The Metamorphosis Retreat returns to the Sarasota-Bradenton area for its second iteration February 18-20, 2022. The event is hosted by MTV’s Siesta Key reality star, Chloe Trautman, international artist, Alexis Fraser (a.k.a. Lipstick Lex), and entrepreneur, coach, and speaker, Jen Smith. The dynamic trio, all hailing from different generations, backgrounds, upbringings, and careers paths, set out to offer a unique personal and professional development experience to women from around the country. The team has joined forces with a myriad of partners to deliver a dynamic retreat to give attendees a transformational and safe space to turn inward, connect, and explore health, wellness, mindset, spirituality, self-development, business, and more. Presenters include a thoughtful lineup of professional experts, healers, practitioners, and businesswomen working together to revolutionize thoughts, expand minds, build relationships, network, and level up in all areas of life. 

“We wanted to provide a profound, beautiful weekend away that would offer our fellow women, mothers, wives and entrepreneurs time to reconnect with themselves, connect with each other and learn from the best in order to return home with heaps of inspiration, new contacts and actionable goals to uplevel their lives. For us, it’s about making relationships that last a lifetime and lifting up our guests with real-life stories and knowledge that will undoubtedly help them elevate their confidence and put their dreams into action!” says co-founder Alexis Fraser.

This year, event organizers have partnered with local entrepreneur Amber Duncan and the team at the headquarters of her thriving Bradenton-based subscription styling brand, Jackie, where Saturday and Sunday’s event will be hosted. Meanwhile, presenters include a lineup of professional experts, healers, practitioners, and businesswomen working together to revolutionize thoughts, expand minds, build relationships, network, and level up in all areas of life.

The 2022 Metamorphosis Retreat offers two tiers of tickets, with steeply discounted presale rates starting at $249 for the three-day event being released to the public on Tuesday, November 9 at 10:00am EST. Ticket prices will increase on November 23, 2022.
