Travel
As a personal development junkie, I love seeing people change and develop. I love watching people grow - people becoming something.
I also love speed. The fastest way to watch someone change or grow is by putting them into a new environment. Our environments often keep us the same. We behave in a comfortable way when we are in comfortable surroundings.
I regularly take people away. Away from their lives, their businesses and their comfort zones. I run retreats for women and for business owners. Sometimes in stunning retreat centres, sometimes in incredible hired homes and sometimes in exciting cities like Shanghai.
Traveling to new places is so good for us. It changes us. When you arrive in a country where everything is different, you start to see everything differently! It can be stressful. Managing new currencies, new time zones, different languages and different foods can all be quite disruptive. It can also be a glorious way to reset your beliefs and thinking.
Staying in a luxury hotel where you get to indulge in an unbelievable international buffet at breakfast time changes the way you view breakfast. The rushed tea and toast can be swapped for leisurely dumplings and tea eggs. Or maybe French pastries or tropical fruit platters. Starting the day with choices sets up your day for interesting decisions!
When we step out of monotony and obligation and into a world of choice and possibility, things change. Your mindset changes, your tastes change and things you had never considered become options.
Travel is a great leveller. It opens your eyes and your mind. When we are away from our everyday lives, we have more time to stop and reflect on our lives. You get to notice your personal preferences. What you do and don’t like.
Every time I take a group of people away, I get to spend the week encouraging them to step into their light, to realise that they are important, valuable and deserve all the joy in the world.
When we go to Shanghai, the tailor-made clothing becomes a metaphor for your life! During the week, women realise that just like the coats they are buying, your life can also be made to measure. Imagine your tailor-made life. A life where you decide what you will and won’t stand for. What you will and won’t do. A life that fits you and feels amazing. It may be plain, it may be embellished but it is your life. On your terms.
Witnessing people for a week is a huge honour. We laugh and cry and shop and eat. We sit around dinner tables and hear each other's stories. We support each other, we learn about each other.
Travel is a great leveller. It opens your eyes and your mind. I am obsessed with people living their lives the way that they want to. The experiences I create all do this. Whether it is a week of experience somewhere as remote as China or a nurturing week redesigning their worlds at Repotted in the remote Coromandel - I love it!
I have a couple of spots left on my Shanghai trip in April - if you have a desire to travel in a fun and supportive group - to eat what you want, buy what you want and do what you want with everything organised for you - then this could be the best week of your life!
I created these trips to make it easy for women to have what they want. Some travel alone, some have never traveled before. I am there every step of the way to guide you and boss you and encourage you.
If this sounds like fun - I have a few spots available for Shanghai Shopping Experience 2026.
