This retreat has been born out of my own experience and journey from body burnout to thriving.

For years, I thought the only way I could find the peace I craved was to burn it all down, close my business, walk away from everything, and start fresh.

I know I’m not alone in this. So many ambitious women I work with are exhausted from constantly being on. Leading a business, showing up for clients, being there for family... and silently wondering: is this just what success is meant to feel like?

What I’ve learned... you don’t have to choose between leading a thriving business and having the space, stillness, and energy you crave.

That’s why I created Exhale.

A 3 day retreat for women who are ready to step out of survival mode, reconnect with themselves, and reignite the creativity and clarity that fuels not just their life, but their business too.

In this episode, I’m sharing:
💫 The story of how Exhale was born (and the moment I realised I couldn’t keep living in fight-or-flight).
💫 Why rest and nervous system regulation aren’t just nice-to-haves, but the secret weapon for sustainable success.
💫 What you’ll experience on retreat — yoga, meditation, sound healing, breathwork, conversations about women’s health, cycles, and seasons, plus plenty of time in nature.
💫 The tangible outcomes you can expect — more energy, clarity on your next steps, presence as a leader, and inspiration that ripples through every area of your life and business.

This retreat is about more than taking a weekend off. It’s about remembering who you are underneath the noise, and learning how to lead and live from that place of grounded power.

If your body is whispering (or shouting) that it’s time to pause, to breathe, to reclaim your spark — this is your invitation to join me.

🎧 Tune in now, and make sure you follow along over the next few weeks as I go live on Instagram diving deeper into these themes.
