IMILOA PRESENTS

Are you an entrepreneur, community leader, coach or someone always serving others and under-serving yourself? Then the Live Life Activated retreat is calling your name! Experience a 6 day immersive, transformational week of life-changing activities aligning your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual practices while activating connection and purpose with like-minded entrepreneurs, creators, and leaders who are impacting lives across the world.

AUGUST 16 – 21, 2024

About The Retreat

As leaders and creators, we often put so much burden on ourselves.  The pressure of building a business, creating our own brand, leading others and managing employees while driving impact can lead us to fall out of practice or forget about recharging ourselves.  We often are so focused on supporting others that we overlook our own health which can lead to burnout,  mindless escapes (social media takeovers, Netflix overloads, etc.) or even self-destructive activities leaving us mentally, emotionally and even physically drained and unhealthy.  If this sounds like you then the Live Life Activated retreat is calling.

You will be challenged to connect with yourself at a deeper level while also building lifelong connections.  Lead by world renown facilitators guiding us through a journey that will push you to become more aligned with yourself, allow you to deepen connection to others and leave you with tools to integrate into your life when you return to your daily routine. We do this by focusing all activities and workshops on aligning our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual practice with our mission and goals in life.

What You Will Learn

  • How to fine tune your mind and body to be the healthiest version of yourself
  • The Power of Faith and Intention Setting through non- religious Prayer
  • The power of giving back
  • How to rewire negative emotions and your nervous system to increase clarity, focus and productivity
  • Using your sexual energy to stand more in your power and expression and how that translates into higher fulfillment and productivity in your life and business
  • Communication practices to release your emotions in a healthy manner while reducing stress and anxiety in tense situations
  • Radical authenticity and communication
  • Opening up our emotional aquity and leveraging our emotions to uplevel our life
  • The Power of Curiosity in reaching exponential growth

What You Will Gain

Connection, community, clarity and renewed activation.

Your spirituality will be deepened and emotionally you will feel more connected to your soul which will propel all aspects of life.

You will gain new practices to live a healthier, more fulfilled purpose where you are more motivated to make a positive impact more than ever before.

You will develop life long friendships and lives will be changed forever (Just ask previous participants!)

You will step into your future self.

MICHAEL G. DASH is an entrepreneur, best selling author of Chasing The High, recovering addict, community leader, speaker and philanthropist. After a six year lawsuit with a former business partner, he sold his recruiting company of 11 years in 2018.

Having been disconnected from his soul's purpose and passion, Michael started attending both business and personal development retreats first embracing their impact on him and then studying the power they have on others.  Having experienced over 20 retreats over four continents, Michael knew his life work was helping leaders reconnect with themselves and their mission.  He started the Live Life Activated retreats in 2019 bringing in world expert facilitators, who impacted his transformation, to create a game changing experience for others.

Along the way Michael developed numerous tools diving into personal values, mission, alignment and habits focusing on the four main areas of practice that helped him turn his life around: Physical, Mental, Emotional and Spiritual.  This crafted the Live Life Activated retreats which are transforming people's lives.

In Michael's spare time he has raised over $100,000 for the Leukemia, Lymphoma Society while running four marathons and climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro.  He also has dedicated time to volunteering in maximum security prisons teaching heart lead entrepreneurship and giving hope to the otherwise hopeless.   

Michael co-founded the Activated.Life movement, focused on inspiring a culture of positivity, authenticity, passion, empathy, and resilience while giving back to others. He also founded F.A.T.E. From Addict To Entrepreneur and interview series of former addicts who are now successful entrepreneurs around the world. He is passionate about leading retreats and cultivating life shifting experiences.

Luis Iturralde

Hello, I'm Luis Iturralde, a dedicated facilitator and coach specializing in 9D Breathwork and Transformational Breathwork. My profound passion lies in transforming lives and empowering individuals to embrace their true potential by harnessing the power of breathwork to rewire the subconscious mind, release trauma, and let go of emotional burdens.
My journey with breathwork began in 2018, during a fragile period in my life. While serving an 8-year prison sentence, I confronted personal demons and adapted to sobriety after struggling with addiction for over 20 years. It was during this challenging time that I discovered the incredible healing capacity of breathwork.

What is 9D Breathwork?
9D Breathwork is a cutting edge modality that integrates advanced sound technology and specialized breathwork techniques to unlock your inner power and facilitate profound healing and growth.   This conscious, connected breathing technique invites you to release physical and emotional blockages, expand your breath capacity, and tap into your body’s natural ability to heal and transform.  Through a series of intentional breath patterns, you will activate your life force energy, oxygenate your cells, and awaken dormant aspects of yourself.

Testimonials

 – Sasha Rowe, CEO Rivvly

 – John Scott Harrison, Managing Partner HiH LLC

I'm very honored because this retreat is next level. I'm grateful enough to share that I have been teaching and moving from event to event for so many years now, I've been to 60 of these types of retreats and I can say this one is by far one of the best I have ever been to. The quality of the people, the quality of the workshops, the flow between the program and surrendering to what the group feels like doing is super profound and very beautiful.  Michael is an amazing host and facilitator holding the group together with integrity and a healed masculine energy and here at Imiloa, the service, the food at Imiloa it's all just next level and I'm very grateful to be here. 

- Gregorio Avanzani, Life Architect at Prestine Movement

I was super nervous to come, having it been my first retreat and really had no idea what to expect in coming here but coming here has been one of the most life changing experiences I've ever had. I've learned so much about myself and the things I need to overcome and some of the bullshit stories I've been telling myself over the years that I need to recreate. But I've had so many amazing connections that have been made here. I never could have imagined I would have met so many beautiful spirited entrepreneurial people that are making huge impacts on this earth and to know I will be forever connected to them is one of the most beautiful things I could ever ask for.
