Have you ever thought about taking a break from your business to give yourself the time and space to think strategically about your business and what you want to do? Coaching retreats allow you to take time out to reflect and recharge, without the distractions of day-to-day life and business, so you can come back into your business with renewed sense of energy, motivation and inspiration.
You may know by now that I love retreats. I love them because from the moment you book in a retreat, it’s like your world is instantly flipped upside down. Suddenly, everything becomes okay again. You’ve designated time and space for you to stop hustling and breathe for a minute. For the rush of the day-to-day to go on pause so you can get your mind clear and figure out the right direction to go next.
What Are Coaching Retreats?
Just as it sounds, coaching retreats are opportunities to step back from the day-to-day and get in touch with yourself and your business goals.
From a business perspective, coaching retreats offer an opportunity to focus on and think strategically about things that you find difficult to address in chaos of daily life. They enable you to sit back and observe from a new perspective. They inspire you to think differently, reflect differently, and open up new avenues for growth. Depending on the type of retreat you may also learn how to up level certain skills, plan better, and build a wider referral and support network. And all of this mixed in with entrepreneurial masterminding and networking.
From a personal perspective, coach retreats enable you the space to fill up your cup without all the usual distractions (inbox, work, clients, staff, kids, school runs, kids sport, hubby, errands, cooking dinner etc). When you let someone else take care of everything (food, cleaning, itinerary, experiences, accommodation, self-care), you can see what comes forth for you when you just have to show up as you. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Whether it’s an hour of coaching, a day, a weekend, or a week, a coaching retreat is a time specifically set aside to refocus of YOU.
And if you’re like me, at the end you’ll find yourself feeling refreshed and excited to move forward with your business and life.
Benefits Of Coaching Retreats
It’s so easy to get caught up with the hype of social media, TV, and other outside influences. Retreats are designed to help you step away from the constant noise and find your own voice again. So when you come back to your regular life, everything feels different. And better.
Although each person will have a unique experience, there are a few common benefits you can expect to enjoy, such as…
- Connecting with like-minded women and business owners who understand where you’re coming from.
- Learning new insights and ideas to take back home.
- Getting your questions answered by an experienced and knowledgeable coach in an intimate setting.
- Finding the motivation you need to break through obstacles that stand in your way.
- Discovering what holds you back, exploring how it affects you, and figuring out how to get past it.
- Breathing in a new perspective. Sometimes all it takes is breaking out of your usual day-to-day to achieve an epic Aha! moment.
- Dedicated time out to think and plan strategically, to consider “what is possible”, and to realign with your goals.

5 Good Reasons To Book Yourself Into Coaching Retreats This Year
Look, going after your dreams can be the most difficult thing you’ve ever done. And let’s be honest, as a business owner, that’s exactly what you’re doing – going after your dreams.
But sometimes, it can feel too hard…
…failure after failure ⠀⠀⠀
…knockback after knockback
…mindset wobbles
…constant hustle to make ends meet or putting out “spot fires” every day
…everything is just always busy and you dont have a moment to just breathe and reflect
…juggling #allthethings all the time!
Leaving you unsure what you want to do or be in your business, and unable to see a path forward out of the current chaos towards where you want to be.
Getting help to stay focused on that might be exactly what you need to get past the hard times and start enjoying more of the fun and joyful times.
Coaching retreats can be the perfect catalyst to make that happen.
It’s important to remember you’re not alone on this journey of entrepreneurship or life. Other people have made it through tough times to find themselves where they want to be. And a coaching retreat is the perfect place to connect with others on that same path, learn and be inspired by each other, and forge bonds for the future.
Obviously, I think coaching retreats are the best thing for business and personal growth. Not just enjoyable and helpful, but downright necessary.
But if you’re still unsure, here are five more ways mastermind coaching retreats can be a turning point for you in your business:
- A coaching retreat will help you identify the root causes of any problems or challenges that have been affecting your business and personal life.
- You’ll be able to take back control of your life by setting goals for what needs fixing and figuring out how they can get fixed.
- It will give you clarity on what is important in life, which will enable you to focus on those things more effectively at home or at work
- Fill up your cup without the distractions of home, let someone else take care of everything and see what comes forth for you. All mixed in with entrepreneurial masterminding and networking.
- It is an incredibly valuable investment you make in yourself and your business that will pay back dividends for years to come.
If any of these sound like just what you need, then it’s time to book yourself in for a coaching retreat.
How To Find The Time To Go On Retreat
So you’re probably thinking… There is definitely no time for a trip or time out for a retreat.
In your work time you’re seeing clients, managing teams and projects, launching, creating, selling, getting stuff done… there’s very little time for reflection and strategic planning.
Then in your personal time you’ve got kids and errands and family and events and friends and maybe getting your hair done sometime… there’s very little time for you or self-care.
Your calendar controlling your life… unable to see any free time for months on end…
HOWEVER, I invite you to lean into the idea of taking yourself on retreat.
It will all seem too hard to coordinate. Too much hassle to make happen. Almost impossible.
But once you book it… you’ll be amazed at how it all just works and falls into place.
Then, once you’ve been on retreat and experienced all that it can offer you personally and professionally, your rejuvenated and inspired self will propel your life and business forward faster that you ever would without it. And you get a holiday and pampering in the process! #winwin
Need more self-care in your life?

Need space to consider what’s possible?
Do yourself a favour and book yourself a coaching retreat (or 2!) and see what happens. You wont be disappointed.
