is objective enough and not necessarily, what do you call it? In the soup. In the soup with you, but kind of just saying, you might need some oregano in there. You need that objectivity to help guide the decisions that you're making so that you're not backpedaling and taking two steps back to move one step forward constantly.

“I’ve been working with Melissa for a year and have enjoyed every moment. Besides being a great person, she is strategic and creative. I am seeing a great return on my investment in social, online and email marketing, and could not have pulled it off without her! Thanks, Melissa!”

Julie Ulstrup

Elevating women is Julie’s life work.

As Colorado and the Rocky Mountain region’s premier Business Branding, Headshot, Portrait and Boudoir Photographer she elevates women to see the best version of themselves. Since nearly 90 % of the information our brain processes is visual, a portrait is the best way to create a vision for who you desire to become.

Are you looking for images to stand out for your business, on your social media profiles and website or to celebrate the incredible woman you are? Julie is the professional to make it happen. She has been honing her craft for more than 40 years, is working towards International Portrait Master Accreditation and has an innate ability to create an environment where her clients can relax and be their authentic self.

Her Northern Colorado studio location includes professional indoor as well as outdoor spaces. Locations in Southern California and soon in Spain utilize indoor studio space as well as cityscape location options.

Julie believes that empowered women change the world and that by seeing yourself in a portrait that is powerful, beautiful, incredible, we become that best version of who we see. Learn more by watching her recent TEDx talk here.

Praise for Julie

“When you get your photo taken by Julie, you aren’t just getting your photo taken. Julie takes time to capture your essence, your true intention. She takes time and care to truly understand what it is your wanting to capture. She is seriously brilliant at what she does and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her for anything personally or professionally as I’ve utilized her services for both. Your absolute best option in Northern Colorado!!!! 💕🙏”

Kate S

“She made me feel SO comfortable, loved and confident. The pictures are spectacular! I honestly won’t go to another photographer. The quality of her work is exceptional, but more importantly the experience built me up. Never had that from a photographer before!”

Deanna K

“My expectations were high because she has a great reputation but even my high expectations were blown out of the atmosphere. Thanks for the experience Julie!”
