We are deeply saddened by the escalation of the coronavirus/COVID-19 situation around the world. The Gratitude Project team, in partnership with Cragun’s Resort, has spent considerable time reflecting on the best way to support our Gratitude Project community and responsibly make decisions to help keep our communities and our families safe and healthy.
Thus, it is with a heavy + hopeful heart that I announce
the postponement of The Gratitude Project 2020 until April 16-18, 2021.
Your existing retreat registration will move to April 16-18, 2021. If the new dates do not work for you due to a prior engagement, you will receive a full credit to next year’s retreat. If you have booked your room through Cragun’s Resort, you will receive a full refund within the next 10-14 business days. There is no action you need to take to receive this credit. I sincerely appreciate your patience and support during this time.
With Love and Gratitude, Robyn and The Gratitude Project Team

Meet the Gratitude Project Host
Robyn once lived her life as a perfectionist and someone who always had to feel accepted. She was scared to stand out, scared to use her voice and was stuck in a world dictated by her past. Through expressing massive courage, bravery and tenacity, Robyn finally shattered her limiting beliefs about herself and her life when she faced her fear of dealing with childhood trauma head-on. Robyn has since advanced her education, achieved personal healing and growth and created a life aligned with who she really is.
She believes that everyone deserves to live a life they love. Her mission is to coach women and girls toward embracing who they are and gain the power and confidence to live the life of their dreams – a life free from self-doubt and full of self-love. Her goal is help others see the potential they have within themselves to live their happiest, healthiest, most grateful lives, without being afraid to take risks or explore life.
