Welcome to The Layered Life
A retreat for interior designers ready to slow down, realign, and build a business — and life — with intention.
The Layered Life is a thoughtfully curated retreat created by interior designers Kate Maloney and Rachel Reider, designed for creatives who want more than just inspiration — they want clarity, connection, and sustainable growth.
Taking place in Newport, Rhode Island April 7th - 9th 2026, this immersive experience blends business strategy, creative exploration, and personal reflection. It’s about peeling back the noise, refining what matters most, and building a layered approach to work and life that feels aligned, grounded, and intentional.
Over the course of the retreat, you’ll step away from the day-to-day to reconnect with your vision, your process, and a community of like-minded designers who value depth over hustle and quality over quantity.
This is not a conference.
This is not a quick reset.
This is space — to think, to create, and to move forward with purpose.
