Join special guest star Ellen Comley on Saturday night
for her “Women of a Certain Rage Tour”
Ellen Comley has made a career out of making people laugh, both on stage and in corporate conference rooms. After many years in the advertising business, Ellen quit her high-powered job in L.A. and jumped into the world of stand-up comedy, performing at clubs and corporate events all over Southern California. She has appeared at the Improv, the Comedy Store, and the Ice House, and now after a few life changes (marriage, kids, divorce, cross-country move) she is re-launching her comedy career on the East Coast. A single mother of two boys, Ellen’s fresh and honest take on the ups and downs of being a woman of a certain age in this ridiculous world will make you laugh, think, and probably ask if the bar is still open.

A Few Words From Past Retreat Participants
If you have ever struggled to make sense of where you are now and where you want to be – this retreat is mandatory. It gave me the opportunity to connect with wonderful women in my phase of life. Barbara provided just the right balance of learning and interacting. Facilitating this thought process with other women searching for their own answers is invaluable.
