How Solitude and Stillness Became a Path to Healing with Solo Retreat

Discover how resilience, solitude, and intentional disconnection can lead to clarity, healing, and transformation. Eli & Kyle, co-founders of Solo Retreat, share their journey from loss to creating powerful solo retreats.

In a culture obsessed with speed and productivity, silence can feel terrifying. Yet for Eli and Kyle—the co-founders of Solo Retreat Co.—stillness became the most powerful tool for transformation.

Their story is not one of ease, but of resilience. They walked through divorce, miscarriage, devastating wildfires, and collapsed businesses. Each loss could have been the end—but instead, it became the beginning of something profound.

Through their own journey of grief and healing, Eli and Kyle discovered that solitude is not loneliness—it is an invitation. By intentionally disconnecting from the noise, they learned to reconnect with themselves, with their inner voice, and ultimately, with purpose.

Today, they guide others through transformative solo retreats designed to help people find clarity, courage, and healing. These retreats are not about running away from life, but about slowing down long enough to hear what life is truly asking of you.

They remind us that:

  • Self-discovery is the deepest form of productivity.
  • Our pains have purpose when we allow them to transform us.
  • Clarity isn’t a one-time event—it’s a continual practice.

For Eli and Kyle, fulfilment no longer means “doing more”—it means listening deeper. Their work invites us to embrace silence, not as emptiness, but as sacred space where true transformation begins.

👉 If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of your next step, their message is simple: give yourself permission to pause. Sometimes, the greatest breakthroughs happen when you stop chasing and start listening.
