This retreat is for women who want to
Be able to take a break without that nagging sense of guilt.
Release all that stress that gives you goblin posture & makes your neck sore
Stop the people pleasing
Laugh so hard you wee your pants
My pelvic floor was also left behind in my last birth. I too will be peeing my pants.
If you relate to just one of these, this retreat can change all that for you.
You're constantly exhausted
But your brain won't turn off so you scroll to relax.
Your husbands loud breathing shits you to tears.
You're irritated by the small things. You don't meant to be, but you don't know how to turn it off.
You snap at your kids more than you'd like
And you feel shit about it for the rest of the day
Everyone else around you says they're exhausted too - it's normal, right?
The thing is, this is your life - do you want to keep living that way?
FAQ
Where are we staying?
15 mins stoll from Ubud is our private luxury villa - Gaia Retreat Center.
The grand entrance opens up to an 8 bedroom villa with massage room, infrared sauna & pool. The dining area overlooks the rice terraces of Bali with swaying palm trees, therapeutic breeze wind chimes singing away.
I feel weird cause I don't know anyone
I hear you!
I promise you it's less akward than you think.
Other women have felt the same on the first day of past retreats (see testimonials) & I'm really good at making you feel welcome & included. Or you should book with a friend! Ask me about a cheeky 'bring a mate' discount.'
What’s not included?
Flights. Travel insurance. Visa. Personal shopping. One dinner in Ubud. Optional extras (spa add-ons or private healing ceremonies) aren’t included.
What happens after I pay my deposit?
Most important: You MUST do a happy dance and high five yourself! This is the best decision you've made all year.
Then I'll personally reach out to say WELCOME TO BALI BESTIE! You'll get a confirmation email with our (rough) itinerary payment plan details.
What if I can’t make it?
Deposits are non‑refundable.
If life really throws you a curly one and you can't come, you may be able to transfer your spot to a friend for a $250 fee.
Your payment balance is 50% refundable 60 days before retreat, and non refundable 30 days before the retreat.
What if I get sick?
Our private villa has been host to many incredible retreats with food safety & hygiene paramount. Bottled water will be available 24/7 at the villa, and you'll be reminded to regularly wash your hands. Common sense prevails here - but if you do become unwell, travel insurance is imperative for your medical safety.

Evening: Dinner & Early Bed
You readily fall asleep by 8pm, your body is happily tired and your mind is winding down on it's own.
Work will always be busy.
Your kids will always need you.
Let me hold your hand when I say this
The 'Right Time.' Is. Not. Coming.
There will always be a reason.
A work thing. A family thing.
A guilt thing shaped suspiciously like everyone else's needs.
And frankly, the people in your life will survive.
They might even surprise you.
Your out of office will survive without you.
Probably.
Think you can't leave the kids? Yes, you can.
They have a dad, a nana and access to Uber Eats.
They are going to be okay.
Your kids are resilient
You, on the other hand are very stretched thin. This is why we are here.
