An Immersive Authentic Self Retreat For Professionals

On the Authentic Self Retreat, Gina will guide you effortlessly through the 3 Step Authentic Self Process; an extraordinary powerful 3 step system to release the masks you wear and the stories you have created – so you can bring ALL of who you are to work and life.

Imagine this.

The sun on your skin, the sea lapping around your ankles and white sandy beaches to lounge around on.

Relaxing. Resting. Releasing. Rebooting. Restoring. Reconnecting.

Your home for 5 days is a stunning Eco-resort in the Algarve, Portugal.

In the middle of a 43-hectare Ecological Farm, and super close to the sea, your home during the Retreat will immerse you in the healing power of nature.

Waking to the sounds of the birds overhead in the Almond and Fig trees. The gentle breeze rustling through the Orange trees.

Fresh fruit and vegetables at your fingertips, for the picking.

And an abundance of wildlife, flora and fauna - you will not want to pick up your phone. Other than to take MILLIONS of pictures.

Yoga. Guided meditation. Good (...EXCELLENT) food. Healing. Personal development. Releasing. Manifesting and planning for your future.

A retreat is a safe haven where you can relax, sleep, work on yourself and eat well, so you can heal your body, hear your own thoughts and look at your life with a bit of space and a fresh perspective.

This is the Ultimate Healing and Personal Development Retreat for professionals.

This Is For You If You Want To

Get away and have some space from your busy life.

Check out the feedback from previous attendees below!

"The retreat was amazing and I feel a real shift has happened inside me."
"I would highly recommend the Retreat to anyone that needs time-out to breathe and is looking for what might be blocking them currently. Gina’s style is one of gentleness, you can be sure you will be in safe hands in a caring and nurturing environment and will get to meet some amazing individuals with which to share your journey and have fun along the way. The location is peaceful, in harmony with the environment and your body will feel just as nourished as your soul, sampling the divine, organic, freshly picked delights from the perma-culture vegetable garden and made with love. Be prepared to emerge a slightly different and better version of yourself!"
"Absolutely one of the best things I’ve ever done! Thank you Gina and all for making it such a fabulous experience. Already looking forward to next years retreat!"
"Reconnecting to Who I Am was the most amazing thing I got from the retreat. I'll be back next year!"
"The retreat was the catalyst I needed to find me and the strength I needed to put my actions forward. There have been a few bumps in the road but I feel stronger now than I have ever done before, to deal with them."
"It's been a massive breakthrough for me being here."
"A life changing, soul exploring, nourishing experience. What I love about you Gina is, I know if I cut you open, you would be authentic right to the very core. You are living proof of authenticity in action. Since getting back my husband says I look 10 years younger. Being authentic and releasing my chains have clearly ironed out my wrinkles."
"Things have certainly been happening since Portugal - massive shift in my thinking! It was amazing. Definitely to be repeated!"
"A week of development and connection in the most beautiful natural surroundings. The balance of being in a completely organic sustainable environment whilst working on myself and my own growth was unbelievably rewarding and I've shifted so much since this retreat towards my true passions and purpose. Thank you Gina for creating this very special space, group and development opportunity."
