You've been lifting alone long enough. SuperNova Live 2026 is for
the woman who's ready to pull every lever she has.
September 18-19, 2026
The Club at Rolling Hills, Golden, CO
*Early Bird July 13-17*
Most rooms still make you choose — strategy or soul, ambition or authenticity, the work or the life. You’ve been shapeshifting depending on which room you’re in, and you’re done with it.
The theme of this weekend is Leveraged. Not leveraged like debt. Leveraged like a woman who has every resource available to her fully activated — her strategic edge, her community, her blueprint, her relationship with spirit. All four levers engaged at once.
When that happens, you don’t strain. You rise. That’s the whole premise.
I walked into a traditional networking event the night before my first Nova event and the anxiety hit me like a wall. But in the Nova, there’s none of that. You just show up as yourself and the connections happen naturally.
Stacy Musgrave, Business Coach
I honestly don’t know that I could have launched my business in this beautifully iterative fashion without my connections at the Nova. The community was a testing ground, a launch pad, and a place where people just kept showing up for me.
Rachel Loewenherz, Star Path Founder
The Nova encapsulates my whole person and all the different parts of myself, which allows me to show up fully. I don’t have to put on a mask or show up as someone specific.
Erin Clifford, Financial Advisor
I knew I needed a community that could help me step into a new level of authenticity and success — a place where I could truly be seen, even in my most vulnerable moments.
Carrie Montgomery, Neurosomatic Leadership Coach
SuperNova Live is for the woman...
who values depth and wants to be in conversations that actually match how she moves through the world.
ready for continuity – where the same people show up and relationships actually deepen over time.
who wants proximity with peers, where she doesn’t have to translate, edit, or shrink herself
and is done running on depletion — and ready to lead from a place where every resource she has is actually working.
WHAT IT IS, AND ISN’T
A few things to know.
This isn’t a conference. It’s a weekend at the Club where the whole of you gets to show up — the woman building things and the woman becoming things, in the same room, all weekend long.
This is not a room where you lift anything alone. Every session, every table, every conversation is designed to show you exactly which levers you have and what becomes possible when you pull them.
If SuperNova Retreat called you and the timing didn’t work, this is your yes that fits.
If you’ve never been in a Nova room, this is the most concentrated version of what Nova actually is.
Why the foothills?
The Club at Rolling Hills sits in the Colorado foothills just outside Golden. It has floor-to-ceiling windows, an outdoor space that means we can take sessions outside when the weather allows, a kitchen that feeds you well, and round tables, not rows because this is a non-heirarchial experience.
Hotel ballrooms produce hotel-ballroom conversations. The foothills produce something else.
Golden itself softens you on arrival — small mountain town, trails out the back door, Clear Creek through downtown, twenty-five minutes from Denver International. Easy in. Hard to leave.
What you actually walk out with.
By Saturday afternoon, here’s what’s different:
- Clarity on the next move. What you've been turning over for months gets clear, with women in the room who can pressure-test it in real time.
- A phone full of women operating at your level. Real relationships with women you'll text on a Tuesday because something happened and they're the ones who'd actually understand.
- A nervous system that remembered itself. A weekend held by people who know what they're doing means you leave more regulated than you arrived.
- The language for the most expanded version of what you actually want. A lot of women come in carrying a desire they've never said out loud. They leave saying it cleanly.
- A map of your four levers. Which ones are fully activated, which have been sitting idle, and exactly what changes when you stop leaving them on the table.
“I came to Nova looking for a way to find clients, but what I actually found was something so much bigger. The peer support, the deep personal development, the kind of community that stretches and expands you — this is what I didn’t know I needed.”
The Flow
Here's what we'll be co-creating together
The Arc of the Experience:
Friday, Sept 18 | 9 AM – 5 PM — Full Live Day and lunch
Saturday, Sept 19 | 9 AM – 3 PM — Full Day Live
VIP Dinner Saturday, Sept 19th | 6-9 pm
VIP Access = The Long Table & The JoySet | Saturday Evening (20 seats)
→ Twenty seats. An intimate dinner with Melissa and special guests — the kind of table where the real conversations happen and the connections that matter most get made. This is the most exclusive experience of the weekend.
The night closes with a silent disco curated by Leigh Orne of The JoySet — headphones on, lights down, the kind of dance floor where you don't have to think about who's watching. A perfect way to end your SuperNova Experience.
The Great Room | Friday
→ A full day built for depth, not performance. Round tables all day — you're in real conversation, not watching a presentation. Every session is followed by structured table time so ideas land in the room, not just in your head.
Mornings begin outside: breathwork, sound healing, or a guided hike on the trails right at the Club. Long lunch at the Club is built for the conversation, not the clock. Friday evening is yours — wherever the day's connections have taken you.
The Soul Strategy Block | Saturday
→ Saturday goes deep in small peer clusters — four to six women working through what you've been turning over for months, with people who can actually pressure-test it in real time. This is where the biggest clarity of the weekend happens.
Lunch together at the Club. The afternoon closes with Nova's signature SuperNova Rising ceremony — you leave by 3 PM with concrete next steps and a phone full of women you'll stay in real contact with.
SuperNova Rising | Saturday Closing
→ Nova's signature closing ceremony. Some things are better experienced than described. You'll leave by 3 PM with concrete next steps and a phone full of women you'll be in touch with for years.
"The retreat was the first time I reclaimed the part of myself that had kept me small for a lifetime. To be able to share that, to be witnessed in it, and to be fully supported through that reclamation has fundamentally changed me."
Veronica Henriques, Midlife Unleashed
This is not a conference. Here's what that actually means.
No theater seating. No rows. Every session runs at round tables so the conversation is always in the room, not just on a stage. Facilitated content is designed so you talk as much as you listen. Mornings begin outside. Meals are built for connection, not just fuel. The agenda has shape but not a stranglehold — if a conversation needs to keep going, it keeps going.
Most events leave you inspired but alone.
This one leaves you leveraged.

I still pinch myself that I found you and The Nova. I mean this from my heart—I’ve literally got my hand on my heart as I say it—you’ve changed my life. I had lost my spark and my confidence, and being in a room of women where I could truly be myself brought me back to life. I feel on fire again. I feel confident again.

The Eddy Hotel
Modern, outdoorsy, and grounded in Golden’s easy glow. The Eddy Taproom & Hotel is your boutique basecamp at the foothills—guest-only rooftops with firepits and mountain views, cozy rooms that reset your nervous system, and a lively Taproom downstairs pouring craft cocktails and local drafts. The sweet spot between trail days and warm, connected evenings. Adventure and ease, all in one place.
The Golden Hotel
Creekside, classic, and right in the heart of Golden. The Golden Hotel sits along Clear Creek with foothill views and an easy stroll to shops, trails, and the river path. Rooms are warm and well-appointed—think plush robes, mini-fridge, and in-room coffee—and Bridgewater Grill’s creekside patio is perfect for slow mornings or golden-hour dinners. Ideal if you want grounded rest with effortless access to downtown
Denver Marriott West
Denver Marriott West is an easy base in the Denver West corridor—quick access to I-70, downtown Golden, and a short drive to Red Rocks when you’re craving a show under the stars. Two pools (indoor and outdoor), a solid fitness center, and Copper Creek for casual drinks and dinner make it easy to relax between adventures

SuperNova Live begins Friday, September 18 at 9 AM and wraps by 3 PM on Saturday, September 19. Plan to arrive Thursday evening if you’re joining us for the VIP Dinner. We recommend arriving Wednesday night if you want a slow, easy start to your weekend.
SuperNova Live is open to Nova members and Nova-curious women who feel aligned with what this room is about. Members receive first access and member pricing. If you’re not yet a member and this weekend is calling to you, you’re in the right place — grab your ticket and we’ll see you in September.
Fully interactive. Round tables, not rows — every session is designed so you’re in conversation, not just in an audience. Facilitated content blocks are followed by structured table time, peer cluster work, and intentional connection throughout. This is not a conference with better vibes. It’s a room built from the ground up for depth and real connection.
No, but we’ve curated three beautiful options—each with its own vibe. We recommend The Golden Hotel, The Eddy Hotel or The Marriott West.
You might not yet—but you’ll leave with women who feel like lifelong collaborators. We will also do a pre-retreat call for people to get to know one another and make intentional introductions so you never feel alone.
Also if you register with a friend with the “bring a friend” bonus – you’ll each get $100 off your ticket!
Layers for shifting weather, comfortable shoes, your journal, and anything else that helps you feel like your full, grounded self. We’ll send a full packing list closer to the event.
You can get a rental car but it’s super easy to arrange transportation with a buddy or Uber/Lyft
Yes. Spaciousness is part of the design—and you’ll always have the option to step back, take a breath, or opt out of any session if your body says you need it.
