In this episode the Ski Moms welcome Charlotte Lilley, founder of The Ski Retreat, about creating transformative ski experiences that bring women together for adventure, connection and confidence on the slopes.

Charlotte shares how she turned her lifelong passion for skiing into a mission to empower women, designing curated 3-4 day retreats that combine skiing with yoga, art, inspiring speakers, chef-prepared meals and meaningful connection. From her early days learning to ski at age three in Tahoe to launching The Ski Retreat while working in tech, Charlotte discusses her journey as a female entrepreneur in the ski industry. She explains how The Ski Retreat creates a supportive environment for women of all ability levels to challenge themselves on the mountain while forming lasting friendships. 

The conversation covers everything from retreat logistics and destinations to après ski culture and the importance of offering both alcoholic and non-alcoholic options. Charlotte's passion for fostering authentic connection between women while helping them push their comfort zones on the slopes shines through as she shares her vision for growing The Ski Retreat's impact.
