Experience facilitating a retreat

Connect & Collaborate with like-minded people

Recharge your battery

This is not just a retreat; this is a co-creative journey

Step into a week like no other, where exchanging knowledge, co-creating ideas, and recharging your energy take center stage. This is not a typical retreat where everything is pre-planned for you — here, you are an active part of the magic, contributing your unique skills and experience while learning from others.

  • Take well-deserved me-time to rest and recharge.

  • Experience facilitating a retreat and gain hands-on insights.

  • Connect deeply with like-minded people and feel the power of community.

  • Learn the secrets of organising successful retreats from industry experts.

  • Collaborate with other retreat professionals to spark fresh ideas.

  • Go home with renewed energy, inspiration, and clarity.

  • Build lifelong friendships and create opportunities for new collaborations.

A luxury villa with an infinity pool nestled in the stunning Costa Blanca, Spain. Warm sunshine, breathtaking views, and the peace of nature surrounding you. Time to unwind, disconnect from the stress of daily life, and reconnect with yourself.

Now, imagine sharing this space with like-minded, ambitious people who share your passion for retreats, creativity, and personal growth. Together, you will inspire and challenge each other, exchange ideas and build meaningful connections. Each participant brings their unique gifts to this co-created experience, crafting a truly transformative week full of real community energy.
 

What you’ll take home:

  • A heart full of inspiration and renewed motivation.

What the week looks like

We will make a schedule based on all the skills that the participants of the retreat brings. That means that right now it is still a surprise, also for me! But I 100% believe this will be an incredible week with a program that everybody would dream of. Together we create a soulful experience with community energy.

In order to make it a little bit structured the idea is that there will be a schedule upfront. There will be 1-3 spots on the schedule where you have a moment of facilitating (varying in duration depending on what fits for you). On top of that you will have 1 day scheduled where you have kitchen duties as the help for the chef. The rest of the days are off and are for you to enjoy the program of the other participants.

Fuel the body

Your belly will be very happy during the retreat. You will experience all the ways to arrange cooking at a retreat. Most of the times a chef will cook for us, but we will also enjoy paella or a smoothiebowl from a restaurant and will cook something ourselves!

It will be delicious and nutritious home made food. From finger-licking brunch, light lunch & snacks to dinner. Fruits, tea and water will be available all day.

All meals will be vegetarian and we can take into account specific dietary wishes. After the retreat you will receive 5 recipes so you can also experiment at home and yes they're quite easy to make. For the chefs thinking about joining; ofcourse you can make your own creations too!
