Imagine a serene Pacific Northwest morning at Believe & See Ranch, an urban oasis near Golden Ears Provincial Park. Birdsongs harmonize with garden waterfalls as you savor morning coffee by the pond, instantly connecting with the women in your sharing circle, feeling a deep sense of camraderie, despite having just met.
Amidst graceful willows and towering maples, the horses stand quietly, their presence both calming and powerful. As your eyes meet theirs, you feel a profound connection—a promise of peace and belonging that grounds you in the moment. One horse in particular captures your attention, its steady gaze sparking a deep curiosity: "Is this my muse? What wisdom does he hold for me?"
The day unfolds with energizing life & leadership lessons where intuition guides and nature speaks. The warm breeze and the horses' gentle energy open a portal to self-discovery and empowerment.
Here, you don’t just learn—you live the experience. You feel rooted to the earth, fully present in your body, the strength of the horses reflecting the power within you, as you start to align with your true purpose, ready to make an impact that resonates deeply in both your life and work.
A Tranquil Oasis Awaits You
You've Entered a realm of transformative growth.
The Portal between what is, and what could be.
NO HORSE EXPERIENCE IS NECESSARY
All of our activities with the horses are done on the ground and at your comfort level for proximity.
While most exercises are done at liberty (free roaming) in the fields or paddocks, if you're feeling nervous or unsure around horses, they can be modified to be on a rope & halter or over the fence with no impact to the profound and transformational experience.
Are you seeking clarity and deeper alignment between the success you’ve built and the evolving sense of purpose that’s beginning to call you forward?
Do you feel that quiet, persistent nudge inviting you to step into a more authentic, empowered version of yourself guided by your inner wisdom and body's instincts?
Are you ready to embrace what’s next, even if the path is unclear, trusting that as you reconnect with yourself, the answers will emerge from within?
Are you ready to rediscover the inner strength and energy that has always been within you, empowering you to overcome what holds you back and protect what truly matters, allowing you to shape your legacy while making a meaningful contribution?
Are You feeling the call to something more?
Are you ready to release external expectations and reconnect with your inner wisdom, intuition, and the natural rhythms that guide not just your mind, but your whole being?
Do you feel the pull to slow down and tune into your body’s deeper signals—beyond the surface-level needs—allowing you to access the purpose, connection, and clarity your body has been quietly guiding you towards?
Are you ready to explore how your body and mind work together, gaining insights that transcend surface-level awareness and unlock deeper clarity and understanding
And last but not least.....Do you feel an inexplicable connection to horses, knowing that they hold something profound for you, even if you can’t quite put it into words?
Listen to Your Inner Yes!
YES To All of It!

About Believe & See Ranch
Our Ranch, a unique urban oasis, nestled on 2 acres, is located in Beautiful Maple Ridge BC, a Vancouver suburb, home to the Katzie & Kwantlen First Nations and also known as the "Horse Trail Capital of BC. The extensive trail network here dates back to the 1800's.
Our belief is that the land itself is a co-creator in healing and transformation, which is why we've created a space where you can connect with nature and your own inner wisdom.
From the covered deck, comfy loungers by the pond, many different seating and meditation areas, to the fields and horse areas, It's a place where you can come to let go of the noise of the world, connect with nature, and find your center.
The name "Believe & See Ranch" reflects our deeply held beliefs about the power of intention and it extends an invitation to you as our guest, to allow yourself to believe that what you seek is also seeking you.
A living metaphor for transformation
The energy of the land, combined with our equine partners,
creates a one-of-a-kind opportunity for deep connection,
personal growth, and a sense of serenity.

Imagine the feeling of liberation and empowerment that comes with this process. Not only does it offer a cathartic release, but it also plays a pivotal role in crafting a financially prosperous business that aligns your creative and spiritual self with your professional identity. By infusing your business with your authentic essence, you create a lasting legacy

I came away with shedding a false identity and a renewed sense of trust and boldness which has already translated into generating more income in my business.

Captured Memories
Our on-site photographer will be present to capture your memories. but they will be discreet and not interfere with your experience.
You of course are welcome and encouraged to take as many of your own photos as you wish - but when interacting with the horses themselves, guests are not permitted to bring electronics for safety reasons. By having our photographer there - you can immerse yourself in the experience and know that the best moments will be captured.
This complimentary service ensures you have beautiful, professionally taken photographs to remember and share, complementing your personal snapshots
We pride ourselves on supporting local caterers and restaurants, bringing you an array of fresh, seasonal, and locally-sourced delights that not only tantalize your taste buds but also contribute to the local community.
Just imagine the fresh taste of farm to table produce, or the heavenly melt in your mouth artisanal cheese made by a local family cheese maker from their own grass fed Jersey cows.
We will be honoring the diverse culinary influences in Vancouver. Expect a delightful array of dishes, including seafood, Asian-inspired flavors, hearty salads, plant based options, and a selection of savory appetizers, nutritious snacks, and grazing boards.
For those with a sweet tooth, you will absolutely love the local favorite, the Nanaimo bar, a local dessert that's a delightful blend of chocolate, coconut, and custard.
And if you have any specific dietary concerns, rest assured, we will accommodate them.
Delicious West Coast Inspired Food
3 & 1/2 days of Discovery And Growth
Your retreat Roadmap
Day 1 - Begin your journey at Believe & See Ranch with a relaxing evening of connection and intention-setting, from 4 to 7 pm.
Immerse yourself in the tranquility of our ranch and forge meaningful bonds with fellow participants while enjoying delicious appetizers and refreshments.
We will also be covering safety, any physical limitations you may have, as well as a tour of the Ranch. This evening is more than an introduction; it's the foundation for your transformative experience.
Day 2 to 4 is where you'll dive deep into the heart of our retreat experience. The daily pick up & drop off times for will be sent to you as we get closer to the date.
Breakfast, lunch, snacks and refreshments will be provided daily.
You will have half an hour to enjoy the ranch, and breakfast each morning, diving into each day's activities, and a half hour at the conclusion of the day before your car picks you up.
Each day unfolds with a blend of serene self-reflection and dynamic horse-led activities.
While there is an overall structure, we work with the feedback the horses give us, allowing for fluid and responsive learning experiences, meaning there is no strict schedule within the day. It's a welcome change of pace!
Our last day together is an extended day.
Conclude your journey with a light dinner and a heartfelt closing ceremony.
Share reflections, celebrate growth, and solidify the bonds formed over these transformative days.
After we set intentions for what comes next, we'll share a heartfelt goodbye.
Your car will pick you up at 7:00 pm to return to your hotel
A beautiful fire is a great way to conclude our time together. However this part of the ceremony is subject to any municipal or provincial burn bans that may be in effect, and so we cannot guarantee that we will have a fire
On Days 2 & 3 we conclude at approximately 4 pm. Remembering we are on "Horse Time" we may go past this end time if the horses decide we need to. However you will still have half an hour after concluding to enjoy the serenity of the Ranch before your ride picks you up.
You will still be dropped off early enough to explore local dining options, or enjoy the company of your new friends, or simply just go back to your room and journal and unwind.
How you spend these 2 activity free nights, is up to you. However we do recommend an early night (especially on Day 2 as we have an extra early start on Day 3) and a good nights sleep so that you are refreshed and ready for the day's activities.
Throughout the retreat, you'll find a harmonious blend of serenity and interaction. Moments of personal reflection intertwine with group activities, coaching sessions, and creative expressions.
The retreat's pace is intentionally unhurried, allowing you to fully engage with each experience and absorb every insight.

"I've worked with Nafissa for business strategy for years and she's helped me through some really tough personal patches that could have taken my business down, brought me clarity on mindset blocks, and so much more.
What had always seemed to escape me, though, was my big purpose... After the first day of our time at the ranch, I woke up at 4 am and I had it! .
I wrote 4 pages in my journal that morning, and I reread them regularly.
They keep me pointed in the right direction whenever I have big decisions and they get me going when I'm not feeling it that day.
The retreat was priceless, and I can't wait to go back"

You're eager to elevate your leadership and energetic communication skills and fully embrace your true power.
You appreciate the healing power of nature for connecting with your higher self but also value modern comforts.
You value experiential learning and growth, especially experiences that challenge and expand your perspective, requiring you to embrace discomfort and listen to its messages
.
You're open to being vulnerable with other women and are ready to receive powerful, life-transforming feedback from our horses to foster your growth.
Whether you're a seasoned horsewoman or a curious admirer or anything in between, you are drawn to the healing magic of horses.
You do not see your profession as a deeply personal expression of you, and would are looking for traditional business training focused solely on mechanics and milestones
Delving into your inner landscape and developing your leadership style isn't a priority for you right now.
You're not fond of being outdoors in nature for learning experiences. and prefer highly structured environments.
You're looking for quick fixes and "how to" blueprints, rather than embarking on a journey of profound personal growth that challenges you to grow.
You are not open to exploring vulnerability, asking for help, receiving unbiased feedback, and surrendering to experiential learning and sharing.
You don’t like horses at all – you don’t have to love them, you can even be a little afraid of them, but if you have no desire to be around them, this retreat is not for you
Is this retreat for you?
It absolutely is if:

Do you have any Questions?
I've got answers!
All activities with horses will be on the ground, no riding. The horses will be either haltered or at liberty (free roaming) in the arena, paddocks, and pasture. This is an incredible and life changing way to experience horses and connect with them on a whole different level, as your guide and muse, instead of a ride.
Horse experience is not needed in order for you to experience their healing and transformation. They are here to be your guides, sages and healers.
All activities are supervised by myself or another equine professional, and can be modified to suit your comfort level with proximity. It is up to you how much or little you’d like to engage with the horses. Also it's a good inner reflection to ask what this fear of horses is representing for you and how it's showing up in your life.
Safety is our #1 priority. For both horses and humans.
During our welcome reception you will participate in an in-depth safety briefing, and our facilitators are there to keep a close eye on everything. We know our horses very well, and have spent thousands of hours training them, we will never put you in a situation that we feel is unsafe. We also do not allow any unsafe behaviour from our guests.
Please remember that you are always in control of your own experience. If at any time you feel uncomfortable, please speak up! All exercises can be modified to suit your comfort level.
That's wonderful to hear! Your experience as a rider can add a rich dimension to your retreat experience.
As an equestrian, you already have a special connection with horses, and this retreat offers a unique opportunity to deepen that connection in a transformative way.
This fresh perspective can profoundly impact how you relate to horses and yourself. The retreat is designed for self-reflection and mindfulness, facilitated by the intuitive presence of horses. This experience can be especially poignant as it taps into and expands the unique bond you already share with these animals.
This retreat offers a chance to experience horses beyond riding. It's an opportunity to see how equine wisdom can influence all aspects of your life including your profession!.
As an equestrian, you'll find that engaging with horses in this context can be an eye-opening and heart-expanding journey, offering a different kind of fulfillment and learning that complements your existing equine experiences.
All of our exercises with the horses can be adapted to accommodate physical limitations.
This can mean that some activities may require the horse to be haltered and held by a facilitator and not able to roam free, or if necessary it may mean the exercise is done over the fence. Please be aware that if this is the decision of the facilitators it will be final. It is not meant to take away from your experience, but rather to ensure it's safe and enjoyable for everyone.
The Heart Math Institute has shown that the horse's heart energy field extends at least 50 feet beyond their body. The fence, or halter and lead rope, in this case is simply a physical barrier to keep you safe, energetically the horse is unaffected, and your experience will still be profound and transformational
Absolutely. What you learn and experience during an equine retreat will support, enhance and enrich any other work you are already doing. An Equine Experience is a MUST for anyone already doing their inner work.
As the Ranch is also my private home, we do not publish our address for safety reasons. If you stay at our recommended hotel you won't have to worry at all, as we arrange daily transport for you. If you choose to stay elsewhere, our Client Concierge team will reach out to you closer to the date of your retreat to ensure you have the correct address and directions
Suggested Airports:
Vancouver International Airport is approximately 60 minutes Southwest of our suggested hotel.
Abbottsford International Airport is approximately 30 minutes Southeast of our suggested hotel
If you wish to fly into Washington State, USA and drive up (come through the SUMAS border crossing), we're approximately 3 hours from Sea-Tac airport and 1 hour from the Bellingham Airport (border wait times not included) .
Suggested Hotel:
As Believe and See Ranch is in a rural suburb of Vancouver, hotel options are limited. And as this is a small retreat we are not able to secure a room block or special pricing. We recommend the Sandman SIGNATURE Hotel in Langley. at 8828 201 Street in Langley BC. They have reasonable rates and a flexible cancellation policy. This is also our designated pick up point for the daily shuttle to the ranch.
Please note this is NOT the same as the Sandman Langley Hotel. Please make sure to book the correct hotel using the address & link provided in your welcome pack
You can stay wherever you choose of course, however, please note you will be responsible for your own transportation to and from the Ranch
If you would like to be matched with a roommate, please let us know, and we’ll do our best to pair you with someone else who is also seeking a roommate. You will also be able to mingle in the Facebook Group or Voxer and find one. However we finding the roommate is entirely your responsibility, and cannot be guaranteed if the other participants do not wish to share a room.
Open toe, high heeled or summer shoes/sandals of any kind will not be permitted. Safe, closed-toe shoes are a must around horses. The ground can sometimes be uneven, and/or present obstacles so please make sure to wear supportive footwear, that you don't mind getting dirty.
Boots or running shoes are fine.
Even though it will be summer time, as Vancouver weather can be unpredictable, please make sure to pack some light rain gear. Please also make sure to pack a hat to protect yourself from the sun if necessary.
Due to the intimate nature of these workshops and to ensure each participant has proper time and attention, as well as for the safety of both humans and horses, spaces are very limited. This is how I am able to ensure the best experience possible. As such, once you commit to yourself and request a spot, we commit that spot to you- it's no longer available to anyone else.
For that reason no cash refunds are offered once payment is received.
If due to completely unforeseen and uncontrollable circumstances - such as a medical emergency, you cannot attend, please let us know and we'll happily work with you to apply your investment to a future workshop, or program, or if you wish you may transfer it to someone who would like your seat that is not already registered.

As an entrepreneur, business leader, and coach, over the last 30 years, I've built and grown -multiple successful companies and businesses.
There comes a time and season in our lives where while the money is great - we yearn for something more, and for many of us, that "more" comes in the form of making a difference through our work, and our calling.
I'm certainly no stranger to bringing together our avocations with our vocation!
Attending an equine partnered retreat about 7 years ago, was a huge catalyst in finding my own clarity and courage to bring together my love of personal development and business growth with my passion for horses, and to achieve my certification in education in Equine Facilitated Leadership, and buying the Ranch.
I lead women leaders on a journey of self-discovery and growth through online coaching, workshops, and retreats. My approach blends business strategy with the transformative power of horses and nature, aligning inner desires with external success for a prosperous, fulfilling life
I've I designed this retreat "The Power of The Prosperous Woman" for women entrepreneurs and leaders such as you who are also feeling the call that "It's time" for YOUR more.
I'm Nafissa Shireen, your host for this powerful retreat
Hi There!
I'm deeply passionate about gentle horsemanship, and bringing awareness to the value horses bring as sentient beings that goes beyond riding or perceived "usefulness". As much as I love to ride, my dream is also to normalize NOT riding, for those horses who simply cannot be ridden, and still deserve a home and long life of love. We've provided a home to several "unrideable" and senior horses over the years to live out their best days, and will continue to prioritize space for them in our barn. A portion of all event proceeds is donated to J&M Horse Rescue in honor of our own rescue Adira.
Yes! You understand my journey! sign me up!
