I’m forever changed by this past weekend…

This community is one of the most important things to me, and it brings out my motherly side. I want to protect it. Make sure it stays safe, healthy and happy.

I met about 50% of you for the first time at Create/Retreat. From your intros on our private Discord chat, I had the sense you would fit in perfectly. But actually meeting you…damn. I am blown away by the quality of people here.

You are brilliant, talented, tenacious, diverse, inclusive, supportive, beautiful, kind and just. so. cool.

THANK YOU!

Post-Retreat Meeting:

We have a TownHall meeting on Discord (#Bohemia-Square) tomorrow (July 20th) at 6pm to talk about the Create/Retreat NFTs. I’ll take you through our NFT strategy, teach you how to claim your NFT with the Sequence Wallet, and do a quick web3 overview for anyone who is new to the space. Anyone can join but this is especially important if you came to Create/Retreat 😊

Bohemian spotlight:

I want to thank a few people who helped curate this magical weekend. I’m just one of several people who worked hard to make Create/Retreat possible.

First, thank you to my right hand, Matt. Matt was the mastermind behind the Create/Retreat operations as well as one of the masterful musicians at the Bohemia Concert.

Thank you to the incredibly talented musicians that collaborated with us at Bohemia Concert: Eber, Dante, and Roxy. Thank you to all the amazing musicians who shared their art with us at the open mic.

Thank you to Eleia and Mikey, our extraordinary Chefs, for the extraordinary food and care. And on that note, thank you to EVERYONE who offered us a kind hand in the kitchen!

Thank you to Gina and Celina Pecchia, for eliciting some of the most vulnerable and beautiful sharing I’ve ever seen. And an extra thank you to Celina for being the best MC on planet Earth.

Thank you to Giovanni for guiding us through the most powerful breathwork ceremony. Thank you for the tears, the laughter, the screams, the howls.

Thank you to Matteo for not only DJing a mega-fun Sunday party but also for sharing your tools and knowledge with us at the DJing workshop!

Thank you to Arshia, our Director and camera OP. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can fully trust behind the camera.

Thank you to Sandra, the artist who we chose to sponsor. Sandra built a super creative and collaborative space with the community painting project!

A big, and special thank you to Michael Sanders, Alaya, Sierra, Keaton, Angel, Oliver, Celina, Anthony, and Laura for helping us with decor, kitchen, sign-in, clean-up, and overall love and support.

And thank you to Moosa for taking gorgeous pictures of everyone throughout the weekend! Link for our shared album is on the private Create/Retreat Discord chat.

A huge thank you to our sponsors:

Elemental Rhythm, an on-demand breathwork platform and breathwork-facilitator course. Giovanni, who led us through the transformative breathwork experience at Create/Retreat, is giving Bohemians free access to a breathwork mini-course and a free sauna + ice bath session at the Elemental Wellness Studio (show this email at the front desk until August 31st to claim). If you’d like to become a breathwork facilitator, be sure to reach out to him at [email protected]

Barbet, a local bevy business that makes naturally-flavoured sparkling drinks. Barbet was a hit at the Bohemia Concert, and you can order them right to your home. A bi-monthly subscription of Light Wave + Wild Card is my go-to for entertaining.

Sero, a Canadian producer and distributor of ethically-made mushroom products. You can find the micros we shared at Create/Retreat on their website.

Parch, another local bevy business that is revolutionizing the zero-proof industry with their delicious, non-alcoholic agave mocktails. They were a hit at our Sunday morning party, and the Spicy Piñarita was the Bohemian favourite.

Love,
Pandora Skyes
