Testimonials
Since the retreat, especially the cacao ceremony I haven’t felt the need to have any caffeine and have found myself waking up and feeling less tired in the mornings. The whole experience was just wonderful. I can’t imagine it being any better honestly. Everything about it…the location, the people, the weather, the food, the sessions, the walks the olive oil tasting were just amazing. It’s something that I will treasure always.

Steph and Jas – you are magic. Words cannot convey the gratitude I have to both of you. You are incredible and inspiring women and your energy was felt throughout the entire experience. The retreat was transformational due to everything you poured into it. Thank you for a life-changing experience and for connecting a group of strong, and powerful women. I hope you know how special you are.

A life-changing week. Over the last year, I had been getting gradually more anxious and stressed, eating badly and barely pausing for breath. The retreat was not just an opportunity to change surroundings but also to relax, learn about ways to physically overcome stress and journey into my subconscious mind for some answers. Since the retreat, I have felt like a different person: calmer, more level headed and healthier. This retreat should be on prescription for anyone struggling to cope.

Can’t thank you guys enough for the last few days – besides from the obvious stagnant grief and stress that has been released, I think my creativity has been stagnant for way longer than I realised. My entire flight home has been full of journaling creative thoughts and ideas that I can’t wait to go an explore further. So I think really it has also freed my creativity too. Amazing 🙏🏻 my lack of energy and motivation to take hold of my own life is probably all down to this, lack of being interested in planning or thinking about my meals and what I consume, lack of motivation to wake up early, stuck with ideas of what to do next in my career etc. I think something has been unlocked… thank you both ❤️☯️

It was an incredible experience. I really feel it helped me to celebrate the healing that I have received in the last year and to apply it to my emotional being as well as physical. I felt like the two connected after the retreat.

The retreat was a therapeutic experience and it was very emotionally moving to be in a space where strong feminine energy could be out fully. Thank you thank you thank you!

I feel really connected to myself, physically, emotionally and mentally. Domaine Madrona was a perfect backdrop for the retreat and I felt like I was at home. I really feel like the retreat has positively impacted me more than words can describe – I’ve noticed upon coming home, I am calmer, more connected and at peace.

It has been over a week since I got home and I have been shocked by how driven I feel to make healthy choices for myself every day. From healthy eating to incorporating movement in daily. I also feel more clear-minded. This was my first ever wellness retreat and I wouldn’t have changed a thing.

Steph and Jaz thought very carefully to provide us with a complete balanced package of activities, food, rest and play, which was perfect. In addition to which we benefitted by enjoying the company of a collection of wonderful friendly, non-judgemental women. We could want for nothing more.

You both have done an amazing job of building the retreat. From being ensconced in the trees, to eating well, moving regularly and guiding us through mentally cleansing practises the whole experience felt so intentional and wholesome. I won’t forget it.

It truly was a journey. I found it nourishing, calming, varied, fun, insightful, restorative, intentional and loving. I feel much calmer which was my intention at the beginning, and on top of that I feel more whole.

The retreat was simply transformational. The whole experience was crafted with thought, detail and care, and executed seemingly effortlessly. I have found myself coming home feeling more grounded, cantered and connected to myself. The overall experience was so much more than what I thought I needed.

I came away feeling more confident in who I am and what my purpose is for this next season. I feel that the time away, the talks, the sessions, helped me process a lot of what has been going on in my life and help me come up with some goals.

It was just the best experience ever at the right moment in my life.

Genuinely transformed my outlook on life in a busy world. I now get up earlier to take time for myself to stretch and appreciate my body before the day. I feel, in myself, less frustrated by things I can’t control and more in control of things I can. Physically I feel looser and more energetic (also lost a few pounds)! Mentally and emotionally I have so much more motivation, I feel so much more relaxed about frustrations and more able to tackle each day with breath work and journaling.

One week post retreat and I don’t say this lightly, but I truly can’t believe how different I feel in myself. I feel content, calm and grounded. I want to say it’s a long time since I have felt this way, but I don’t remember when it was that I did which makes me wonder if I ever felt it at all.
I had a crappy thing happen last week (nothing serious, just an issue with the festival that I run) and I feel that my emotional response was very different to how it would have been before. There have been lots of small things that just seem to brush past me in a way that they wouldn’t have done before.
Thank you will never quite be enough, but thank you anyway ❤️
