In the magnificent fierce morning of New Mexico one sprang awake, a new part of the soul woke up suddenly, and the old world gave way to the new.” -D.H.Lawrence

The Transformational Speaking Immersion is offered in a beautiful, natural setting in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Here the legendary high desert landscape allows you to feel the ancient spirit of the Pueblo peoples. You can easily wonder why suddenly your dreams are so rich and alive, informing the new worlds and the new story you have come here to explore.

Santa Fe. Santa Fe is a magical city that consistently ranks in travel surveys as one of the top ten destinations anywhere. Surrounded by scenic beauty and imbued with 400 years of history, its unique character is revealed in its lovingly preserved architecture, world-class art and cuisine, and cultural traditions. We’re at the south end of the Rockies where the sun rises over the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and graces us with golden light and indigo skies and 300 days of sunshine each year. Every season has something glorious to offer – and we do have four distinct seasons! Learn more about Santa Fe.

Our Program Home is a private lodge on the expansive grounds of Bishop’s Lodge Ranch Resort and Spa. This historic property, ranked by Travel & Leisure as “one of America’s best retreats,” borders on the Santa Fe National Forest and has hiking trails, stables and a world-class spa.  Come early or stay over to enjoy all it has to offer!

Accommodations. Bishop’s Lodge has extended a rate of $99/night from November through April and $139 from May through October for Real Speaking clients.  Once your program is confirmed, we will give you a private contact to call to book your room. We ask you to stay on site at Bishop’s Lodge as the program extends into the evenings and there are no other accommodation options within walking distance.

Our program “home” at Bishop’s Lodge in Santa Fe, New Mexico, known as “The Land of Enchantment” for good reason!

Travel Planning

Getting to Santa Fe by Air. While Santa Fe has a small regional airport, most people fly into Albuquerque NM  and drive north 60 miles to Santa Fe by rental car or shuttle. Make your airline reservation to arrive in Albuquerque (ABQ) no later than noon on the opening day and leave anytime on the day following your program.  That extra night to integrate the work makes all the difference!

Shuttles to Bishop’s Lodge.  From Albuquerque, take the Sandia Shuttle.   The last drop off is at Bishop’s Lodge, so with stops at other hotels, the shuttle can take two+ hours. Please make an advance reservation as shuttles often book to capacity. When you arrive at baggage claim in Albuquerque, check in at the transportation desk.

The Roadrunner Shuttle serves the Santa Fe Airport and meets every flight to take passengers to their hotels, including Bishop’s Lodge.
