Does This Sound Familiar?
✓ You’ve spent years building a life—career, family, responsibilities. From the outside, it looks like you have it all together. Yet, something inside feels restless, like a quiet voice calling for more—a life that feels truly aligned, meaningful, and deeply yours.
✓ You catch yourself wondering, "Is this it?"
✓ You feel a little stuck. Lost. Maybe even invisible. You want more, but you’re not sure what “more” looks like (it may actually be less) —or how to get there.
Yes? I want you to know: You’re not alone. And you’re not lost. You just haven’t been HERE before.
I know this place well - I've been here, and I've helped hundreds of women who have been here too. This feeling of restlessness is actually your invitation and call into something greater. It’s the call to step into the woman you were always meant to be. This retreat is your opportunity to answer that call - a new chapter is waiting for you.
Let Me Walk This Journey With You
Hi, I’m Deborah, and I’ve been where you are.
For over 20 years, I’ve worked with women navigating the deep, sometimes messy, transitions of midlife. Together, we’ve uncovered dreams buried under the weight of responsibilites and “shoulds,” healed the wounds of self-doubt and guilt, and created lives that feel free, joyful, and meaningful.
This retreat is where transformation begins. It’s a space where you can exhale, reconnect with yourself and others, and step forward into your 'what's next?' with clarity, courage and support.
Julia Healey, Yoga Teacher
"Deborah's retreat changed my life. I went in feeling confused and small, and I left feeling strong, clear, and ready to take on the world. Deborah has a way of seeing you—even the parts you try to hide—and helping you step into your full potential."
Lisa Driver, Marketing Executive
"Before this retreat, I felt lost and overwhelmed. Now, I have a clear vision for my future and the courage to pursue it. I can’t thank Deborah enough for helping me find my way."

1. Rediscovering You: Gently untangle the threads of who you are now from who the world expects you to be.
2. Clarify What You Want – Quiet the noise, reconnect with your inner desires, and uncover what truly lights you up.
3. Letting Go: Release the fears, guilt, self-doubt and limiting beliefs holding you back.
4. Build a New Vision: Create a vision and roadmap for what’s next – the vibrant, fulfilling life you deserve, and take the first steps toward living it fully.
Your Experience Includes:
🧠 Transformative Workshops: Thoughtfully designed sessions on self-discovery, boundaries, and embracing midlife as a powerful transition to help you clarify and create your next chapter.

Is This for You?
This retreat is perfect if you:
-
Feel stuck or unsure about what’s next.
-
Are craving time to focus on yourself without guilt.
-
Want tools and support to create meaningful change.
I work with women from all walks of life - accomplished professionals, freelancers, entrepreneurs and CEOs, and Mums who put their career on hold to focus on family. And they all have the same things in common. THAT's what makes this retreat so special and perfect for you.
What You’ll Gain
When you leave this retreat, you’ll take with you:
• A clear sense of what you want and why it matters.
• Practical tools to navigate midlife’s challenges with grace.
• A renewed connection to your inner strength and wisdom.
• Deep, lasting friendships with women who “get it.” Who truly see, celebrate and support you.
This is your ‘reset’. And, no previous experience needed.
Why this Matters
Think about it....
This moment in your life isn’t the end of something; it’s the beginning.
Midlife is a powerful invitation to reconnect with your truth, own your worth, and rewrite your story. You don’t have to figure it out alone.

A Final Word
I know how easy it is to put yourself last. To tell yourself that now isn’t the time, or that you’ll figure it out on your own. But here’s the truth: Your life is waiting for you. The time is now. Let me help you take the next step.
What’s at stake if you don’t take this chance? Staying stuck. Feeling restless and unfulfilled. Waking up another year from now, wondering what could have been. Every day you delay is another day living out of alignment with who you truly are. This retreat is your opportunity to reclaim your power and design a life you love.
Are you ready to answer the call? Your new chapter is waiting, and I can’t wait to walk this path with you.
