``We were craving an intimate retreat that focused on tangible learning that could be implemented right away. We wanted a setting where you can sit across from a successful Boutique Franchise owner, a Lifestyle Blogger who owns an Influencer Network and skillfully pitches brands, and a Social Media Marketing expert; and talk shop while getting all of your burning questions answered. So in true Milspouse spirit...we created it.``
