They focused on the retreat delivery, working tirelessly on ALL the details.

But leave the marketing as an afterthought.

When they launch the retreat, they rarely have a framework for targeting their audience enough to focus in and pinpoint exactly who needs the retreat and Why they do.

They’re focused on the goody bags ( contents are usually found in the bin at the end of the retreat!)

They’re obsessing about the itinerary.

What they need is a clear framework that actively EXCLUDES the wrong people!

Bet you haven’t heard that before!

Because your retreat becomes celebrated when the people there are enjoying what’s on offer!

Reading this content already puts you ahead of most leaders and if you’d like to know more:

I’m opening my Retreat Leaders collective this Autumn called The CIRCLE

I couldn’t find the tribe of female leaders who gathered to share their secrets about the retreat world so I’ve built it myself.

I’m inviting a small number of woman, places are capped because I want us to share REAL conversations and deliver useful workshops about all things retreating.

To jump in and claim a space DM the word CIRCLE

Am so excited for this as I’ve made the cost accessible to the few.

Think of how you’d shortcut your time and energy by being ahead on your retreats next year with the trainings and talks we share about our experiences?

DM me CIRCLE- I’m looking for my first 20 leaders before the cost rises!

None booked a space on your retreat because of the schedule!

Instead they immediately knew in the language you chose, you were a ‘safe pair of hands’ or that you understood what they needed before they did.

Because EVERYTHING about retreating is relational.

If you’re someone who understands the emotional route to how someone buys a space from you, I’ve got you covered.

Enjoy the rest of the summer- because we’re launching some exciting offers including The Circle Retreat Collective this September!

If you want to update your messaging, frameworks and selling for the highly discerning retreat market, you’ll love this container as a short cut to upscalling your retreats at last.

I’m inviting our inner circle to join and have only a few spaces for other ambitious retreat leaders to jump in.

Let’s create fabulous retreats together!

The BIG blunt truth about selling out your retreats. ( For those who can hear it!)

Your clients need your wisdom, support and compassion.

Stop being a.
Retreat Martyr trying to give them the best retreat - you’ll end up gifting them STRESS!

You’ll give space for joy -the more you let go of worry.

Let go of controlling everyone
Quiet confidence speaks volumes.

People will complain about anything and everything when they feel an energetic chokehold.

Instead- Holding space for others is an art form you need to learn.

Your need to create the
“Perfect Retreat” is quietly killing the vibe.

From 20 years of watching thousands of leaders lose their s**t inside our 2 venues because they’re in fight or flight-tears and overloaded with pressure,

I want to reassure you there’s a softer way to run your retreats fully supported and encouraged to create profit!

Your own nervous system regulation is the’North Star 1 of your retreat. (NOT the goody bags!)

The more resourced you feel the more your energetics will flow around the retreat.

The essential framework you’ve missed is a mentor or coach who acts like a discerning self-care system that supports you.

Creating a strong foundation of compassionate holding is the priority for! you and your retreatees.

Have a team who can handle the obiechions-

Allow yourself to focus on yourself and the facilitation of your group.

imperfect spaces too!

We all feel safer around others who are at peace from, critical thinking.
You deserve to be given the love you offer!

I have exciting news incoming!

Can’t wait to let the cat out of the bag about an offering: I know you’d love it- if by Christmas, you were in complete control of your flow of inquiries and sales, simply by changing the WAY you talk about your retreats.

They believe they can do it all alone.

Here’s why?

They believe they can Wing it!

But

‘Winging it’ is not a recognised strategy to create meaningful profit!

I’ve watched this summer (and 19 others before this) talented retreat hosts leave between 2-10k on the table during their retreats!

Why?

Because they begin by thinking they’re perfectly capable of embarking on offering their retreat
.without support!!

When the client objections start to flow, and they’re running out of time to sell the retreat because they lack a legitimate sales system.

Or when the chef asks question they’re unsure of how to answer.❓❓❓

They pull in their BF or PA or Mum to help to soothe their nervous system but can lose money- where the spaces are taken up by them.

Absolutely no successful entrepreneur, leader, or business owner ever starts an enterprise solo.

They enlist a coach or mentor.

But most business coaches are clueless as to the nuanced approach of selling a retreat.

So the style doesn’t resonate with retreatees.

It’s the reason I retrained as a mindset and business coach 6 years ago- to help specifically, retreat hosts.

I’m here on retreat at our second venue with a wonderful friend who jumped into a few years ago- and is currently ACEING her multiple retreats in the UK and abroad in her particular niche.

She’s profiting considerably from each retreat and fulfilling her dreams of travelling and living a freedom based life with her family!

(I’ll introduce you to her another time)

Just checking in that you prioritised making a profit on your retreat.

Because I’ve seen so many folk through our venue this year who are leaving 2-5k on the table from not choosing the RIGHT kind of support before, during and after their retreat!

They start off thinking they need to do it all themselves, then hit client objections and get into overwhelm and pull into their retreat there BF, PA or even Mum - offering them free spaces to help soothe their frazzled nervous system.

Every successful business owner knows investing in the RIGHT support catapults your fledgling business into profit and even overflow!

Why this is the perfect time to get your retreats in front of your retreatees.

I can’t remember a better time for you to showcase why you’re a star in your field.

People are craving reality in a world of fakery.

Your story matters.

Not your whole life story ( although that matters to your nearest and dearest đŸ€)

But we need to see relatability, failure, and how you’ve navigated the losses in order to feel the wins.

This shows your audience your authenticity and why you’re the person in your field to lead them through a transformative retreat and share your skills and wisdom.

It also helps them to discover who you are and why they feel like buying a space on your retreat.

In order to lead we have to SHOW our personality.

How we’ve failed so we can overcome.

Follow me for more sharing on why retreats are the fastest growing area of the travel industry and HOW you can harness this now.

Do you relate to any of these traits?

What would you add to this list?

07/08/2026

WTF?

Stop this nonsense!

It’s not or never will be chic to be a dick!

Go play, have fun, be irreverent.

Or get into work and create something meaningful.

Serve yourself or serve your community of wonders who want to retreat with you.

Stop kidding yourself creating nonsense is making you ‘popular’ or intersecting FFS!

Set yourself free and fill your creative cup!
