12-13th Feb 2025: Transform your leadership presence, vitality and impact, from the inside out.

*This isn’t just a retreat—it’s an intensive, results-focused experience to transform how you lead. Through two powerful in-person days and three interactive online group sessions, you’ll reflect, strategise, and take action—all while learning to sustain high performance without sacrificing energy or balance.

Here’s how we’ll make it happen.

  1. Connect: Reflect and reconnect with your inner leader. Discover your unique strengths, values, and principles, along with what drives and drains you. Break through personal barriers and become a more conscious, purpose-driven leader who shows up with real influence and impact.
  2. Clarify: Gain crystal-clear clarity on your vision and how you want to show up as a leader. Define what success means to you, and set meaningful goals to achieve your work and life vision. This is about building focus and momentum.
  3. Create: Develop a strategic plan to turn your vision into reality. You’ll identify the habits, behaviours, and mindset needed to accelerate your leadership to the next level. This is about action, personal accountability and results
  4. Charge: Build the resilience to sustain high performance. Learn practical methods to recharge, maintain your energy, and avoid burnout, so you can lead with vitality and passion for the long haul.

Leave the retreat recharged, focused, and ready to take action. Lead with the authenticity, passion and vitality that creates real impact and influence.

The Venue

Armada House is the ideal setting for our two days in-person of reflection, connection and growth. Nestled in the peaceful surroundings of Spanish Point in Clare, this boutique residence offers stunning sea views, cosy fires, and an inspiring meeting space. If you’re searching for inspiration, you’ll find it here.

With Armada’s renowned reputation, we can count on impeccable service, great food and caring attention to detail.

The Experience

This exclusive programme, limited to 10 participants, provides the focused space and support to achieve real, breakthrough results. Expect an interactive, energising, and transformational experience. This is the PAUSE you need to reconnect with your core purpose, reignite your energy, and create a clear plan to achieve your leadership vision.

This will require you to look deep inside, confront your limiting beliefs and challenge what’s holding you back. This is the kind of personal work that drives lasting impact yet often gets pushed aside.  Come ready to dig deep, be open to change and ready to take bold action.

In addition to the 2-day in-person immersion, you’ll engage in two dynamic online group coaching sessions to expand your growth and keep you accountable and energised as you put your insights into action.

Be comfortable and be yourself – whatever that means to you.

If weather permits, we may take a stroll to the beach for some inspiration, so wear or bring some comfy shoes and a warm layer.

If you’re more comfortable wearing formal shoes or heels, wear them. If you’re more comfortable in jeans/ leggings/ casual wear – wear them.

Either way, have your comfy shoes and coat on standby!

This retreat is for what I call ‘Change Makers’ – purpose-driven business leaders ready to take action and make a real difference.

This is for business leaders who value a human approach. That means tapping into what makes us real—our strengths, our ability to connect deeply, and the desire to create purpose and fulfillment in work and life. When we lead from that place, we can bring out the best in ourselves and those around us.

This is for leaders who are willing and ready to dig deep, grow, and lead with more purpose, vitality, and impact.

There won’t be any scheduled yoga, cold plunges, or meditation sessions, because they may not be everyone’s cup of tea. But rest and renewal are front and center, which is why we’ve chosen the Armada House. The moment you arrive, the sea air, stunning views, and cosy fires will instantly bring you a sense of calm. And if yoga or cold plunges are your thing, there’ll be time in the mornings and evenings for that too.

Staying overnight will truly elevate your experience, even if you live locally. We’ve curated this retreat to give you the space to think, recharge, and renew. The rooms at the Armada House are like a little slice of heaven, designed to deepen your PAUSE experience. If you really can’t stay due to family commitments or otherwise, contact me directly and we can explore options.

All compensation is non-refundable unless otherwise stated. This retreat is for individuals who are fully committed. With limited spaces available, and out of respect for others who may want to join, it’s important that you’re 100% certain before signing up. Please take the time to consider your commitment carefully. Full details of the cancellation policy can be found in our T&C’s.
