I started City Girl Savings back in 2015, while I didn’t go-full time with running the business until 2021, I’ve had women working for me long before then.

I always had the intention of hosting a team retreat, but the timing was never right.

In 2024, I declared there would never be a “perfect” time, so I made the decision to get our dates on the calendar!

I reached out to The CGS Team via slack to confirm dates nearly 8 months out. By the end of December, I received final RSVPs and started booking everything.

In this episode, I’m sharing a behind-the-scenes look at the first ever CGS Team Retreat and how the overall weekend together went.

 

Here's a glance at this episode:

• [01:53] In spite of working together since 2022, the CGS Team retreat was the first time CGS Team members met in person.
• [03:27] Meeting at Raya’s place in Palm Springs was a great location since 2 of the 5 CGS Team Members already lived in California.
• [07:00] Curious who the first one to fall asleep each night was? If you guessed Raya, you’re right! She shares some background on why that was.
• [10:03] The CGS Team proved they could work well together while trying to get off The Titanic during an Escape Room activity.
• [12:06] Before parting ways Sunday morning, the CGS Team had their final meal together at a local Palm Springs diner!
