Content shouldn't drain you, it should grow your retreat business.

In this episode of How to Run Profitable Retreats, I sit down with Louis Swart, founder of Ironbrij, to talk about how retreat leaders and coaches can create content that converts using AI, without burnout or inconsistency.

We break down why most people are overwhelmed by content, how AI can support (not replace) your voice, and why being specific, consistent, and delegated is the real growth advantage, especially if you want to scale retreats like a business.

▪️ Why your audience forgets you if you're not consistently visible
▪️ How AI helps you sound more like yourself, not less
▪️ The difference between generic content and content that attracts buyers
▪️ What to delegate first so you can focus on revenue-driving work
▪️ How to get 6 months of content created in 1 hour

🖤 If content has felt heavy, confusing, or time-consuming, this episode will change how you approach it.

◾️ The difference between JV partners and affiliates (and why it matters)
⬛️ How to create win-win collaborations without being taken advantage of

Welcome back to How to Run Profitable Retreats. I'm your host, Leni Cavazos, and today we're diving into something no one's talking about in the retreat world—what kind of retreat are you actually running?

Most people assume retreats have to be yoga, detox, or wellness. But that's just one tiny slice of what's possible. In this episode, we're unpacking:

◾️ The wide variety of retreat types—from finance, trauma, and divorce to transformation, healing, and beyond
◼️ Why being more specific makes your retreat easier to sell
⬛️ The harsh truth: if your offer could be written by ChatGPT, it's too generic
🖤 How to stop being a "retreat dreamer" and become a retreat CEO
💭 Why niching doesn't exclude people—it magnetizes the right ones

Plus, I'll walk you through how I personally stand out from other retreat coaches (hint: I'm not one)—and how you can, too. Because when only 30% of people care what you do, you better be unforgettable to them.

⚪️ Your retreat is a business.
◻️ Your uniqueness is the asset.
⬜️ And your success depends on your willingness to own both.

In this episode of How to Run Profitable Retreats, host Leni Cavazos sits down with publishing expert and Kingdom Launchpad founder Timothy Flemming Jr. for a powerful conversation that every author, coach, and retreat leader needs to hear.

Timothy has spent over a decade helping hundreds of authors publish their books — but what he discovered is the truth most writers never hear:

The book is not the business.
It's the doorway into the business.

In this eye‑opening episode, Timothy and Leni break down:
▪️ Why most authors don't struggle with writing — they struggle with what comes next
◼️ How your book becomes a gateway into coaching programs, retreats, events, and long‑term client relationships
◾️ The ONE THING every profitable entrepreneur does (and why trying to help everyone keeps you broke and burned out)
✒️ How Timothy and his wife turned one book into a coaching program, a signature event, and a retreat that attracts attendees from all over the world
⬛️ The mindset shift every expert must make to turn their message into a scalable business
▫️ The #1 mistake that keeps authors overwhelmed, underpaid, and hidden

Leni and Timothy also dive into niching, messaging, transformation‑based offers, and the real reason "casting a wide net" kills your momentum.

If you've ever wondered how to turn your book or expertise into a profitable retreat, coaching program, or transformational ecosystem — this episode is your blueprint.

Marisa has designed experiences for Fortune 100 brands, elite executives, global leaders, and high‑performing teams… but what makes her work extraordinary is her philosophy: people don't need to retreat from their lives — they need experiences that help them return to life more aligned, energized, and alive.

▪️ Why "experiences" outperform traditional retreats — and how language shapes transformation
▪️ The real difference between B2C and B2B retreat models (and why you must choose one)
▪️ What it actually means to refill your own cup as a retreat leader or experience creator
▪️ Her Reset Formula for avoiding burnout and reconnecting with your purpose, vision, and joy

This episode will challenge you to rethink how you create, deliver, and sell transformational containers — and inspire you to build experiences your audience will remember for a lifetime.
