Retreat Summary
“You know what’s nice about being in your 60s? You get to write your own love story.”
— Peg Munson
Mel and Peg found each other on national television, in their 60s, proving that love doesn’t have an expiration date. Now they’re bringing their story — and their hard-won wisdom — to you.
This intimate four-day retreat is for those who believe their best chapter is still ahead. Whether you’ve found love, lost it, or are searching for it, this weekend is your invitation to reconnect — with yourself, with others, and with the possibility of what comes next.
Together, Mel and Peg will lead honest, warm, and deeply personal conversations about navigating change, building resilient relationships, and finding joy in the second half of life. Expect laughter, some tears, morning workouts, afternoon spa time, and the kind of conversations that change you.
This retreat is for you if
You’re navigating change
Life transitions — retirement, loss, reinvention — have left you wondering what’s next. You’re ready to look forward.
You desire to find the joy in life again
Learning to have fun at any age and finding a group of people ready to do the same!
You crave real connection
You’re tired of surface-level. You want honest conversations with people who get what midlife looks and feels like.
You need hope
Watching Mel and Peg’s love story reminded you that it’s never too late. You want to feel that possibility in your own life.
You’re ready to invest in yourself
You know that wellbeing — body, mind, and heart — doesn’t happen by accident. You’re ready to put yourself first.
You want to go home different
Not just refreshed, but shifted. Leave Las Vegas with new clarity, new friends, and a new sense of what’s possible.
Meet Mel & Peg
They didn’t plan on finding love on national TV. But then again, the best things rarely go according to plan. Mel and Peg have become symbols of something the world needs more of: the courage to be vulnerable, to love boldly, and to keep believing — at any age.
Peg Munson
RETIRED FIREFIGHTER & BOMB TECHNICIAN · LAS VEGAS, NV
Peg spent her career running toward danger so others could run to safety. After 30+ years as a firefighter and bomb technician, she brought that same fearless energy to the Bachelor mansion — and straight into Mel’s heart. A Las Vegas native with irresistible spirit and contagious joy, Peg believes in showing up fully, loving loudly, and never letting age dim your light.
“He doesn’t have integrity. He is integrity.”
Mel Owens
FORMER NFL LINEBACKER · ATTORNEY · LAGUNA HILLS, CA
Mel Owens played linebacker for the Los Angeles Rams before building a distinguished legal career. At 66, he went on national television searching for a partner — and found Peg. Thoughtful, intentional, and deeply principled, Mel models what it looks like to lead with your heart without losing your head.
“I saw our love grow all the way through — it’s special when it’s the right person.”
What we’ll explore together
Each day, Mel and Peg will guide intimate group conversations on the themes that matter most in midlife — drawing on their own love story, their life experience, and your questions.
