The Antidote to Overwhelm
One doesn’t have to look far to find all sorts of tools to help manage stress. The list of gadgets, apps, subscriptions, toxic positivity gurus, and lifestyle advice is long and filled with snake oil salesmen. Unfortunately, they all miss the point - more is not the solution. Gaining back a small bit of personal sanity requires a simple, yet very effective approach: stop doing so damn much.
We’re not proposing a factory reset of your entire life. Start small - try a weekend away from your normal grind. The subtle, yet transformative clarity you need comes from hitting the off button on the to-do list autopilot. We can’t fix everything that ails your life, but we can give you a place to break out of a rut. And it turns out that a day or two the perfect length of time for some mission-critical self care - the first step is taking the time & joining the supportive company of like-minded women.
A proper fire requires space and oxygen before it can warm those around it. This is your chance to tend to your flame.
Gifting Pause
We all deserve a pause. Each Petite Pause we will have a spot for someone who REALY needs it, on the house and in one of our shared spaces. If this is you or someone else you know, please send us a note, their full contact info and why they need a pause and we will pick someone prior to the retreat. We are a small team, so please have patience with our reply. Our team will review submissions prior to the retreat and be in touch if selected.
