The Experience:
Mindful Actions: You’ll learn how to develop actionable daily routines tailored to wellness and success, with a specific focus on what’s easily doable and within your control.
Inner Alchemy: Learn how to access a flow state at work; let go of external “scores” or benchmarks and reorient towards a deep sense of trust in your own unfolding journey. That’s where real freedom—and progress—begin.


Embodied Presence: Learn the subtle but potent ways of living in the organic flow of your being at work and at home so that work shifts from stress to joy and purpose.
Circles of Wisdom: Engage with seasoned peers in an atmosphere of safety and openness, where you draw from the collective wisdom.

“Connecting with others in such an authentic and deep way during this retreat has had, and will continue to have, a very positive impact on how I relate to my clients and to my team. Numbers matter in what we do, but a caring, engaged presence matters so much more.”
– MAUREEN
Activities to Transform Your Approach
to Work, and Life:
Emotional Intelligence Training: Deepen your capacity to experience empathy, compassion, and attunement to others through evidence-based communication exercises.
Dialogue Circles: Dive into topics that will challenge and inspire you. Share, listen, and reveal what’s blocking or nurturing your fullest expression.


Meditation: Immerse yourself in short practices and experiential activities that allow you to shift into a deeply restful state through the activation of your parasympathetic nervous system. This relaxed and alert state fosters rejuvenation, vitality, and clarity.
Nature Hikes: Experience nature as the backdrop for heart-centered business and life conversations.
Silent Beach Walk: A concluding walk that is an invitation to integrate and embody what you’ve learned.

“I came to the retreat not knowing what to expect and left feeling fully renewed. It felt like an important reset for me, returning to a place I love but hadn’t been to for a long time... to a former, more spacious self.”
– JANE
