Connect, rest, reset
It all starts with you
Life is busy. Time is short. I curate inspiring luxury retreats that allow you to pause, rest and immerse yourself in the healing power of nature.
Held in unique locations my retreats invite you to take time out for yourself and make genuine in-person connections. In an age of digital overload and disconnected communities this has never been more important.
Held at luxury properties across the world retreats focus on wellness practices and rituals, food and nutrition, movement, reconnection, creativity and unique adventures to unexpected places.
I also organise corporate retreats and staff incentives designed to take busy teams and C-suite executives out of the office environment, encouraging team building in inspired locations.
Give yourself the gift of time and join my next retreat.

Why Marrakech?
Marrakech is a city best experienced beyond the obvious. This retreat is designed to take you beneath the surface to places you've never visited before. Rather than simply staying in a beautiful hotel and ticking off the sights, I'll introduce you to the people, places and traditions that give the Red City its soul.
That means meeting local makers and uncovering hidden corners of the Medina alongside experiencing Moroccan culture in ways most visitors never do. With every detail thoughtfully curated by me, you’ll enjoy privileged access to authentic experiences, meaningful connections and a different perspective on this fascinating city. Balanced with daily wellness practices at the riad, there'll be plenty of time to unwind, indulge and connect with an intimate group of guests. This is Marrakech beyond the guidebooks: personal, immersive and full of unexpected moments.
Nobu Riad is a 19th-century former merchant’s home that blends Japanese minimalism with Moroccan artistry. The six-suite private property is located near Jemaa El Fna Square and the historic Medina. In this luxury five-star property guests will enjoy spacious living areas, unique suites, a rooftop pool terrace offering panoramic views of the city and the Atlas Mountains and a traditional hammam spa. The interior features custom tiles and handcrafted plaster walls, showcasing Marrakech’s artisanship and wabi-sabi philosophy.
“I came back from the retreat feeling like I had made a friend Jo. She’s warm, kind and sociable and set the tone for the whole trip.
I’d been looking to book a retreat for some time but couldn’t find what I wanted between the luxury spa and intensive yoga offering. Then I found this.
This was a perfect mix of wellness, amazing walks, on-tap access to a remarkable pool and sauna - all set in the most spectacular scenery
in a glorious hotel.”
