Ever feel like you’re one minor inconvenience away from throwing yourself a full-blown pity party? Good news: we’ve decided to make that official — and actually helpful. “Pity Party: Growing Our Compassion for Self and Others” is a women’s retreat happening January 9–11, 2026 at Good Earth Village in Spring Valley, MN, and it’s all about turning those “I cannot do one more thing” moments into gentler, kinder ways of being human. Expect a weekend of laughter, rest, honest conversations, and the kind of compassion that doesn’t require you to pretend everything’s fine. The cost is $200, the vibe is come-as-you-are, and yes — snacks will be involved.
