🐚 Schedule

 

Monday, March 23 – Arrival & Welcome Dinner

Check-in at the Beach House begins at 2:00 PM.

Arriving early? Take a stroll on the boardwalk, grab lunch at a local favorite, or explore one of the nearby nature preserves.

Dinner will be served family-style at the house, followed by icebreaker games and group activities to kick off the week.

 

Tuesday, March 24

Get down to business with “Trouble Spots to Triumphs: A Live Business Makeover Session” led by Danelle German. Every business has its pain points — in this interactive workshop, you’ll get practical strategies to turn those challenges into strengths.

That evening, we’ll continue the Beach Retreat tradition with our group dinner at a local Brazilian Steakhouse (cost of this dinner is not included in your room rate).

 

Wednesday, March 25 – Free Day

Enjoy a full day to unwind or explore Myrtle Beach with your fellow CFMGs.

Past retreat attendees have enjoyed kayaking, horseback riding, paddle boarding, visits to the tiger preserve, and even day trips to Charleston. Or just sleep in, catch up on your TBR list in any of the lounge chairs at the house or walk along the beach.

Whether you’re poolside or adventuring, this is your time to relax and recharge.

 

Thursday, March 26

In Lynn's relaxed, practical session Creating Breathing Room in Your Schedule, you’ll learn how to create mental and physical space in your week using simple tools like brain dumps, planner options, and realistic scheduling habits. Walk away with clarity, focus, and a plan to make your business fit your life — not the other way around.

Afterward, join us for a group dinner at the house and easy conversation by the pool.

 

Friday, March 27 

Finish the week strong with “Words That Work: Social Media Storytelling for Cat Groomers.” You already have amazing visuals — now you’ll learn how to write short, impactful captions that connect with cat owners, showcase your expertise, and inspire bookings.

Friday afternoon is open for relaxation, shopping, or simply enjoying the beach before our final night together, filled with group games and conversations.

 

Saturday, March 28

Say your goodbyes and exchange contact info before checking out by 9:30 AM.

You’ll leave refreshed, refocused, and ready to bring new energy back to your grooming business.
