I am woman Retreat 2027
Brittany, France | 6 – 10 April 2027
5 days in Northern Brittany, a few steps away from the beach of Port Blanc
I am thrilled to announce my first I Am Woman Retreat, to be held next Spring at the stunning venue of HJEM.
HJEM is Danish for home, and I can honestly say that every time I have visited or held retreats at this venue, I instantly resonate with its name.
I can’t quite put my finger on what makes this such an extraordinary space. I feel it is a combination of the land, the sea, the stone, the buildings and the intentional energy that has been lovingly placed into every corner.
I’m delighted that Karin, “Mama HJEM”, will be joining us. She is without doubt the secret ingredient; her spirit and wisdom infuse the space with a unique magic that can only be felt firsthand.
This retreat is offered as a gift to yourself.
A space where you can enjoy daily restorative practices such as yoga, breathwork and meditation, as well as optional invigorating ocean swims, a trip to the local flower farm, forest therapy and more.
My intention is to ensure there is plenty of downtime to rest, wander, laugh, share and simply be; creating space for your mind, body and spirit in a way that feels nourishing and non-demanding.
The theme of I Am Woman will be woven throughout our time together, offering the opportunity to explore our own unique expression of womanhood, the wisdom we carry and the gifts that emerge when women gather together in community.
With the ocean as our backdrop, a sauna on site and the fabulous Marine as our personal chef, I sense this will be far more than just a retreat.
It will be a chance to create memories that last a lifetime.
An intentional sanctuary
Hjem, once a cherished pension de famille, has a storied past. Families would gather here for summer vacations, sharing meals, stories, and dreams. This tradition of connection and community continues to this day.
The house is just a moments walk from a private beach, daily sea swims are a really special part of the days on retreat.
Your stay will be in either the historic main house or the newly renovated annexe.
Each room, whether single, double, or triple, is a tranquil retreat. The Nordic-inspired decor blends seamlessly with Hjem’s timeless elegance. You have the option of single, double and triple rooms all with top quality mattresses and bedding.
The bedrooms are sleep sanctuaries to rest, relax and restore. They are individually decorated in a pure Nordic style, aligned with the history of HJEM.
Delicious local seasonal cuisine
We will have our wonderful local chef Marine on site, she is also a really integral part of our retreat.
She has roots in the soil of Brittany and you will taste, smell and feel her passion for sustainability, seasonality and quality.
Marine will prepare the most delicious, seasonal, vegetarian meals from the local area to keep you nourished on retreat. All organic and local food, dietary requirements can be accomodated.

I Am Woman
At the heart of every day is the I Am Woman Circle; a guided journey of reflection, teaching, journalling, meditation and heartfelt conversation. Together, we will explore what it means to live as a woman with greater awareness, courage and self-trust. To gently reclaim the parts of ourselves we may have silenced, hidden or abandoned, whilst celebrating the extraordinary woman you are.
