PLAYFULLY BUILD A VISION FOR YOUR FAMILY

The Yes Retreat

June 20-22, 2025  |  Shades of Green Resort, Room 1  |  Walt Disney World

Two days of playful connection designed to reawaken your imagination and help you gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your family – so you can create and say ‘YES’ to a powerful vision, values, and plan for your lives together.

Chances are you’re here because you’re ready for an immediate shift in your family.

Maybe you’re feeling disconnected, are struggling to disconnect from screens, or are looking for ways to reawaken a natural sense of play and creativity. If that’s you, you’ve come to the right place. It’s time to give yourself and your family your best YES. 

The Yes Retreat is an in-person experience for families with children ages 5+, to help you more rapidly understand one another, develop a family vision, and immediately begin saying ‘yes’ to your vision – and to each other.

TheYes Retreat is for families who…

Are swirling with intensity and busy-ness – yet starving for deeper presence, purpose, and connection

Are brave enough to disrupt broken generational narratives to create a different future for their family

Want to reawaken a spirit of creativity and play that is detached from screens and distractions

Play is how we become – and re-become – who we are.

Research shows that how children play, particularly between the ages of 10 to 14, is a portal into how they will show up in relationships as adults. At Renala, we believe relational health is the foundation for physical, mental, and emotional health, which means play leads to better overall health outcomes for children and adults. 

By playfully exploring who you are and creating a set of values, purpose, and vision alongside your family, you unlock the sustainable mindsets and habits you’ve previously struggled to change, enabling each of you to step into your unique Zone of Genius.

Accelerate your family’s growth through the power of play.

Research also shows that play shortens the path to learning and growth. Learning by traditional methods can take up to 400 repetitions, while learning through play takes only 10 to 20 repetitions.

That’s why play is central to the Yes Retreat. It not only engages your children in the process, it’s key for all of you in accelerating the sustainable change and rhythms you long for.

We use LEGOs, art, and games, and connect you to your favorite stories and movies in ways that are proven to get all of you talking and learning powerful insights about each other. This unlocks productive ways to speak to and relate to each other and paves the way to a vision, purpose, and values that become the anchor of your family.

In just two days, your family will…

1

Deepen

Use everything from LEGO builds to exercises that connect to your family’s favorite stories and movies to help you deepen in who each of you uniquely are – your identity, Strengths, needs, and more.

2

Design

Collaborate using LEGOs, art and stories to discover your values, purpose, and vision as a family. You’ll gain clarity on what you want and need together – creating a family culture of Interdependence.

3

Reflect

Playfully solve your way through common sources of conflict through a gamified process that helps you identify what is and isn’t working in your family. You’ll have a blueprint for having hard conversations that opens you to greater connection, creativity, and possibility. 

4

Celebrate

Close out our transformative time together by designing a modern version of a family crest that we will turn into a beautiful art piece you can hang in your home to remind you to say YES to your family vision – every day.

5

Say Yes!

Launch into your personal Yes Week (or Yes Day), where you’ll continue to deepen in your vision and practice saying YES to it – and to each other – as you play together at Disney or another resort or local destination.

Meet Your Guides

Brittany + Geoff Anderson

Brittany and Geoff founded Renala in 2021, after nearly going through a painful divorce just two years prior. The parents of two active children, ages 14 and 12, they wanted to create a space for families to not just avoid the deep pain they experienced—but to proactively and intentionally lead your family with values, purpose, vision, and a deep understanding of who each of you truly are.

Brittany is a certified transformational coach, CliftonStrengths strategist, LEGO SERIOUS PLAY certified facilitator, and a certified Narrative Intelligence practitioner. Over nearly 20 years, she led vision and strategy development and transformational initiatives for dozens of the most well-known nonprofits, companies, and government agencies, including World Vision, USAID, and the National Cancer Institute.

Geoff is a retired Air Force One Presidential pilot, a brilliant relationship-builder, and the resident joy-bringer to the families Renala serves. 

Our lives are the ultimate proof that Renala’s approaches work. If our family can experience such joy, presence, connection, and vision amid the chaos of military life—then anyone can.

Surprises!

Brittany gets this stuff at such a deep level, better than any marriage/family therapist or counselor you might go to. She’s made me think differently and deeper in many ways that I coach the men in my program, and she brings a lot of what so many call unorthodox modalities into her practice like play – and I can tell you, it works. 

– Joel Aylworth, Human Performance Coach, Founder of Limitless Fathers

Still have questions?

Here’s what other families have asked before choosing to enroll….

When will we start?

Upon registration, we will send you instructions on how to complete the CliftonStrengths assessments for each member of your family.

After you’ve completed the assessments and shared your results with Renala, we’ll create a customized Family Superpower Guide that outlines the unique contributions, needs, and potential pitfalls associated with the top Strengths of each member of your family. We’ll be using these resources throughout the retreat (don’t worry about printing them, we’ll do that for you!)

Then, on Sunday, June 15, at 7pm ET, we’ll gather all of our participating families on Zoom for a kickoff call so we can get to know one another, set expectations, and answer any last-minute questions before you depart for Orlando!

Will this work for my family?

As a retired military family that has thrived amid intense uncertainty and chaos over 20+ years, we’ve seen firsthand the power of our processes and tools to support families. We believe that if our family can do it, then any family can. 

We believe there’s no greater leadership development program than the one you take on with your family. There’s no shortage of coaching programs that focus on one person or one specific problem, and that’s a missed opportunity because no one experiences you as deeply as your spouse or partner and children. You are mirrors for each other. By participating in this process together, you gain a far greater return-on-investment that yields freedom and focus not only at home, but transforms the way each of you leads at work, school, and in your community.

How will it work having kids a part of this process?

No doubt, kids add an extra layer of complexity to any experience 😅 Play is foundational to the Yes Retreat not only because it’s a powerful way to accelerate the process of integrating your identity, vision, and values into your family – it’s also essential to keeping your children engaged.

We also take frequent breaks during the day, including a two-hour eat and play break at lunch. We’ll hit the pool and add some surprises along the way! Still, we realize kids are kids, and that’s OK. We will do everything we can to make up for any lost time and adjust the schedule to your family’s needs.

One or more of my children is younger than five. Can we still participate?

Yes! While the retreat experience is only for school-aged children (ages 5 and above), we are happy to help you arrange local child care in our community with one of our trusted partners. 

I'm a single parent. Am I able to join?

Absolutely! We welcome you and would love to support your family.
