Mini-retreats and Weekend Retreats

Is this you?

Do you sometimes wonder if this is really how it’s meant to be as a woman and a Mum?

You’re constantly on the move, getting things done for everyone else, but it looks like you hardly did anything. You barely get time to even go to the loo some days, and you’ve run out of energy by school pick-up. No-one seems to notice how tired you are though, or how much there still is to do. Then you get up and do it all again tomorrow…

You’re not alone, and you can wake up and do things differently. You can feel like your old self again – or if you want – reinvent yourself into the woman you want to become and know has been there all along.  

It’s amazing what you can make happen when you have the right tools, space and support, with time to reflect and recharge. You can have all this at the Mini-retreats and Weekend Retreats.

 
 

What will we do?

It'll be challenging, insightful and fun, with lots of laughing, stories and aha moments. We’ll do interactive activities that make it clear about what's most important to you, how you use your energy and what you want to change. You work on your own things, then there's time to talk together and learn from other women's experiences as well (you share as much or little as you want). You’ll leave feeling amazing.

We’ll talk about:

  • What’s really important to you? How do you get this in your everyday life?

  • How can you best use your time and energy?

  • What beliefs do you have that help or hinder you? How can you change these?

 
 

Will the retreats really make much difference for me?

Your investment can change your life. At the retreats, you get to relax in a beautiful secluded location, food and drinks, a gift pack, take home resources and Deb’s knowledge gained over 20 years. After you leave, applying just 1% of what we talk about can make huge improvements in your life. You'll have the best possible chance of doing that with your new support circle - Deb and the like-minded women you connect with at the mini-retreat. If this is the change you want to see in your life, we'd love to help you make it a reality.

What’s holding you back?

  • I know you’re thinking you could never spend any ‘unnecessary’ money on yourself. But what if I told you this program was a lifesaver – for your health and well-being, for your kids, for your partner… would you look at it differently?

    This program is a rare opportunity to really change your life. Even applying just 1% of what you discover during this program can make a huge difference to your life in the coming weeks, months and years. It can also change your family for the better – how you feel, speak to each other and interact.

    You’re not just paying for a program over a few months. You’re investing in your (and your family’s) future. This is such a small investment to transform how and think and feel, and regain energy and joy in your life. It could even be the perfect gift for Valentine's Day, Mother's Day or your birthday.

  • If you’re stressed about leaving your kids for a night, I fully understand where you’re coming from.

    The truth is: one night away is a very small amount of time to dedicate to yourself in the grand scheme of things, especially when you consider the benefits that will come from it, both for you and for everyone in your family. Surely you’re worth that?

    And if anything really goes wrong, we’ll be staying only 30 minutes from Mackay’s city centre so you’ll be able to get home quickly if you need. We’ll also finish just after lunch on Sunday afternoon, so you've got time to get your kids and yourself organised for the coming week.

  • This retreat is not a luxury (even if the accommodation is very luxurious!) It’s a weekend of comprehensive reflection, strategic planning and personal growth. It’s designed to teach you how to create a life that makes you and all your family happier and healthier. It will nourish your mind, body and spirit. This small amount of time away from your family now will enrich all the future time you spend with them. That’s a fantastic way to invest your time and money.

  • Don’t you hate when you leave an amazing and empowering weekend only to go home and nothing’s changed? This retreat is just the beginning, followed by a 3 month program where you’ll learn how to put into practice everything you learned throughout the weekend, and then some. You’ll be leaving with techniques and tools (paper, electronic, visual, audio and tactile) that will:

    * Help you centre yourself, reconnect with your purpose and remember why your life is wonderful

    * Give you ways to find some moments for yourself at ANY time, so you recharge whenever you need

    * Guide you to make choices that support you as well as others, without frustration, anger, resentment or guilt

    * Help you clearly decide what's okay and what's not okay for you, what you’re willing to accept from others, and how to stand by your decisions in ways that are respectful and kind to people you care about

    * Support you to tap back into what's important to you

  • It’s not selfish to take time to do something that can transform your life - it’s just good sense.

    To simply keep suffering because you don’t want to appear selfish seems silly, doesn’t it? If you have less suffering and more joy in your life, your partner and your kids will have less suffering as well.
