October 5th - 7th 2027 | Peak District, UK

Three days away from the day-to-day, with a small group of business owners, and me guiding the whole thing.

No rigid agenda. No sitting in a room being talked at from breakfast to bedtime.

You won't leave with something new to learn. You'll leave having finally worked out what you've already got, and how to make it work properly.

HELLO, I'M EMMA

Most strategists tell you to do more. I do the opposite.

I'm a Business Growth Strategist and mentor, and I help established business owners make more money by doing less. Getting the offers, the marketing and the sales right, and cutting everything that's just noise.

I built a 7 figure business that looked like success from the outside and was quietly running me into the ground. So I walked away, rebuilt from scratch, and designed something completely different. Simpler, more profitable, and built around a life I actually wanted.

The Dream Retreat came out of that. Because I know exactly what it feels like when your business has taken over your life and you've lost sight of why you started. And I know what actually changed things for me wasn't working harder. It was stepping back far enough to hear myself think again.

Come and join us.

The Dream Retreat is for you if:

You're an established business owner who's been running hard for a long time. From the outside it looks like you've got it together. Inside, you know something needs to shift. You're not broken and you're not failing. You're just ready for a different kind of conversation about what comes next.

You can't remember the last time you had a proper think. Real headspace, without the pings and the to do list and the next little fire to put out.

You're a bit done doing it on your own. You want to be in a room with people who genuinely get it, not surface level networking, but the kind of honest conversation that actually changes something.

I've watched this happen now. Vision boards that turned into real clarity within hours. Hot seats that were meant to last 20 minutes and ran for the best part of a day, because that's how long the real answer took to find. People who arrived a bit lost and left with decisions made, and a lot of them looked genuinely lighter by the time they drove home.

If a part of you feels guilty even reading this, 3 days away from the business and everyone who needs you, here's your permission. Slowing down isn't slacking off. It's the smartest thing you can do for a business that's been running on you for too long. You're allowed to do this. You don't have to earn it first.

If you read that and felt something inside go yes, you're exactly who this is for.

Not Your Average Retreat

If you're looking for sunrise yoga, cold water dips, or a colour coded agenda that runs you ragged, this isn't that.

And if you're expecting a retreat that hands you a new framework, a new strategy, another thing to learn and add to the pile, this isn't that either.

This is a heart-led business retreat. One that blends strategy with soul, and actually means it.

Here's what I've learned running it once already. The magic was never really about the agenda. It's about the right people, in the right space, with someone guiding it who's willing to follow the room instead of the plan. Last time, hot seats that were meant to happen once ran across all 3 days, because that's how long they needed. Conversations over dinner cracked things open that a scheduled session never would have.

So yes, there's space to breathe, to laugh, to sit in a cosy corner with a coffee and just be. And there's real work too. The kind that only happens when your nervous system finally drops out of fight or flight and your brain has room to think again.

That's the bit people miss about slowing down. It isn't the opposite of getting things done. It's the thing that makes the good work possible.

You already have what you need. Most of the time, what's missing isn't a new idea, it's the space to actually see the one you've already got.

You'll leave with ideas flowing, decisions made, and a plan you actually believe in. Not because we pushed harder. Because we slowed down enough to find it.

What’s included:

Your own private room. Every single person gets their own space to retreat to, so you've always got somewhere quiet to go when you need it. No sharing, no compromise, your own room for the whole 3 days.

Every meal taken care of. Delicious food and snacks throughout, all sorted, all catered to whatever you need. For 3 whole days nobody asks you what's for dinner. You just get to be looked after for once. Little warning: I am a feeder so do come hungry!

A mini photoshoot. Professional images that capture the next chapter version of you. The one who's rested, clear, and standing differently. Yours to use across your business long after you're home.

All activities included. Whatever the 3 days bring, and last time that meant vision boards, hot seats that ran as long as they needed, and conversations that mattered more than any schedule ever could.

Time to unwind, reflect, and recharge. Not squeezed into the gaps. Built into the heart of the whole thing..

This isn't a hotel stay. It's a home away from home, with exclusive access just for us, designed to nurture both you and your business at the same time.

WHAT TO EXPECT...

There's no rigid timetable run with a stopwatch that insists we move on. If anything, last time proved that even looser than I'd planned works better. We move gently between reflection, so you can finally hear yourself think, creativity, so the ideas start flowing again, and action, so you don't just dream it, you start it. And when the room needs more space than the plan allows, we take it.

Here's what you can look forward to.

Getting properly honest about what you want. We start with your vision, not a framework. Last time this one exercise set up everything that followed, because once you know what you're actually building toward, everything else has somewhere to go.

Real, unhurried conversation. Open, honest exchanges with business owners who get it. The kind of room where you can say the quiet thing out loud and feel completely safe doing it.

Hot seats that run as long as they need to. Not squeezed into a 20 minute slot because the schedule says so. Last time, some ran across all 3 days, because that's what the answer actually needed.

Implementation time. Not just talking about what you'll do when you get home. Actually getting it done while you're here, with the headspace to do it well.

A mini photoshoot. Beautiful images that capture the next chapter version of you. Because by day 3 you'll be standing differently, and we catch them on camera.

Fun and flow. Surprise moments, delicious food, long evenings of laughter. The bits that fill your cup back up, which turns out to be the whole point.

By the end, you won't just have rested. You'll have moved something real forward.

You'll arrive running on empty. Phone buzzing. Head full of everyone else's needs. That quiet worry that somewhere along the way you lost the plot of your own business.

That's the version of you that walks in.

Here's the version that drove home last time.

Clear. Not vaguely, properly clear. Knowing what matters, what to let go of, and exactly where to head next. The fog that had been following some of them around for months, lifted within days.

Confident. In their offers, their vision, their next moves. No more second guessing every decision.

Connected. To a small circle of business owners who genuinely got it, and stayed in each other's corner long after the retreat ended.

And reconnected. To themselves. To the version of them that started the business in the first place, before it all got so heavy. They were still in there. We went and found them.

They left with decisions made that a scheduled session never would have reached, hot seats that ran as long as they needed to, and the spark they'd arrived missing.

Three days of slowing down. A business, and a person, that moved forward faster because of it.

A Note from Your Host...

I built a business that looked like success from the outside and was quietly running me into the ground. I know exactly what it feels like to be so busy holding it all together that you forget why you started, and to be too deep in the doing to hear your own thoughts anymore.

What changed everything for me wasn't pushing harder. It was giving myself permission to stop. To step back, breathe, and reconnect with what I actually wanted. That's the whole reason this retreat exists.

I've now watched it work. Vision boards that set up 3 days of real clarity. Hot seats that ran as long as they needed to, not as long as a schedule allowed. People who arrived running on empty and drove home lighter, clearer, and genuinely surprised by what they'd found in themselves.

The Dream Retreat is the space I wish I'd had back then. A place to drop the noise, work out what you've already got, and find your clarity again, surrounded by good food, genuine people, and a ridiculous amount of laughter.

You don't need to have it all figured out. You just need to bring yourself, your ideas, and an open mind and heart. I'll take care of the rest.

Come and join us in the Peak District, and give yourself the space to think again.

I can't wait to meet you there.

SEE YOU IN...
