AuDHD Business Builders Retreat 2023
September 15th-18th - Manitou Springs, Colorado
An All-Inclusive Adventure
A business write-off to write home about.
We'll do equal parts learning, adventuring and practicing how to deeply reset.
Luxury Accomodations
Whether you want total and complete privacy or you want to share some space with a colleague, every room at The Avenue is pure luxury. King size beds, amazing views & deep soaker tubs, oh my! We'll be right in town, so it's convenient to walk to shops, groceries & anything you might need. Did I mention there's a 12 person hot-tub?
Local Catered Food
Manitou Springs is a small mountain town, but the food is big! All three meals each day will be taken care of, either by grazing (a fridge stocked with all your favorite goodies), catered specialty meals or a night out on the town!
*Dietary restrictions will be accomodated*
Community Building
Possibly the most important thing in all of this is YOU! Shared identity groups create magic. Everything gets easier in a group & with the proper support. We'll create long-lasting connections with colleagues that *GET IT*.
Unique Learning Sessions
INFO DUMP ALERT! Deep dive into the specifics of ADHD & Autism from a neurodiversity affirming therapist and coach. You'll learn how to utilize these insights to build a business that is built around your superpowers. Together we'll tackle some big questions and make an actionable plan for you & your business.
Exclusive Speakers
Our guest speakers will share their unique expertise, including a professional home organizer and several surprise speakers possibly including: an ADHD specialized dietician, a psychiatric nurse practitioner with specialization in autism, psychedelic work & yoga and/or an ADHD psychologist with a specialty in mindful hypnosis
Adventures & Reset
We'll explore the area together and participate in several unique local activities. The aim is to create a good balance between adventure and rest.
NeuroAbundant
Business Support
We do things differently! As ADHD &/or autistic humans, we have a unique neurotype with specific struggles & strengths.
When neurotypical business coaches offer you advice about how to make money and scale your business... it probably won't automatically work for you.
But that doesn't mean you aren't capable of being an amazing, resourceful and self-sufficient entrepreneur.
Most business advice out there is not set up for your brain and it doesn't consider what YOU need to thrive.
At times it might feel impossible to accomplish all that you want, but I promise you, in the most real & anti-guru way that I can: IT IS POSSIBLE!
Even in this hyper-capitalist nightmare that is our modern world.
Many business gurus will tell you "It's all about perfecting your mindset". And while there definitely is a kernel of truth to this, the reality is more complex, more nuanced and involves getting to know YOUR unique mind & what it needs. And we don't do that kind of work in a vacuum. We can do this work with support & community.
IS THIS RETREAT FOR ME?
Do you...
If yes, this retreat was designed for you!
And I would be honored to have you join us 💙
Meet Your Host & Speakers
Molly Herold, EdM, MA, LCMHC
Therapist | Coach | AuDHD Entreprenur | Owner of NeuroAbundant Retreats
As a therapist who specializes in neurodivergence, I've helped many clients better understand their unique brain chemistry, consider intersecting identities and build vast & deep systems of support.
This first retreat is a true labor of love and combines many of my nerdiest special interests including ADHD coaching, collective participatory research, teaching & facilitating, the magic of shared identity group work and well-organized travel and adventure. I genuinely can't wait to dive in!
Hope to see you in Manitou!
Alyssa Allegretti
Professional Home Organizer | Housekeeping Consultant
Hi, my name is Alyssa, and I’m a professional home organizer and housekeeping consultant who struggles with adulting. I became obsessed with learning the skills of household management because “basic” functionality and everyday life logistics were incredibly difficult for me.
As a low income, chronically fatigued, neurodivergent single mother raising neurodivergent children, I know better than most how important it is to cultivate a home environment that supports our ability to take care of our bodies, our dependents, and our responsibilities.
I will sit with you over Zoom while you clean out your closet and cry about your mom. It will kind of feel bad but also feel really good. I know you didn't know you needed this service, but you probably do.
Ginelle Krummey, LCMHC
Feminist Therapist | Burnout Consultant | Radical Business Strategist | Intensive Therapy Retreat Facilitator
Ginelle Krummey, LCMHC provides regular and intensive feminist analytic therapy in her scenic homesite office in the mountains outside of Asheville, NC. Ginelle specializes in burnout response and prevention for individuals and corporate entities.
Ginelle contributes to the advancement of feminism with advocacy writing about the experiences and unmet needs of the population of birthing people she calls breastfeeding breadwinners.
Ginelle listens to the lived experiences of ND, ADHD and Autistic people to inform her clinical practice while simultaneously exploring the shape of her own mask.
Dr. Liz Slonena, PsyD
Clinical Psychologist | ADHD Business Consultant | Creator of Mindful Hypnosis
I take neurodivergent entreprenuers from stuck to inspired in 60 minutes. I’m an ADHD psychologist, keynote speaker, business consultant, content creator, and mindful hypnotherapist. If you can’t tell already, I’m a recovering perfectionist with attention abundance (aka ADHD).
I created Brief Mindful Hypnosis, a science-backed way to rapidly overcome stress to help you feel more calm, creative, and confident in 7 days. With over a decade of clinical research and publishing over a dozen scientific studies, I’m unapologetically nerdy and interweave the he(art) & science of mind body medicine so you can step into your power and get shit done.
I share my expertise and dopamemes across social media and YouTube (@dr.lizlistens) and have been featured on Insight Timer, BetterSleep, Aura, Thrive360, and Mooditude. When I’m not working, you can find me frolicking in the forests of Asheville, escaping reality with video games, or hyperfocusing on a new art project.

I know I always ask ALOT of questions. Your questions are welcome here!
If you have more specific questions - don't hesitate to email me.
TL;DR - "It costs that much because it takes me f*cking hours"
Longer less silly answer:
Learning retreats are a business expense that lifts up your business AND those in your communities (local, career & identity).
Being a business owner and an anti-capitalist are not mutually exclusive categories! NeuroAbundant Retreats aims to create financially accessible experiences. Flexible payment plans are offered to increase accessibility. Sponsorship is another way to attend a retreat if you don't currently have the funds. Read more about sponsorship here!
I also believe in money transparency & empowering other small business owners through money transparency. Learn more about the cost of building and offering this retreat here.

It is a goal of NeuroAbundant Retreats to offer CEUs at future retreats. CEUs MAY be offered by September, but there is no guarantee.
You may cancel your retreat reservation and receive a full refund, excluding the non-refundable deposit, if the cancellation is made 60 days before the start of the retreat (July 18th, 2023). If you cancel between 45-to-59 days before the start of the retreat, you may receive a 50% refund of receipt costs, excluding the non-refundable deposit. Any cancellations made within 45 days of the start of the retreat are non-refundable unless special arrangements are made with the retreat host, which is at the full discretion of the host. You may advertise and sell your retreat reservation at any time prior to the start of the retreat, if given written notice & permission by the host.
The deposit is non-refundable unless the retreat is cancelled by the host. In the event of necessary cancellation due to COVID-19, you may be asked to produce reasonable documentation, which will be determined at the discretion of the host.
At a luxury vacation rental called The Avenue in downtown Manitou Springs, Colorado. You can check out more about the both here!
Manitou Springs is 1.5 hours from Denver International Airport. There are multiple ways to get from Denver to Manitou Springs including bus, shuttle or car rental!
While there is an airport in Colorado Springs (10 minutes from Manitou), I highly recommend flying to Denver instead in order to save yourself time & money.
More information about travel options, group shuttle booking & preparing for Colorado will be linked here soon, so check back!
If you'd like additional customized support planning your trip, consider booking NeuroAbundant Travel Support with Molly!
Colorado has wild weather & is at a HIGH altitude. Please check back here to learn more about how to prepare for traveling to Colorado.

Consider purchasing NeuroAbundant Travel Support.
It's always a balance.
Traveling and group activities certainly contain risks. And there are significant rewards.
If you decide to take this risk, I empower you to take any/all precautions before & during travel including but not limited to:
- Testing before hand
- Wearing an N95 or KN95 mask
- Monitoring for any symptoms prior to the trip
- Reaching out to cancel / resell your reservations if you are feeling ill
- Potentially limiting interactions prior to and upon returning from a trip
- Communicating with folks in your life/bubble about travel & increased risks
But you probably know all this & will make the best decision for you based on the risks involved.
As of the writing of this FAQ section, numbers of hospitalizations for cases of COVID-19 in Colorado are very low. You can check out more information about that here. That could always change & keeping an eye on the numbers helps us assess risk level.
At the retreat, there will be plenty of outside spaces to gather, weather permitting. Our group (with speakers & guests) will never exceed 25 people. But we will be sharing a number of inside spaces and masks will not be required at this time. This is subject to change.
