AN INVITATION to REDISCOVER the Woman You Were Always Meant to Be
finer details
WHEN:
27th July 2025
You weren’t meant to live on autopilot.
To shrink yourself to fit into systems that were never designed with you in mind.
To keep pushing through burnout, self-doubt, or the quiet ache of disconnection.
It’s time to come home to yourself. To remember who you are beneath the noise.
The Self-Led Woman is a one-day immersive retreat for women ready to break free from old patterns and reconnect with the woman they were always here to become.
Held in the heart of the Gold Coast Hinterland, this transformational experience is guided by six powerful facilitators and female founders — women who walk their talk and are on a mission to help others see and activate their own potential.
Together, they’ll guide you in calming your nervous system, connecting with Self, and equipping you with tried and tested, practical tools to lead your life from the inside out.

the experience
We begin by calming the nervous system and settling into presence — creating the internal safety needed to go deeper.
From there, we explore the inner landscape using Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy — meeting the protective parts, patterns, and conditioned beliefs that have kept you stuck. Through this gentle, powerful process, you’ll begin to understand and unburden what no longer serves you, expanding your capacity to receive and reconnect with your true self.
Once the space has been created, we move into activation and integration — where the real transformation begins.
Through powerful mindset and business coaching, you’ll explore your unique energetic blueprint and gain clarity on how you are designed to lead In life, relationships, and business. This part of the day is practical, personalised, and truly groundbreaking — you'll receive the insights you need to make aligned decisions, trust your inner compass, and truly lead from within.
We close with powerful integration practices to help you embody what you've uncovered — so you don’t just feel different, you move forward with clarity and confidence.
This retreat is a circuit breaker. A space to stop performing, tune out the noise, and come home to your truth. Because when a woman becomes self-led, everything changes — her family, her business, her community, her future.
The world needs more women leading from clarity, not conditioning. From power, not perfectionism. From alignment, not exhaustion.
This is where it begins.

WHAT AWAITS YOU
A GUIDED FULL-DAY RETREAT IN THE GOLD COAST HINTERLAND
Spend the day surrounded by nature, at a private retreat estate in the Gold Coast Hinterland. The day is designed to help you pause, reset, and get clear on where you're headed — with supportive practices that reconnect you with your focus, direction, and next steps.
BREATHWORK, SOUND, & NERVOUS SYSTEM REGULATION
We begin with the body. Zara will guide a session using calming breathwork and sound to help reduce stress, regulate your nervous system, and bring your mind and body back into sync. It's an opportunity to shift gears, recharge, and create the mental space you need to show up fully for the rest of the day.
INTERNAL FAMILY SYSTEMS (IFS) THERAPY + SOMATIC AWARENESS SESSION
Led by Megan, this session combines IFS (Internal Family Systems) with body-based tools to help you better understand and move past self-doubt, overthinking, burnout, and the patterns that are keeping you stuck. You’ll learn how to identify these inner blockers, where they come from, and how to start creating change from the inside out.
BRAND AND BUSINESS ALIGNMENT USING HUMAN DESIGN
You have your own individual path and purpose, and you deserve to have a life of freedom, fulfillment, and overflow. In this session, Grace and Hillary go beyond the chart — guiding you to explore your unique energetic blueprint in a grounded, practical way. In this session, we'll be leveraging YOUR mission, voice & gifts. You’ll uncover how your type, strategy, and authority influence how you make decisions, lead, and live. More than information, this is about embodiment — how to live your design in business, relationships, and daily life.
GUIDED MARKETING AND MANIFESTATION WORKSHOP
Hayley will guide you out of your manifestation funk and into a mid-year reset to find your authentic Self and create a manifestation practice that sticks, and creates ripples across your life and business. You’ll explore:
– The secret to manifestation that no one speaks about
– Aligning your actions with your values, priorities, and evolution
– What your inner authority is — and why it’s the key to aligned manifestation
– Why you might feel stuck at your current level — and how to break through it
– Why no goal is too “big” or “delusional” when you’re rooted in self-trust
– What the quantum crumble is — and how to move through it without giving up
– How to expand your window of tolerance using the breath and body
This isn’t just about calling things in — it’s about becoming the version of you who can hold them.
GUIDED FEMININE CACAO RITUAL
This gentle session, led by Cassey, is a chance to slow down and reconnect with your body through stillness, reflection, and the grounding ritual of cacao. It’s a space to check in, gain perspective, and return to yourself before stepping into your next chapter.
CATERED LUNCH & NOURISHING REFRESHMENT
You’ll be nourished throughout the day with a seasonal, wholesome lunch and light refreshments. All dietary requirements will be honoured with care and intention.
CUSTOM-DESIGNED BOOKET & INTEGRATION TOOLS
Each guest receives a beautifully designed booklet to anchor the day’s insights — including guided prompts, reflection space, and integration tools to carry the work forward into your daily life.

THE VENUE
PRIVATE RETREAT ESTATE | GOLD COAST HINTERLAND
We’ll gather at a private estate in the Gold Coast Hinterland — quiet, grounded, and surrounded by nature. From the moment you arrive, the environment invites you to slow down, soften, and step into something more intentional.
The day will move through a series of carefully held spaces across the property — beginning in circle, flowing through workshops, embodiment, and ritual, and closing together by the fire. The estate offers space not just to learn and process, but to connect with nature, integrate what’s unfolding, and come home to yourself — in a way that’s hard to access in the noise of everyday life.
SAVE YOUR SPACE
It’s important to us that this experience feels accessible — emotionally, energetically, and financially. The decision to invest in yourself isn’t always easy, and we honour the courage it takes to say yes to something that stretches you in the best way. To support you, Afterpay and Klarna are available at checkout.
WORDS FROM YOU
The retreat was next level! The accomodation, food, conversations to workshops. So expansive to be surrounded by like minded women, who love and support. To feel connected, seen and heard. I cannot wait to go on the next one. Grace thinks of every single detail, absolutely perfect.
