Retreat · Thrive to Perform | 25–27 November 2026 with accommodation

You spend your days giving — to students, patients, teams, families. But no one leads, teaches, or supports well while running on empty. This 2.5-day restorative retreat, held in a private estate less than an hour from central Paris, is for the people everyone else leans on: step out of the role of the one who carries everyone and, for two days, be the one who receives.

PRICE LINE

Clarity — rested, and clear about what actually matters, in your work and beyond it. A practice for pressure — the SSSTOPPPP™ method, ready to use on your hardest days. Strength from adversity — the HEROIC Paradox™, to turn difficulty into resolve, on demand. And a plan that holds — your 10-year action plan, with 30- and 90-day follow-up calls to keep you on track.

Every session is grounded in the 21 psychosocial competencies (PSC) — rooted in the WHO life-skills framework and structured by Santé publique France (2022) — and the SAFE method: Sequenced, Active, Focused, Explicit. Not an escape. A turning point.

Your three days

Wednesday, from 4 PM — Arrival. Welcome and rooms, introduction to the retreat and Guided Surface Work. A private dinner hosted by a majordome, master of the French art of the table, with an introduction to Mindful Eating, the French way. Lights low and quiet by 22:00.

Day One — Self. From self-awareness to self-management to self-care. A dawn walk in the grounds; self-awareness and the Image-Impact experience with an introduction to the 21 PSC; a silent lunch with 3·2·1 journaling; then the SSSTOPPPP™ practice and the HEROIC Paradox™, with Guided Surface Work. Premium dinner at the venue; spa and massage available as an option.

Day Two — The other. From social awareness to social impact and influence. A dawn gong bath; the SSSTOPPPP™ practice revisited, systemic thinking and social awareness; a collective lunch with 3·2·1 reflection; then build your 10-year action plan (or review it, for returning participants), and close.

After you leave

The retreat does not end at the gate. Follow-up calls at 30 and 90 days, so the change holds long after you return.
