Join us for our third annual women’s week featuring Diane Flynn and Dr. Alexandria White. We recognize the seasons women experience throughout life. Integrating with MEA’s core curriculum, this week empowers women to focus on themselves and the rich lives they can create in their next chapter. Women from prior sessions have forged lasting friendships and are still meeting today to inspire each other and hold one another accountable.
“Some of the best workshop facilitators I’ve seen. They model the perfect alchemy of direct and respectful guidance that helps workshop participants feel both stretched and cared for.”

Learning at all stages of life is the glue that drives us to purpose, community, and our evolving wellbeing. Make a commitment to staying healthier, continuing to grow, having an open mindset, and giving back to the world. Instead of “lifelong learning”, we believe “long life learning,” creates a life that is as deep and meaningful as it is long.
Our expansive beachfront campus encompasses inviting rooms and picturesque grounds, offering a diverse range of amenities. Among these are three pools, including a 25-yard lap pool, along with two hot tubs, two steam rooms, massage rooms, an oceanfront yoga platform, a movement studio, a library, an organic garden, a bocce ball court, and lots of comfortable seating nooks for relaxing, reflecting, and chatting. We’re pleased to share that the number one comment we hear from visitors is that there’s always something new and beautiful to discover. The campus was meticulously designed under the guidance of Oren Bronstein, a longstanding design collaborator of Chip Conley's.
To help you plan your trip please arrive at the Los Cabos International Airport (SJD) by 4 PM on the start date of your workshop and depart anytime on the last date. Our amazing Hospitality Team will coordinate your ground transportation on your behalf.
This area attracts chefs from all over the world to explore “la costa del sabor” (the coast of flavor). The culinary tradition in the Todos Santos/El Pescadero area is well-known as there are few places in the world that have more celebrated restaurants per capita than our location. Most people who move to the area say that the culinary scene is part of the reason they chose to make this home.
We know that our entire society is made stronger when everyone has the opportunity to learn, participate, and grow, regardless of economic status. To support diverse learning we are committed to having a portion of our workshop participants receive an award. We offer two levels of financial aid on a need-aware basis.
Participants are responsible for $3,000 tuition (50% of full workshop tuition) and their travel costs. We will announce gold-level awards within 5 days of application submission. You will be placed on an upgrade waitlist for a private room – exceptions for specific medical or personal conditions may be considered.
Participants are responsible for only $500 tuition (only 8% of full workshop tuition) and their travel costs. We will announce platinum-level awards no more than 5 weeks before the requested workshop start date. Applicants requesting financial aid will be in a shared room with another participant.
Given how much demand we have for this most generous form of financial aid, a small percentage of those who apply are able to be accepted.
