Breath + Story

At Breath + Story, we believe travel has the power to transform us. The most unforgettable experiences aren’t just about where you go — they’re about how you feel, who you share the journey with, and the stories you bring home.

About Us

Extraordinary journeys. Meaningful connections. Stories you’ll carry forever.

Founded by friends and adventure partners Mindy Barringer and Heather Longhurst, Breath + Story creates thoughtfully curated retreats for women who are ready to explore the world, reconnect with themselves, and experience something truly extraordinary.

Our boutique retreats blend wellness, adventure, connection, and discovery in some of the world’s most inspiring destinations. From breathtaking landscapes and unforgettable cultural experiences to nourishing meals, meaningful conversations, and moments of reflection, every detail is intentionally designed to create a journey that feels both effortless and deeply personal.

We believe the magic is in the details. That’s why our retreats go beyond traditional travel experiences. We hand-select unique accommodations, local experiences, and special touches that create a sense of belonging from the moment you arrive. Our guests aren’t just checking destinations off a list — they’re creating memories, building friendships, and experiencing the kind of moments that stay with them long after they return home.

Breath + Story retreats are designed for women who crave adventure but also value rest, connection, and space to breathe. Whether you’re exploring a new culture, stepping outside your comfort zone, sharing stories around a table, or taking in a once-in-a-lifetime view, each experience is created to help you slow down, be present, and embrace the beauty of the journey.

Come for the destination. Stay for the transformation. Leave with a story worth telling.

Your next great adventure begins here.
