Female Founders Retreat

For women-identifying entrepreneurs

A 3-day retreat in June, focusing on collaboration, knowledge sharing, and community building among rising entrepreneurs.

Women often face unique obstacles in business like fundraising disparities, credibility issues, and work-life balance. Conceptualised as a mixture of business and somatic sessions in a woodland retreat centre outside London, this retreat supports entrepreneurs in:

• Accelerating a business
• Making a business sustainable
• Learning wellness techniques to avoid burnout
• Prioritising wellbeing through collaboration and knowledge sharing

Blanche Mulholland - somatic facilitator

Somatic sessions offered during the Female Founders Retreat are designed to introduce the participants to body-based practice that cultivates a sense of well-being and stress-relief to support health in the development of their business. These sessions are deliberately interspersed between business coaching and presentation workshops during the retreat to allow for relaxation, integration and reflection of the material being presented. Shifting out of a more cognitive/ analytical focus and into the sensory experience offered participants the space to explore their personal process of being on retreat.
