Operations Consultant
For retreat leaders and sound healers
I help retreat leaders, sound healers and sound bath facilitators plan, price and run their offerings so every retreat and every session leaves them in profit, not exhausted. I was COO of a global sound healing academy and co-founded a Los Angeles sound bath company.
Retreat and sound healing operations I help fix
Retreat budgets, pricing and deposit schedules
Venue, vendor and travel logistics
Registration, payment plans and cancellation terms
Sound bath scheduling, ticketing and capacity
Facilitator, assistant and staff roles and pay
Pre-retreat communication and post-retreat follow-up
Trainings, courses and memberships as steady revenue
How to plan a profitable retreat
Build the full budget before you set a price: venue, food, travel, staff, insurance, marketing and your own pay. Set the number of guests you need to break even, take non-refundable deposits, and set a final payment date well before you owe the venue.
Why do retreats lose money?
Usually three reasons: the price was set before the full budget, the retreat ran below its break-even number of guests, and the leader's own time and pay were never counted. A clear budget and deposit schedule fix most of it before the first guest books.
Questions from retreat leaders and sound healers
How should I price a retreat?
Add up every cost, including your own pay and a buffer, then divide by a realistic number of guests, not a full house. Many leaders price so the retreat breaks even at about two-thirds full.
How do sound healers build steady income?
Pair one-off sound baths with offerings people return to: series, memberships, private sessions, trainings and corporate events. Steady income comes from repeat clients, not from filling every event.
Do you work with sound bath facilitators and event hosts?
Yes. I co-founded a sound bath company that ran weekly events, and I work with facilitators, retreat hosts and wellness event producers.
