The Sarah Society Annual Retreat

May 4-7, 2025 • Shelbyville, Michigan

Featuring Aundi Kolber

Join us May 4-7, 2025 for our annual retreat.

This year’s featured presenter is Aundi Kolber.

Aundi is a licensed professional counselor (LPC), speaker, and author of Try Softer, The Try Softer Guided Journey, Strong Like Water, and the newly released Strong Like Water Guided Journey.

Aundi is the owner of Kolber Counseling, LLC, established in 2009. She has received additional training in her specialization of trauma- and body-centered therapies, including the highly researched and regarded eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy.

As a survivor of trauma and a lifelong learner, Aundi brings hard-won knowledge around the work of change, the power of redemption, and the beauty of experiencing God with us in our pain.

This retreat is for any woman who has experienced betrayal trauma regardless of her marital status. It will focus on our own personal journeys of healing.

Come join us for two-and-a-half days of soul restoration and encouragement. 

Last day to register is Saturday, April 12, 2025.
