If you’ve heard any recent episodes of this podcast, you’ve probably heard me talking about my Daily Writer Retreat. By the time this episode goes live, the retreat will have happened the previous week. But I’ve learned that writing retreats can be a great way to serve your audience by bringing people together in a format that helps them make huge leaps quickly.

My guest today is here to help us unlock the power of writing retreats. Using her background in business, entrepreneurship, and writing, Lisa Shaughnessy is on a mission to help writers find writing retreats that give them the support they need to tell their stories and to feel inspired.

She created the Writing Retreat Sampler, a virtual event that allows writers to hear directly from writing retreat hosts about how their retreats are run, and get a feel for what types of writing retreats are out there. You can learn more at https://writingretreatsampler.com.

She’s also building a website, https://writingretreatdirectory.com, where writing retreat hosts will be able to promote their retreats and writers can use the filters to find ones that fit their time, budget, and writing needs.

Lisa is also the author of the book Unlock Your Hidden Revenue. In her off time, she loves traveling and hiking with her husband and their dog. You can find her on Facebook and Instagram.
