Take control of your life

We’re here to help you thrive

We’re Courtenay and Owen Burkholder—founders of Refined to Rise. We help men, women, and couples break free from what’s holding them back so they can rise into healing, identity, and purpose with Jesus at the center.

Through powerful coaching, soul-deep retreats, and biblically grounded tools, we create space for transformation. Whether you’re rebuilding after loss, navigating a new season, or longing for deeper alignment with God, our mission is to help you live boldly, love deeply, and build what lasts.
