Laguna Beach wasn't chosen simply for its beauty—it was chosen with intention.
​
It offers a unique blend of natural beauty, creativity, and peaceful energy that perfectly complements your transformational journey. The rhythmic sound of the ocean, the grounding energy of the coastline, and the town's vibrant artistic spirit create an environment that naturally encourages deep inner work, reflection, inspiration, and renewal.
​

Here, you'll find space to step away from the noise of everyday life while remaining immersed in an environment that nourishes your creativity, awakens your spirit, and supports the inner work you'll be doing throughout the retreat.
​
This isn't about escaping your life—it's about creating the space to rediscover yourself.
​
Our retreat is deeply anchored by the ocean and beach. Because a lrge portion of our daily practices and exercises take place on the beach, the sandy terrain may pose challenges for those with limited mobility.

Meet Your Hosts:
Susan Boster
For years, I've had the privilege of guiding hundreds of heart-centered individuals through life's transitions, as a Channel, Medium, Shamanic Energy practitioner and Akashic Records guide, helping them reconnect with their higher selves, gain clarity, and create lives aligned with their soul's purpose.
​
With more than 25 years of leadership experience, combined with years of spiritual practice and intuitive development, I bring together practical wisdom and Spirit-guided insight to create a grounded, transformative experience.
​
I know firsthand that life's greatest challenges can become our greatest opportunities for growth. That's why I'm passionate about creating a safe, supportive space where you'll feel seen, encouraged, and empowered to release what no longer serves you, trust your inner wisdom, and confidently step into your next chapter.
​
This retreat is an extension of that commitment. My intention is for you to leave feeling deeply connected to yourself and Spirit, renewed with clarity, and empowered to create a life that feels purposeful, authentic, and joy-filled.
Shaun Mathieu - Smith
If you're seeking greater clarity, spiritual renewal, or a deeper connection with the supernatural realm, I'm honored to walk beside you on that journey.
I was born into a family of psychic mediums. I've devoted my life to developing my metaphysical gifts and helping others discover the wisdom, rejuvenation, and guidance available through the Divine.
Over the years, I've had the privilege of working with clients around the world through tarot and oracle readings, mediumship, energy work, and spiritual mentorship.
My approach combines intuitive insight with grounded guidance. I create a safe and supportive space where you can attain a deeper understanding of oneself, reconnect with loved ones in Spirit, release stagnant energy, and move forward with greater confidence, peace, and purpose.
As a lifelong student and teacher of hermetic traditions, I continue to deepen my knowledge of spiritualism, angelic and deific connection, intuitive development, and sacred practices so I can better serve those who feel called to this work.
At the heart of everything I do is a simple philosophy that I live by: to be of love and service. My greatest passion is helping you trust your intuition, embrace your spiritual gifts, and discover the insight, healing, and fulfillment that come from living in alignment with your authentic self.
Frequently Asked Questions
What if I cannot afford this? We make this retreat easily accessible with payment plans. Choose from 4, 6 or 10 payments. All registrations must be paid in full 60 days prior to the retreat start date.
How can I take time for this? We understand. We all have responsibilities, commitments, and people who rely on us. But we've learned that when we continually put ourselves last, we eventually become disconnected from the very wisdom, joy, and energy we're seeking. This retreat is an invitation to invest in yourself. To step away from the noise, reconnect with your higher self, and gain the clarity and direction that can positively impact every area of your life. The real question is: Can you afford not to take the time for yourself?
I need a roommate – how do I arrange that? The rooms at Hotel Joaquin are one bed (king or queen), creating a private processing oasis, where the only energy you are experiencing is your own.
Can I bring my partner? To support the deepest level of personal reflection, growth, and transformation, this retreat is designed as a solo experience and is hosted at an adults-only property. While we understand the desire to share meaningful experiences with a spouse or partner, we encourage participants to attend on their own. Creating a sacred space and container away from familiar roles, responsibilities, and relationships often allows for deeper self-discovery, greater clarity, and a more profound connection with the retreat process and desired outcomes. If your partner is also attending the retreat, we welcome them.
Will I have access to the Internet? Yes.
Do I have to participate in everything? This retreat has been intentionally curated as a cohesive experience designed to support meaningful transformation. While attendance at all activities is encouraged to maximize your results, you are always invited to honor your personal needs and well-being throughout the retreat. My recommendation is simple: trust the process, stay open, and allow yourself to fully immerse in the experience. The more you invest in your journey, the more you'll receive from it.
Where do I fly into? John Wayne Airport, also known as Santa Ana Airport (SNA)
Is there transportation from the airport to the retreat venue? The airport is 20 – 30 minutes from the venue, depending on the time of day. Uber, Lyft, 24-7 Ride (reservations@247RIDE.com or 888-700-1222) and Prime Time Services (https://www.primetimeshuttle.com/airports/john-wayne-airport/#/search), operate from John Wayne, Santa Ana Airport
Can I extend my stay, arriving early or leaving later? Hotel Joaquin has graciously offered participants the option to extend their stay at the room block rates, provided the hotel has availability.
Can you accommodate dietary restrictions? Laguna has such a variety of cuisines, you’ll be able to find any number of restaurants to accommodate your dietary restrictions.
Is it safe to travel to Laguna Beach? Laguna Beach is very safe and know to be one of the safest beach communities in California. This community was chosen as our retreat location because as locals, we feel very comfortable visiting alone or with others. Due to its diverse population, Laguna Beach is open and welcoming to all.
What is the weather like? Beach weather can be changeable. The average temperature for late October is mid 70’s daytime, and low 50’s in the evening. Layers are your best approach.
What do I pack? Laguna is a casual beach town where anything goes. During the day we’ll be outside and, on the beach, so dress for comfort. It’s a very walkable town, so pack comfortable walking shoes, sandals and flip/flops for the beach. For the evening, think resort casual, such as sun dress, casual dress, slacks, jeans, shorts and a sweatshirt, hoodie or jacket. To protect skin and eyes, bring a hat, sunglasses and sunscreen.
What if I have mobility issues? Our retreat is deeply anchored by the ocean and beach. Because a large portion of our daily practices and exercises take place on the beach, the sandy terrain may pose challenges for those with limited mobility.
