Tune out. Tune in.
A Leadership Retreat like no other.
Time to Recharge, Reinvent & Realign
Burnout is quietly pushing powerful women out of the room.
It’s now the number one reason women are leaving the corporate world and stepping back from businesses they once built with passion. 42% of women say they’re experiencing some stage of burnout - that number jumps to 53% if you're a leader and soars to a staggering 58% if you're a Black or Brown woman. The fires that once fuelled our ambition are now threatening to extinguish our careers, our joy, and our well-being.
The Retreat’s ambition
Setting the standard for a new type of Leader
Time to Recharge, Realign & Reinvent
That’s why I created Tune Out, Tune In - a 3-day, 4-night leadership retreat for high-performing women who are ready to recalibrate, reclaim their energy, and reignite on their own terms. This isn’t a spa weekend. It’s a strategic, soulful intervention. You’ll learn to recognise burnout before it derails you, set unshakeable boundaries, and untangle the guilt, fear, and “good girl conditioning” that quietly shackle so many of us.
Unlike one-dimensional retreats, we address both the internal and external forces that drain you — and equip you with a 360-degree toolkit to lead with clarity, conviction and intuitive power. Through deep workshops, honest conversations, movement, ritual and laughter, you’ll learn to Tune Out the noise… so you can truly Tune In to yourself.
What we uncover
Day 1: Recharge
With Lynn Blades, BA, PCC, MGSCC - Executive Leadership Coach & Author of the bestselling book “The Quiet Burn: The Ambitious Woman’s Guide to Recognizing and Preventing Burnout”
Putting Yourself First: Day One sets the foundation with truth-telling, insight, and bold self-inquiry. Through deep exploration of burnout’s hidden toll, courageous conversations about boundaries, and a redefinition of what ambition can look like without self-sacrifice, women begin to reclaim their inner authority. This is the day they stop just coping - and start leading themselves back to wholeness.
Day 2: Realign
With Dr Tosin Bowen-Wright, Embodiment Coach Vicky Longley
Day Two is a transformational arc - moving from awareness to release to reclamation. Women begin by mapping where their energy is spent versus invested, uncovering hidden drains and building a personalized replenishment plan. Through resilience storytelling, an intimate pair-share, a symbolic shredding ritual, and a powerful embodied journey using movement, music, and scent, participants release what no longer serves and rise into their fullest, truest selves - expansive, grounded, and unapologetically powerful.
