Ready for a reset? In this episode of How to Run Profitable Retreats, I sit down with the powerhouse behind over 250 global transformational retreats and experiences — Marisa Wong, CEO & Founder of MW Experiences.

Marisa has designed experiences for Fortune 100 brands, elite executives, global leaders, and high‑performing teams… but what makes her work extraordinary is her philosophy: people don't need to retreat from their lives — they need experiences that help them return to life more aligned, energized, and alive.

In this conversation, we dive into:

▪️ Why "experiences" outperform traditional retreats — and how language shapes transformation ▪️ The real difference between B2C and B2B retreat models (and why you must choose one) ▪️ What it actually means to refill your own cup as a retreat leader or experience creator ▪️ Her Reset Formula for avoiding burnout and reconnecting with your purpose, vision, and joy

This episode will challenge you to rethink how you create, deliver, and sell transformational containers — and inspire you to build experiences your audience will remember for a lifetime.
