next retreat: to be confirmed
For women who want to check out and check in to a weekend of personal development, pampering and relaxation, to refocus, recharge and to learn how to become more successful in life, love and work.
As women we play many roles and sometimes when we have highly developed these sides to our personality we lose sense of our CORE self. This retreat focuses on getting back in touch with the CORE self so that we can rediscover our true nature, passion and purpose.
Have you ever wondered why a group of people all respond very differently to the same situation, or why some of us struggle with communication with certain people or in certain situations?
Develop a deeper understanding of your communication style, your core values and your decision-making style using Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), one of the most popular and widely used personality profiling tools.

the 16 types of personality based on myers briggs type indicator (mbti)
There are 16 personality types based on eight preferences – the focus of your personal energy which is either Extroverted or Introverted, how you gather information using either Sensing or Intuition, how you make decisions using either Thinking or Feeling and how much structure and flexibility you need in the outer world Judging or Perceiving.
By the end of the 2 day retreat you should have a 4 part code that will identify each of these preferences such as ENFP or ISTJ.
This code will unfold over the course of the 2 days in a very inactive environment where you will self discover the code through a series of activities and interactions. This is a fun-packed way to self-discover your true or core type.
For me, identifying my CORE self and understanding the different parts and make up of my personality was one of the most empowering experiences of my self development. As a self-development junkie that’s saying something. I really understood how the different parts of my personality were playing out and how to get back to my CORE self, reduce stress and align with my core values and beliefs. This is why this workshop is one of my all time favourites to facilitate.
