Return
Aligned
NSW South Coast | March 2026
Two nights of story, values, courage, and connection.
An Affection Economy Retreat.
“This isn’t a wellness escape or a corporate program. It’s a circle of women gathering to pause before burnout, realign their values, and carry story, courage, and agency back into daily life.”
This Isn’t a Wellness Retreat.
It’s not juice cleanses, biohacking or the latest fad.
It’s not networking — women do that naturally.
It’s not about climbing ladders, chasing deals, or spa pampering.
This Is Something Else.
This is a gathering for women who want to return aligned.
To live and lead with their values intact.
To bring story, courage, kindness, and agency into every decision — from the kitchen table to the boardroom.
You’ll eat beautifully, rest deeply, and move gently.
But those are the extras.
The heart of this retreat is story and values — the two things that protect us from burning out, and bring us back to the fullest version of ourselves.
Why This Retreat?
Because women deserve space to pause and return to everyday, aligned.
Because every decision we make — at the kitchen table, at work, in boardrooms, amongst our communities — shapes the world around us.
Because we don’t need to be “empowered.” We already stand in power.
This retreat is a chance to gather, to remember that truth, and to carry it back into our daily lives.
What’s included
2 nights boutique accommodation — king rooms with ensuite. Single occupancy as standard; twin-share available by request.
All meals — seasonal, local, nourishing.
Daily workshops with Jet Swain — story as map, values compass, courage and kindness, and building legacy.
Movement & reflection — optional yoga, beach and nature walks.
Time to rest — journaling, conversation, quiet.
A supportive circle of women — only 10–12 places available.
Why Invest in Yourself?
Women are brilliant at investing in everyone else — children, partners, families, workplaces, teams, friends, communities.
But when it comes to ourselves, we hesitate.
We tell ourselves it’s indulgent.
Unnecessary.
Selfish.
I know this because I lived it.
I didn’t pause.
I didn’t invest.
I pushed through until my body and my spirit forced me to stop.
I survived breast cancer.
Raised two daughters as a single parent.
And led teams for decades in industries built for burnout.
What I learned is simple:
burnout doesn’t arrive overnight. It creeps in when we keep going.
This retreat is how we pause before it breaks us.
When women pause, when we realign, when we return to our own story, everyone benefits.
Our families, our workplaces, our communities, our friendships.
This retreat isn’t a luxury.
It’s an act of courage.
An act of remembering who you are.
And an act of returning — to yourself, to your story, and to the quiet power you already hold.
That’s why I’ve created this retreat — to give women the pause I never gave myself.

This is your invitation
Avoiding burnout isn’t about working harder.
It’s about pausing, reflecting, and investing in yourself now — not when it’s too late.
If you’re ready to say yes to yourself, to return aligned, and to carry that clarity back into your work, your family, and your community — I would be honoured to hold a place for you.
