Step away from the noise, embrace the quiet, and hear what silence might say to you.
What happens when identical twin extroverts choose to spend days in silence?
Surprises, transformation, and far more curious questions from friends than they ever expected.
In this guided journal, the authors share how silent retreats have reshaped their lives through rest, reflection, and prayer. Though rooted in their experiences with religious retreats, these pages are designed for anyone exploring a guided or self-guided silent retreat.
With honest stories, gentle humor, and space for the reader’s own reflections, you’ll discover:
How silence can renew your spirit (even if you love to talk)
Ways quiet helps you connect more deeply with God, nature, and yourself
Prompts to help you weave silence into your daily routine
Whether for thirty minutes or three days, silence has something to teach us all. Step away from the noise, embrace the quiet, and see what silence might say to you.

“This Book makes the idea of a silent retreat feel, not only possible, but like a gift my soul has been longing for.”

About
Kellie Bray &
Kristie Bray Larson
Twin sisters Kellie Bray and Kristie Bray Larson thrive on conversation and connection, finding energy in time spent with friends old and new. Raised together in rural Missouri, but now living halfway across the country from each other, they follow their shared curiosity into all kinds of projects– from renovating a farmhouse, facilitating leadership programs, and, now, writing a book.
The project that gives them the most to talk about, however, is the one that started in silence.

The Conversation You’ve Been Having With Yourself
“A friend once told us that listening to the two of us talk is like listening to your conscience out loud.”
At first, we laughed. Then we realized why people kept leaning in.
When Kristie and Kellie speak together, something different happens. Conversations slow down. People hear themselves more clearly.
And the questions they’ve been avoiding finally get airtime, often with a little laughter and the relief of realizing you’re not the only one thinking these things.
Why That Matters
As identical twins, we don’t just share a voice, we share a rhythm. We think out loud. We finish each other’s thoughts. We name what others are feeling but haven’t put words to yet, the half-formed thoughts, the quiet questions, the things people don’t usually say into a microphone.
That’s why audiences often say they don’t just listen, they recognize themselves.
Our talks don’t motivate through pressure or performance. They create clarity without urgency. They invite honesty without heaviness. They leave people feeling grounded, seen, and quietly changed.
What Audiences Experience
When Kristie and Kellie take the stage, audiences experience:
Insight that feels personal, not preached
Reflection that feels spacious, not overwhelming
Humor that loosens shoulders and lowers guards
Conversations that keep unfolding long after the room empties
Because sometimes the most powerful thing a speaker can do is say the thing everyone else is thinking. Ultimately, making it feel safe to smile, nod, and breathe a little deeper while hearing it.
Who This Is For
Kristie and Kellie are a strong fit for audiences who are:
navigating full lives and meaningful questions
leading, caregiving, building, or carrying responsibility
thoughtful, high-achieving, and quietly reflective
drawn to environments that feel welcoming, human, and inspiring
If your audience values insight, warmth, and honest conversation over hype, they’ll feel at home here.
Let’s Work Together
If you’re looking for speakers who don’t just deliver a message, but create a space people genuinely enjoy being in, we’d love to work with you!
