Find Peace, Presence, and Power Within

Imagine a space...

Imagine a space where you can breathe deeply, feel alive, and reconnect with yourself and the world around you. A place where you're not just surviving, but thriving. Does that sound good?

I’m inviting you to join me for a transformational retreat at Cucumbi Retreat Center from Friday, September 5–10 in the heart of the beautiful Alentejo countryside. This is your chance to hit the reset button and explore how you want to feel in your body, mind, and life. It’s about reconnecting to the life you truly want to live—one that’s grounded in peace, presence, and purpose.

Tools for Life Beyond the Retreat

This retreat isn’t just a week away; it’s about giving you practical tools to navigate life with more ease, joy, and self-compassion. You’ll learn how to treat yourself with the kindness you deserve—the same kindness you offer others. When you approach yourself with compassion, you open the door to real growth, healing, and transformation. Trust me, starting with kindness is a much faster path to change than any self-criticism could ever be.

Nature as a Healing Companion

Nestled in the stunning Alentejo countryside, Cucumbi is the ideal place to slow down, reset, and reconnect with what truly matters. The 112-hectare property features serene walking trails, a peaceful lake with a pier, and ample spaces to unwind, including a saltwater pool. - The center’s kitchen and restaurant serve nourishing meals, thoughtfully prepared to support your body’s needs and help you feel your best throughout your stay.
