"I attended the Path of the South retreat in April 2026. I really didn’t know what to expect, as being open spiritually is very new to me, and despite working on myself for 20+ years, I had spent most of my life hiding this side of myself from everyone to stay protected. It was a big step to take the leap and fly out to a country I don’t know and engage with the retreat, and part of my decision to do so was from talking to Sofia and Carlos. I saw what wonderful, caring people they are. The decision became an easy one as I saw how much love, knowledge, and passion they want to share with the world.  Attending the retreat only reinforced this, and I had a lovely time. I remember Carlos telling me that if I wanted to see real magic, I should come, and the experiences I had delivered far beyond anything I have ever experienced and in some instances defined the reality I knew. I met a lot of loving people who, despite my lack of Spanish, made great efforts to support, guide, and care for me. The effort and amount of love that went into the ceremonies are incredible. If you’re curious or not sure about the retreat, take the time to talk to Carlos and Sofia and see how you feel. And make the effort to prepare and attend if you feel the call. You won’t regret it. I was already on the path to change my life before my retreat, and since attending, I have become unstoppable."
