Two related ideas for curated retreats that intentionally exclude spiritual, psychedelic, meditation, or yoga elements: 1) Sex-positive retreats for couples focused on intimacy exploration without New Age or drug components. 2) Entrepreneurial 'unplugged' retreats focused purely on business, networking, and strategy without wellness activities.

Why now

A perceived 'turn-off' for many individuals when interesting retreat concepts are bundled with spiritual or psychedelic elements. Success of curated events (like 'Beyond' app retreats) for community building and user acquisition.
