• To be respectful of the time we have together and the value of this work.
• To provide support and guidance designed to move you forward on your journey.
• To offer encouragement, feedback and tips throughout the Retreat.

As the Attendee, it is your role and responsibility:

• To be fully present at the Retreat, which means no use of cell phones or e-mail during Retreat sessions, and not arriving late or leaving early from Program Activities or the Retreat, if at all possible.
• To fully show up physically, mentally and emotionally as you are to each and every day and session of the Retreat, no matter what life or schedule distractions arise or resistances you may encounter.

• To ask any questions you may have as they arise.

Scheduling, Travel and Hotel Accommodations:

• You should check-in Thursday April 23 and check out either Saturday or Sunday. I recommend checking out Sunday so that you don't have to rush off Saturday evening. 

Sessions:

• Thursday - Registration and Welcome Reception from 6 - 8pm
• Friday - Registration, 8 - 8:30
• Friday & Saturday, Program Event 8:30 - 6:00
• Friday evening Q&A with Dr. V

Accommodations:

You are responsible for booking your own travel (including air and/or ground transportation) and your room reservation at the Hotel. You are also responsible for following all Hotel and Retreat policies including the following:

• Room reservations are to be made directly with the Hotel using the link provided in an email provided to you.
• If you do not use this link you can call 1-206-625-1111 and state that you want the Breast Cancer Conqueror rate, or you may book your stay in other accommodations nearby, including other hotels or Air B&Bs. Staying off-site/not at the Hotel does have the potential to change your Retreat experience and the Retreat Facilitator is not responsible in any way if you choose to stay at another hotel or location off-site.
• There is a discounted room rate of $ for the Retreat, but the number of rooms in this room block are limited so we recommend making all hotel reservations ASAP to ensure you receive a room at this discounted rate. The discounted room rate is NOT guaranteed to be available to you as it is first-come, first-serve.
• Please note that staying at our hotel conference center makes it easy for you to meet like-minded women and new friendships and it helps me pay for the facilities to hold this event.
• You, as a Hotel guest, are subject to all regular Hotel policies, including noise, number of people per room, etc. so it is your responsibility to become familiar with the Hotel expectations and policies upon check in.
• The Retreat Facilitator is not responsible for pairing you with a roommate. If you do choose to have a roommate, if your roommate experience is not satisfactory, you, and not the Retreat Facilitator, are responsible for making alternative arrangements at your own expense.

Investment and Payment.

Investment:   You agree that you are financially willing and able to invest in this Retreat by choice, and that by so doing, you are not incurring any economic hardship in any way.

• Your investment is $397 or you have the option of making 3, $139 monthly payments

Payment Authorization and Receipt:  If paying by PayPal, debit card, or credit card, you give us permission to automatically charge your credit card or debit card as payment for your Retreat without any additional authorization, and you will receive an electronic receipt.  If I choose to provide you with a Paypal invoice instead, you are required to manually pay it by the date due on the invoice or your Retreat will be put on hold until payment is made.

Other Important Terms

Notice:  All correspondence or notice required regarding the Retreat or this Agreement shall be made to me at Support@BreastCancerConqueror.com and to you at the e-mail address provided with your billing information. Should your e-mail address or contact information change at any time throughout the course of the Program, it is your responsibility to provide your new contact information to me within 7 days of any such change.

Entire Agreement, Assignment, Survivability and Waiver: This Agreement contains our entire agreement. This Agreement may be modified or amended at any time if the amendment is made in writing and is signed by both of us. You may not assign your rights or obligations under this Agreement to anyone else. The failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver or limitation of the right to later enforce and compel strict compliance with every part of this Agreement.  In the event that any part of this Agreement is deemed invalid or unenforceable, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any of the remaining portions of the Agreement which shall be severed and remain in full force.

Governing Law:  This Agreement shall be construed according to the laws of the County of Spokane in the State of Washington

Dispute Resolution:  It is hoped that should we ever have any differences, we could be able to work them out through a phone conversation or e-mail correspondence. However, should a dispute ever arise between us, we agree now that we will submit to binding arbitration before a single arbitrator, selected jointly, in accordance with the American Arbitration Association Rules. Prior to seeking arbitration, you must submit your complaint to me with full details about your dissatisfaction via e-mail to me at my e-mail address below. You understand and agree now that the only remedy that can be awarded to you through arbitration is full refund of your payment made to date. No award of consequential or of any other type of damages may be granted to you. Any judgment on an arbitrator’s award, if made, is binding and may be entered into any court having the appropriate jurisdiction. By signing this Agreement you are agreeing to a modification of the statute of limitations such that any arbitration must be commenced within one (1) year of the date of the act, omission, or other conduct complained of as submitted by you in e-mail, or shall otherwise be forfeited forever. You also agree that should arbitration take place, it will be held in Spokane County in the State of Washington and the prevailing party shall be entitled to all reasonable attorney’s fees and costs necessary to enforce the Agreement.

Non-Disparagement:  In the event of a dispute between us, you agree to not engage in any conduct or communications, public or private, including social media, designed to disparage the Program or me, including the Healing Diva Retreat, Breast Cancer Conqueror and my business. Where requested by law or arbitration, of course, you are not prohibited from sharing your thoughts and opinions as a part of the legal process.
