What you will gain from the retreat
Small Group Experience
I intentionally keep the groups small, ensuring you receive the personal attention and care needed to foster meaningful change. This intimate setting allows for deeper discussions, personalized coaching, and the chance to form lasting connections with like-minded women.
You'll find comfort in knowing that you're not navigating midlife transitions alone—this group will support and inspire you throughout your journey.
Support Beyond the Retreat
Our journey together doesn’t end when the retreat does. At Pivot in Paris, we focus on giving you tools that you can carry into your everyday life. You’ll learn practices that support continued growth long after you leave Paris.
I offer post-retreat support, ensuring that the breakthroughs and insights you gain here are sustained as you return to your life. Think of this retreat as the beginning of a powerful transformation that will keep unfolding. And the best part is you will get to keep seeing your new « Parisian » friends once a month through our zoom group coaching meetings
Paris as a Transformational Backdrop
Paris will be your partner in this journey. Each iconic location—whether it’s walking up the Eiffel Tower, meditating at Monet’s Water Lilies, or reflecting at Père Lachaise—serves as a metaphor for your personal growth. This isn’t a sightseeing tour, but rather a moveable learning journey, where Paris becomes a living coaching classroom. As you explore the city’s rich culture and history, you’ll find it mirrors your own unfolding path toward self-discovery and inner empowerment.
Luxury and Comfort
At this stage in life, we’ve earned the right to enjoy the finer things, and that includes our comfort. You’ll be staying in a beautifully curated space where luxury meets coziness, allowing you to relax deeply after each day of self-discovery. Imagine sinking into a comfortable chair, enjoying a chef-prepared meal, and reflecting on your day in elegant surroundings designed just for you.
Because let’s face it, at our age, we appreciate balance. We know the importance of self-care and finding time to unwind. That’s why we’ve created a retreat where you can indulge in Parisian pleasures, from peaceful walks to exquisite food, all while having the space to reflect and grow in comfort.
Focus on Wellness and Self-Care
Taking care of your body is just as important as caring for your mind. Our retreat integrates wellness practices—from relaxing massages to nourishing delicious meals and calming environments. We’ve designed a retreat where your physical, mental, and emotional well-being are in harmony. You’ll return home not only transformed from the inside but also feeling refreshed and rejuvenated in every sense.
Personalized Coaching
At Pivot in Paris, this retreat is not a one-size-fits-all experience. I’m here to work with you individually, tailoring the coaching to your personal journey. Whether you’re feeling stuck, disconnected, or ready for a new chapter, we’ll explore what matters most to you. You’ll receive personalized feedback and guidance that allows for deep, meaningful change. Every activity, discussion, and reflection will be geared towards your unique growth.
