THE RADIANCE RETREAT

A four-day retreat in the Portuguese countryside, designed to help you reconnect with your body, your inner knowing and the way you truly want to live.

A cozy indoor space with a wooden ceiling and walls, open to a view of trees outside. There is a round wooden table with a tray holding two teapots and cups, surrounded by various patterned cushions on the floor.

When we think of radiance, we often think of something we can see.

A glow. A confidence. A presence.

But lasting radiance is something we feel first.

It’s the aliveness that returns when you’re connected to yourself. When you trust what you want, follow what excites you and allow yourself to take up space in your own life.

It’s what naturally emerges when your life begins to reflect who you really are.

The Radiance Retreat is four days away from your normal routines, roles and responsibilities to remember what makes you feel most like you and imagine what becomes possible when you start living from there.

This isn’t about spending four days fixing yourself.

It’s about coming back to life.

Living room with beige sofa, wooden coffee tables, various decorative hats on the wall, large windows with wooden frames, houseplants, and a wooden ceiling.

Perhaps you can feel a new chapter beginning.

You want more colour, freedom, expression or adventure in your life, but you haven’t had the space to explore what that might look like.

Maybe you’ve done a lot of reflecting already. You understand yourself better than you once did, but you’re ready to stop circling the inner work and start living what you’ve learned.

Or perhaps you simply want four beautiful days surrounded by nature, meaningful conversation and women who are asking similar questions about how they want to live.

You don’t need to arrive with a problem to solve.

You only need to be curious about what might become possible when you give yourself the time and permission to listen.

Your home for four days and three nights

Nestled in the Arrabida National Park in 20 hectares of beautiful countryside Quinta Do Amor offers the space to slow down enough to hear yourself again.Sometimes a change of place is what allows us to see ourselves more clearly.

    I've spent over a decade helping founders, leaders and individuals recognise the patterns they couldn't yet see.

    Helping people reconnect with themselves so they can make clearer decisions about the lives they're creating.

    This retreat is an extension of that work.

The Journey

The four days will move gently from awareness into expression. The experience is intentionally paced and lightly held, combining guided sessions with space for rest, nature, conversation and integration. You will be invited into each part of the journey at a pace that is comfortable for you, knowing that what you put in is what you will get out.

❋ Remember

We begin by slowing down, arriving in the space and reconnecting with the parts of you that everyday life can make difficult to hear.

What do you want? What makes you feel alive? What have you known but not yet allowed yourself to follow?

❋ Make space

We look at what may be taking up space that you’re ready to use differently: old expectations, inherited ideas and versions of yourself that no longer feel quite right.

With the intention of creating more room for what wants to come next.

❋ Come alive

Through movement, sensuality, sound, nature and shared experience, we move out of the head and back into the body.

This is where the retreat opens into pleasure, creativity, connection and expression, the things that remind you life is here to be experienced, not endlessly worked out.

❋ Bring it to life

We finish by turning what you have rediscovered into something you can carry home.

You’ll explore what you want to say yes to, what you want to create and how you want to live when you return, not through a rigid plan, but with a clearer sense of direction and the confidence to follow it.

How the days will feel

Think slow mornings, beautiful food, music, movement, conversations that go somewhere and plenty of time outside in the Portuguese sun.

There will be guided sessions, but there will also be room to swim, walk, read, rest, laugh, connect and follow the energy of the group.

Across the four days, you can expect:

  • Guided conversations and personal insight

  • Movement, sensuality and embodied expression

  • Sound healing and music

  • Time in nature

  • Beautiful shared meals

  • Space for creativity and reflection

  • Honest conversation and new connection

  • Time to rest and do absolutely nothing

  • A few moments of magic we’re keeping as a surprise

It will be meaningful, but it will also be joyful.

There will be depth, but there will be lightness too.

What you might take home

A luxurious outdoor swimming pool area with lounge chairs, umbrellas, and a shaded seating area, set against a white building with a tiled roof and a staircase.

A clearer sense of what you want and greater trust in your ability to follow it.

Feeling more expressive, more creative, more connected to your body and more excited by your own life.

You might make a decision you’ve been circling for months. Or remember something you love. Or meet women who open up a completely new way of seeing what is possible.

The intention isn’t to send you home as a different person.

It is to send you home feeling more fully yourself, and ready to do something with it.

This is your invitation

To finally build a life that’s true to you.
To move in rhythm with your own energy.
To lead from who you are - not who you’ve been told to be.

The next chapter doesn’t start when you arrive.
It starts the moment you decide that it’s time to cross.

“I’m more open to trusting the process and allowing things to unfold rather than feeling like I need to have everything figured out.

I feel like I’ve peeled back another layer of myself and can feel more comfortable and accepting of where I am and what I’m stepping into.”
