A retreat for creative women

You have always
had a story to tell.

South Coast NSW  ยท  23โ€“25 October 2026  ยท  Seven women

I talk to so many creative women who are so bloody good at what they do and have absolutely no idea WTF to talk about online.

Mostly because no one ever sat them down long enough to help them work out what they actually wanted to say in the first place.

That's what this is for.

What we're doing together

Find your story.
Then trust it.

We're going to spend the weekend learning how to find your story and trust it. Because your story is the most powerful marketing tool you have and most people have absolutely no idea it's even there.

Let's get into what content actually is and how to make it without wanting to yeet your phone across the room. We'll work out your messaging, who you're talking to, what they're actually feeling, whether you're trying to talk to everyone and somehow reaching no one.

What do you actually want to say that isn't just "I do this."

Because there's something in you that's more than a service. Once you find it, you will see just how powerful that can be.

Reading alone by the tree in golden light

There'll be a creative writing component too. Not the kind that makes you feel like you're back in year ten English. The kind where you sit in a warm room with good people and realise you have been telling stories your whole life. You just didn't know you were allowed to use them.

You'll go home with content batched, stories found and a really clear idea of what you're actually saying online.

The experience

A place that already
feels like yours.

Two nights at a stunning private property on the South Coast. The kind of place that already feels like yours the minute you step in. Warm and held and cosy in a way that makes you feel like you can actually breathe.

The whole weekend is built around one thing. Every conversation, every session, every meal is pointed at the same thing: helping you find what you want to say and how to say it.

Room to breathe

A full weekend of storytelling, messaging and content work that will shift not just what you post but how you actually feel about showing up in the first place. Because putting yourself out there can feel so cringe sometimes. This weekend is about changing that from the inside out.

A creative writing session because you have been telling stories your whole life and it's time to start using them.

Content creation sessions so you go home with actual stuff you can use and the confidence to keep making it yourself.

I am not joking and it is going to be the best thing that happens to you all year.

Midnight margaritas.

A whimsy fest of an evening that I cannot wait to tell you more about.

Who this is for

You're a creative who knows your work is good but your words don't match it yet.

You feel like yourself in person and like a completely different person the second you open Instagram.

You're posting and guessing and hoping something lands and you are so tired of it.

You want better clients. The ones who get you, trust you, and don't ask if you can do it cheaper.

You want to come away from a weekend feeling full. Not burnt out. Full.

That's you, right?

Come.

Who this is not for

If you're looking for a purely academic experience with no room to breathe, laugh, eat good food and be a little bit human about where you're at, this probably isn't it.

And if you've got a stick so far up your ass you can't be silly and open and a little bit honest about where you're actually at... also probably not it ๐Ÿ˜…

This is immersive. Personal. It's going to ask something of you.

Good things usually do.

A note from me

Growing up I thought I was just a really good liar. I could spin a yarn like nobody else. I once convinced my mum I needed glasses to the point where she got me actual glasses with clear lenses in them. She even brought them to school when I forgot them at home. I forgot about needing them entirely the following term.

It turns out I wasn't lying. I was just telling stories.

That's what I want to give you this weekend. Not a content strategy. Not three pillars to abide by. The ability to look at your own life and see it as proof of exactly who you are and why your dream clients have been searching for someone like you. I want to sit with you, hold space for you, and help you figure out how to tell all of this without it feeling like you're selling out or using the vulnerable parts of your life to make money.

And then I want to have a long lunch with you amongst the vines, eat pizza, drink wine and beer and just have the best bloody time.

Seven spots. Seven is my favourite number. Two nights. Late October. I really hope you're one of them.
