3 days of life changing and elevating content
2 nights away in a beautiful seaside retreat location
Nourishing home cooked meals
Grounding and energising somatic sessions
3 days to rewrite your story about selling, showing up and serving your clients.
It’s time to grow a business that supports your impact and your life.
This Retreat is for you if...
You are a freelancer, consultant, coach or independent advisor working with charities, NGOs or non-profits.
And you want to:
feel more confident talking about your services
stop avoiding sales conversations
charge appropriately for the value you provide
grow your business without feeling “salesy”
feel happy being visible in a way that works for you
create a business that supports both your impact and your life
If you run a business serving charities or non-profits, chances are you’ve felt this tension
You care deeply about the work. You believe in what you offer. You know organisations need your support.
And yet…
Selling your services feels mega cringe, pushy and greedy. Showing up online feels terrifying and big headed.
And it’s not because you don’t believe in your work - it’s everything we’ve been taught about what selling is supposed to be.
Sleazy. Grubby. Transactional. Self-interested.
And being more visible makes you a massive show off and you should simmer down a bit - stop wanging on - stop being so full of yourself.
So then you start under-charging and avoiding sales conversations, hoping clients will “just see the value”. You find yourself relying heavily on referrals and over-delivering to prove your worth.
All while wondering: “Why does this part of running a business feel so hard?”
You’re not alone. And the problem isn’t you. It’s the story you’ve been told about selling and showing up.
What If Selling Could Feel Different?
What if selling didn’t feel like persuading or convincing?
What if it felt like:
- having honest conversations
- building and nurturing relationships
- sharing the value of your work with confidence
- inviting the right clients into meaningful partnerships
- creating impact through the services you offer
What if selling could feel…Aligned. Generous. Honest. Human.
Because when selling feels good, everything changes. When you’re clear on the transformation you bring, showing up and sharing is of service.
You stop shrinking. You stop apologising for your value. You start building the business that actually supports your impact, your energy and your life.
Imagine this...
You’re in a conversation with a potential client.
Instead of feeling awkward or hesitant, you feel calm and clear.
You can explain the value of your work easily.
You can talk about your services without shrinking.
You can invite them to work with you confidently.
Not because you’ve memorised a script.
But because you truly believe in the difference your work makes.
Welcome to The Rich & Restored Retreat
A 3-day retreat designed specifically for purpose-driven freelancers, consultants and coaches working with charities and non-profits.
This is a space to step back from your business and reconnect with:
the value of what you offer
the difference your work makes
the kind of business you actually want to run
Together we’ll dismantle the unhelpful stories you’ve inherited about selling and being visible and replace them with a way of selling that feels natural, ethical and aligned.
Because selling well isn’t about pressure.
It’s about clarity, confidence and connection. And its part of being of service to your clients.
You will come away with...
renewed energy
• restorative time away from your business
• reflective exercises, deep conversations and a range of somatic practices to nurture and support you
• nourishing food and beautiful surroundings - with plenty of time to explore the beautiful surroundings (the beach is a five minute walk from the venue)
a completely different relationship with selling and showing up
• language that makes it easier to talk about your work
• confidence to invite organisations and individuals to work with you
• clarity about how you want to grow your business
• renewed energy for the work you care about
a new community of forward focussed business owners
You'll make friends for life, collaborations and partnerships that transform your business whilst having loads of fun. The vibration will be high my friend!
The Retreat is a special place - but don't just take our word for it, here's what past attendees have to say...
I wasn’t expecting to feel so different. I feel like there’s some really positive changes I can and want to make in my life. I feel like I have a new group of very close friends who all get me. It’s a good feeling, it’s one of empowerment, one of renewed energy and one of belief. I never thought I would come away with this from the retreat – it was a very special place.
Jenny
I cannot recommend this 2-night, 3-day, event enough. If you’re a fellow freelancer looking to reconnect with your purpose and see what can happen when you step out of your routine, you’d love it.
Emma
I hugely enjoyed being away at Florence House by the sea, taking time for me and my business, trying new things, eating lots of delicious food, and just generally having 'a lovely time' as became my mantra! Highly recommend.
Anna
Learning was balanced with genuine downtime featuring yoga, coastal walks, sound baths and easy conversations around the fire. By the end of the three days I really did feel #richandrestored.
