Retreat Highlights
- 6 Days in Sicily
- Six days in the Sicilian countryside with five women who understand exactly what it feels like to hold everything together while quietly wondering what they've lost along the way.
- Small by design. Intimate by intention. You'll have personalised support, unhurried space, breathwork, somatic healing, nourishing locally inspired food, and long stretches of time where nothing is required of you except to arrive.
- This is what it feels like when your nervous system finally exhales.
- Integration Support (One Month After the Retreat)
- The real work begins when you go home. That moment when real life rushes back in and you want to hold onto what shifted in Sicily without losing it to the noise.
- We stay with you through that.
- Included:
- • Two live group integration calls to reflect, share your progress, and stay connected with the women you met in Sicily.
- • One private 1:1 EFT Tapping session to work through anything that surfaces as you settle into your next chapter and keep moving forward with real confidence.
About this Retreat
Your Guides
Claire Mary – NLP Coach, Breathwork Facilitator & Hypnotherapist
Claire guides women back to themselves through trauma-informed coaching, breathwork, meditation, and deep inner healing work. With warmth, intuition, and over a decade of experience supporting women through change and personal transformation, she creates a space where you can slow down, feel safe, and reconnect with your authentic voice.
Her work supports women who feel something is missing, who are longing to live more intentionally, and who are ready to release old patterns, inherited beliefs, and emotional blocks that may be holding them back.
Through one-to-one coaching, group programmes, and transformational retreats, Claire offers compassionate guidance that helps women move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and self-trust.
Chandree – EFT Practitioner, Reiki Master & Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner
Chandree brings a deeply nurturing and grounded presence to the retreat experience. Having studied Traditional Chinese Medicine for over 25 years, alongside extensive work in EFT Tapping, Reiki, and holistic healing, she combines wisdom, intuition, and practical tools to support emotional wellbeing and transformation.
Rooted in her Sicilian heritage, Chandree also brings the heart of Sicily into the retreat through nourishing local cuisine and genuine care for every guest experience. Her approach is warm, intuitive, and supportive, creating a space where you can feel held while gently exploring what you're ready to release and transform.
Together, Claire and Chandree create a safe and supportive environment where healing unfolds naturally, at your own pace. You'll be welcomed into a community where you feel seen, heard, and supported as you reconnect with yourself and step into your next chapter.
Details of this retreat
Is This You?
You've built something real. A career, a life, relationships that matter. From the outside it looks exactly right.
And yet.
There's a quieter version of you that surfaces at 2am, asking questions you don't have time to answer in the daylight. Is this it? What am I missing? When did I stop feeling like myself?
You're not falling apart. You're not in crisis. You're just aware, with increasing certainty, that something needs to change before life makes that decision for you.
Perhaps you're:
Successful and capable but privately feeling disconnected from what actually lights you up. Tired of performing a version of yourself that no longer feels true. Longing to feel electric again, not just functional. Ready to stop waiting for the right moment and finally choose yourself. Craving the kind of deep rest and honest conversation that everyday life simply doesn't make room for.
You don't need fixing.
You need space to remember who you are underneath everything you carry.

Schedule
A Typical Day
Each morning begins gently, movement, breathwork, or guided meditation, before gathering together for a nourishing breakfast.
Midday is yours. Wander into the village, find a spot by the beach, discover a local café, or simply stay close to home and do absolutely nothing. Lunch is your own time to explore at your own pace.
Early afternoons we come back together. Sessions might include EFT, Reiki, NLP coaching, hypnotherapy, or breathwork, flowing intuitively according to what the group needs that day. There is a structure holding you, and within it, genuine space to go where the healing wants to go.
Evenings bring everyone back together for a shared dinner, unhurried and nourishing. Sometimes the most profound conversations happen around the table, and we honour that. Healing doesn't clock off at 6pm.
This retreat isn't about filling every moment.
It's about creating enough space for something real to happen.
You've been holding everything together for a long time. This is six days where you don't have to.
