Imagine you and your business partner build something together, it becomes successful and immensely popular -- inspiring many and impacting lives. Then, one day, you realize it is not brining you the same joy and, in fact, is stressing you out. So, you finally decide to "press pause" because you become a parent and your business partner realized that maybe the business should pause as well. No one seems to be able to understand why you would do this, but you both realize it is the right thing to do. This takes guts, and it is part of the story of Ali Leipzig and Michelle Garside - Cofounders of Soul Camp (a premier adult sleep-away camp for wellness and transformation). They are also founder of Soul Camp Creative, which is devoted to working with conscious companies and brands that are positively impacting the planet. Ali and Michelle share their journey with Julie Chan.

Not every entrance into parenthood is easy and joyful with a soundtrack of birds singing blissfully as you walk carefree through the park.  You may even mutter under your breath, “This is really f**king hard, what have I done?” In this episode of Yoga | Birth | Babies, I speak openly with co-founder of Soul Camp and Soul Camp Creative, Michelle Goldblum.  In this refreshing conversation Michelle honestly opens up about the challenges she faced the first few months of her son’s life and how she found her way to enjoying and embracing motherhood.  Friendship and connection were a major support for Michelle as she found her stride in motherhood. Many new parents will be able to relate to Michelle’s struggles and perhaps feel comforted in knowing they are not feeling alone with these feelings. “Friendship is born at the moment when one person says to another, “What! You too?” I thought I was the only one.” C.S Lewis In this episode:  A little about Michelle and how she got started to get into the health and wellness world. Defining self care and the role it plays in her life. Finding the balance of work and family .  Michelle talks about her pregnancy, birth and transition into motherhood. The bumps of the first few months and how she navigated through them. How the reality of motherhood matched with the ideas she grew up with. Michelle’s favorite part of parenthood.

What does it take to start your dream company? How do we work closely with our best friends? And what does friendship mean to us today as adults? We interview the founders of Soul Camp, Michelle Goldblum and Ali Leipzig on the podcast! Soul Camp creates multi-day, multi-location all-inclusive wellness sleep away and day camp for adults. Campers leave their worries and iPhones behind to gather and participate in dozens of workshops, classes, and seminars that nourish their bodies, minds and spirits. In this episode we dive into how Soul Camp unfolded (what a fun and innovative story we uncovered!). We were reminded why practicing non-attachment when creating a business can leave room for surprise and more fun and why women need friendship more than ever!

Episode 163: Soul Camp co-founders Michelle Goldblum and Alison Leipzig united to bring all of the things they loved together to create a completely transformative experience for both themselves and their communities. Going to sleepaway camp together as children, and now, both entrepreneurs in the health & wellness space, they saw that there lacked large-scale community experiences that were not only deep and healing, but fun and playful as well. They believe in the power of joy to change the world. And it happens, one camper at a time. Show notes: Soul Camp, a beautiful sleepaway camp for adults, is far from being an ordinary retreat.

How Michelle and Alison got to the place where play has been so important Ali’s struggle in coping with her perfectionist nature amidst life’s hustle/bustle. How she was introduced to Marianne Williamson’s work on spirituality and how she discovered her innermost self’s longing for play. Ali and Michelle went to camp together and didn’t know each other. They met again years after and instantly connected because of their same love for play. How Michelle’s success and eventual heartache brought her back to the spiritual community. How Soul Camp’s community aspect helps her discover her true self behind the false façade that she herself created through the years. Why I related to Soul Camp and why I am so called to look into it. How it so similarly reflects my own core. Soul camp is an introduction to alternative spirituality. We can build up our ability to love through pleasure, happiness, and joy --- and those all come from play. There’s no play in perfectionism. Try more play! Look for play! Create play! Go play! There’s a correlation between the lack of play and the ho-humness that adults feel in their life. Ali’s battle with food. There’s magic in darkness. It just takes courage, support and a willingness to go there. Michelle’s difficulty in dealing with other people’s feelings. You can only accept, appreciate or allow emotions in another person to the extent that you do that within yourself. Expect fear when you’re doing big things and creating something new.
