Give a Retreat Gift They’ll Treasure
And an Experience They’ll Never Forget
Retreats are powerful. They create space for transformation, clarity, and connection. But how do you help guests carry that magic home?
Wishbeads are more than jewelry—they’re a wearable reminder of their journey, their breakthroughs, and the wishes they set for the future.
This free guide will show you all the ways to incorporate Wishbeads into your retreat—from guided exercises to closing ceremonies—so your participants leave with a tangible, meaningful keepsake.
Why Wishbeads Are the Perfect Retreat Addition
A Thoughtful Gift with Deep Meaning
Finding the right retreat gift can be challenging. Wishbeads go beyond the ordinary, offering your participants a personal, intentional keepsake that reflects their journey.
An Interactive Ritual to Enhance Their Experience
Wishbeads are more than jewelry—they’re an immersive practice. Guide your guests through a powerful intention-setting session, turning their wishes into something tangible.
A Lasting Symbol of Transformation
After the retreat ends, the work continues. Wishbeads serve as a daily reminder of the breakthroughs, insights, and connections made during their time with you.
Tired of Generic Retreat Gifts?
Planning a retreat is no small feat. You put your heart into creating a transformative experience, but finding the right balance of meaningful gifts and engaging activities can feel impossible.
Journals, tote bags, and generic keepsakes don’t reflect the deep transformation that happens at your retreat. Wishbeads offer a refreshing alternative—a beautiful, intentional gift that doubles as a powerful retreat experience and becomes a lasting reminder of the magic you shared.

Incorporate into Your Retreat – Use Wishbeads as part of a ceremony, meditation, or closing ritual.
Foster Ongoing Transformation – Help guests stay connected to their goals long after the retreat ends.

Hear from Our Happy Wish Leaders
From Jessie Mahoney, MD, Founder of Pause & Presence Coaching and Retreats
“At my Pause & Presence wellness retreats, I guide women physicians through a journey of mindfulness, healing, renewal, and transformation. I send them home with a visual reminder of their experience and intention moving forward – a Wishbead bracelet. I hand-select the stones and the intention that align with each woman’s energy and their personal journey. The experience of setting an intention and sealing it inside their bracelet has been incredibly meaningful — attendees tell me all the time they wear their Wishbeads daily. Many even arrive for a second retreat experience wearing their Wishbracelet. They leave wearing another one.”
From Kristine Carlson, Bestselling Author & Retreat Facilitator
“For over a decade, I’ve been leading retreats designed to help women reconnect with their hearts, their purpose, and their joy. I wanted to give my guests something truly special—something that would anchor their transformation long after our time together. Wishbeads became that gift. For each retreat, I select a signature stone that reflects the energy of our experience, and my guests infuse their bracelets with personal intentions. It’s a simple yet profound ritual that deepens their journey and serves as a lasting reminder of the powerful shifts they’ve made. Wishbeads have become an essential part of my retreats, and my guests absolutely love them!”
From Nick Pags, Mindset Coach & Speaker
“At my events, transformation isn’t just something we talk about—it’s something we embody. I wanted a way to help each participant feel seen, valued, and deeply connected to their journey. That’s where Wishbeads comes in. Before each retreat, I hand-select a stone for every attendee, choosing one that aligns with their unique intention. When I present their bracelet in a special ritual, it becomes more than just a gift—it’s a powerful moment of recognition, reflection, and commitment. The thoughtfulness of this process deepens their experience, making their personal breakthroughs even more tangible. Wishbeads have become an essential part of the work I do, and my participants leave feeling empowered, supported, and inspired long after the event ends.”
From Jamie Cole, Founder of Breathe Retreat
“At Breathe Retreat, we bring together 50+ dynamic women for a weekend of connection, inspiration, and transformation. Our participants expect a profound experience, which is why we invited Alexa Fischer to lead a Wish Circle and create custom Wishbeads just for our retreat.
Alexa’s presence is authentic, organic, and electric—she doesn’t just speak; she deeply connects. Her session sparked meaningful conversations and lasting change, and the custom Wishbeads became a personalized keepsake that carried the retreat’s magic beyond the weekend.”
Hi, I’m Alexa Fischer.
“Wishing is so much more than blowing out birthday candles. It’s a pathway to unlocking your heart’s desire. By imagining your wish, writing it down, and wearing a beautiful reminder, you have a powerful talisman to inspire you to take action. That’s how wishes come true.”
Wishbeads isn’t just an inspirational jewelry line—it’s a transformative experience designed to help people unlock their inner power and manifest their deepest desires.
