When was the last time you took a day for yourself?

Not an hour squeezed between responsibilities.

Not time off while your mind is still planning, remembering and thinking about what everyone else needs.

A full day to step away from the noise, breathe more deeply and reconnect with yourself.

On Sunday 27th September, I’m bringing a small group of women together at beautiful Cowslip Meadows in South Leicestershire for Flourish — A Day to Come Back to Yourself.

There will be gentle movement, meditation, coaching, restorative healing experiences, nourishing food and time to enjoy the peaceful countryside setting.

You do not need to arrive with anything worked out.

You can simply come as you are, allow yourself to be supported and give yourself the day you may have been postponing.

Coming alone is warmly welcomed. Many women do.

Sunday 27th September | 10am–5pm
Cowslip Meadows, South Leicestershire

Places are intentionally limited to keep the day personal and supportive.

There are now just 2 spaces remaining for Flourish at Berry Farm, Cirencester on Sunday 5th July.

This retreat day is for the woman who has been holding a lot.

The one who keeps going.
Keeps showing up.
Keeps being capable.
Keeps saying “I’m fine.”

But underneath it all, her body is tired.
Her heart feels quiet.
And somewhere along the way, she’s lost the sound of herself.

Flourish is a day to pause.
To soften.
To let your nervous system settle.
To hear what’s been sitting underneath the noise.

A day of cacao, meditation, energy healing, gentle movement, sound, reflection, beautiful food and being held in a small, nurturing space.

Sunday 5th July
Berry Farm, near Cirencester
10am–5pm
£159 including lunch or come with a friend two spaces fro £250.
2 spaces remaining

You don’t need to come with anyone.
You don’t need to know exactly what you need.
You just need to feel the pull to give yourself one day to come back to you.

🍁 The Return to Self Retreat is here 🍁

A little glimpse of the space I’ll be holding the next weekend retreat in…

After the beautiful retreat space we created in Cornwall earlier this year, I’ve felt called to open another weekend retreat — this time at the end of October, across the powerful threshold between October and November.

A luxury restorative and transformational weekend retreat for the woman who has spent too long holding everything together…

and is ready to come back to herself.

From Friday 30 October to Monday 2 November 2026, I’ll be holding this intimate women’s retreat at Tregulland & Co a private luxury estate near Launceston, Cornwall.

Set within 16 acres of private land, with cosy fires, beautiful spaces to rest and gather, a pool and spa facilities, this is a space to retreat from the noise of everyday life and finally put yourself first — without needing to justify it.

This retreat is for the woman who looks like she’s coping, but quietly feels disconnected beneath the surface.

Sleeping, but still tired.
Achieving, but not truly fulfilled.
Grateful, but wondering where she went inside her own life.
Saying “I’m fine” because nothing is technically wrong — but something still feels missing.

Places are very limited to keep the retreat intimate and deeply held - a maximum of 12 women.

If something in you is quietly saying this is for me, I’d love you to explore the full details.

I received these beautiful messages after last weekends Flourish retreat and they honestly meant so much 🤍

When I created Flourish, I wanted it to be more than a lovely day out.

I wanted it to feel like a space where women could soften, breathe, feel held and come back to themselves in a way that felt gentle and real.

My role in these spaces is not to tell women who they are or what they need.

It is to gently hold up the mirror, create the space, and guide them back to what is quietly true for them, so they can hear themselves again and feel more connected to who they really are.

Reading these comments is such a reminder of why this work matters and you deserve to give this space to yourself.

Thank you to every woman who trusts the space, the day and each other. These days are all about the community and meeting other like minded women on a similar journey to yourself.

The next Flourish retreat is at Berry Farm, Cirencester on Sunday 5th July.

There are now 4 spaces remaining if you feel called to join us.

Still feeling the energy of Sunday’s Flourish retreat 🤍

Thank you to every woman who came, softened, shared, reflected, moved, rested and allowed herself to be held by the day.

There was such a beautiful feeling in the room — gentle, open, grounded and deeply nurturing.

The messages afterwards meant so much. Women shared that they felt peaceful, refreshed, calm, clear, inspired, and like something had shifted.

This is why I do this work.

Flourish is never just about taking a break. It’s about creating space to breathe again, hear yourself again, and remember that you don’t always have to hold everything together.

The next Flourish retreat is at Berry Farm, Cirencester on Sunday 5th July.

There are now 5 spaces remaining.

A new date has been added - Sunday 27th September - Cowslip Meadows, Leicestershire.

If something in you is craving space to soften, breathe and come back to yourself, I’d love to welcome you. Link below to the website.

Sometimes rest is not the whole answer.

You can book the day off.
Go somewhere beautiful.
Take the walk.
Have the quiet morning.
Tell yourself you just need to slow down.

And maybe you do.

But sometimes, even when you finally stop, the thoughts are still running.

The overthinking.
The responsibilities.
The roles you have been holding.
The stories you have carried for so long, you are no longer sure which ones really belong to you.

That is why Flourish is not just another lovely retreat day.

It is not a collection of practices placed into a beautiful setting.

It is a deeply held journey through the mental, emotional, physical and energetic layers of you — because real reconnection does not happen in one part of us alone.

A space where your nervous system can settle.
Where your body can stop bracing.
Where your mind can quieten.
Where your heart can begin to speak again.

On Sunday 5th July, Flourish: Journey Back to the Heart comes to Berry Farm, Cirencester.

A countryside women’s retreat day created for the woman who is ready to step out of the noise, soften what she has been carrying, and hear herself clearly again.

The day includes cacao, meditation, movement, coaching around people-pleasing and boundaries, Reiki, sound healing, inner child healing and womb healing.

Not to become someone new.

To come back to the woman underneath the roles.

I’ll also be supported by two beautiful practitioners who will be helping me hold the energy of the day.

🧘‍♀️ Yoga will be guided by Holly from Health & Fitness with Holly, bringing gentle movement, grounding and a beautiful embodied energy to help you arrive back into your body.

✨ Sound healing will be held by Ellie from For the Love of Ells Sound Therapy, creating a deeply soothing sound journey to support rest, release and integration.

This is part of what makes Flourish feel so deeply held — it is not just about the practices themselves, but the safety, sensitivity and care woven through the whole experience.

Flourish: Journey Back to the Heart
Sunday 5th July
10am–5pm
Berry Farm, Cirencester
£159 | Payment plan available

Spaces are available for this small group retreat.

One final space remains for Flourish at The Lygon Arms on Sunday 7th June.

A women’s day retreat for the part of you that knows rest alone isn’t quite enough.

The part that is tired of overthinking.
Tired of holding everything together.
Tired of being the one who keeps going, even when your body is asking for space.

Flourish is a deeply held journey through the mental, emotional, physical and energetic layers of you — created to help your nervous system settle, your body soften, and your heart begin to speak again.

The day includes cacao, meditation, Qi Gong, coaching around people-pleasing and boundaries, Reiki, sound healing, inner child healing and womb healing.

Not just a day to switch off.

A day to come back to yourself.

One space remaining
Sunday 7th June
10am–5pm

You think you just need more rest.

A quiet day.
A slower morning.
A little time away from everything.

And maybe you do.

But when you finally stop, the thoughts are still running around your head and your body has forgotten what relaxed feels like.

The overthinking.
The roles.
The responsibilities.
The stories you’ve carried for so long, you’re no longer sure which ones really belong to you.

Sometimes we do not just need another day to switch off.

We need the right space to soften.

A space where the nervous system can settle.
Where the body can stop bracing.
Where the mind can quieten.
Where the heart can begin to speak again.

That is why I created Flourish: Journey Back to the Heart.

Not as a collection of lovely practices, but as a deeply held journey through the mental, emotional, physical and energetic layers of you — because real reconnection does not happen in one part of us alone.

You are not left alone with the same thoughts in a prettier room.

You are guided through a journey that helps you step out of the noise, soften what you have been carrying, and hear yourself clearly again.

Not to become someone new.

To come back to the woman underneath the roles.

The Lygon Arms, Broadway, Cotswolds

The privilege of a lifetime is not becoming more acceptable.

It is becoming more honest.

But first, so many of us have to unlearn the versions of ourselves we created to be liked, chosen, approved of, praised, needed, safe.

The good girl.
The easy one.
The strong one.
The one who copes.
The one who never asks for too much.

Maybe becoming who you are is not about adding more.

Maybe it is about gently removing what was never really yours.

Have a soft weekend x

Flourish is more than a retreat day. It’s a deeply held experience.
I wanted to come and share a little more personally about me and what these retreat days really are, why they matter, and what women leave with.
These are spaces created for women who are craving room to breathe, soften, reconnect with themselves, and allow something real to shift.
If one of these days has been quietly calling you, this is your gentle reminder that early bird ends tomorrow, 12th May.
