Retreat With God 101: How to Retreat, Rest and Reset

Shimona Kizito Episode 23

In today’s episode, we’re breaking down exactly how to retreat with God — practically, intentionally, and biblically. If you’ve ever wondered what a retreat is, how to do one, or why it even matters, this episode is your guide.


Retreats have become my secret weapon as a mom of 4, a wife, and a woman walking out purpose. They’ve helped me rest mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and physically — and realign with God’s voice when life gets loud.


In this episode, we talk about:

• What a spiritual retreat actually is

• How to retreat with God in a practical, doable way

• The importance of rest, stillness, and intentionality

• How Jesus Himself retreated (Luke 5:16)

• How retreats help you hear God clearly, get strategy, and reset

• Why you don’t need a hotel or money — just intentional time with God

• How to build retreats into your yearly rhythm

• How to reconnect with God when you feel dry, busy, or overwhelmed


Whether you’re burnt out, discouraged, or just longing for clarity, this episode will help you learn how to pull away with God, reset your soul, and realign your life.
