Get More Clarity and Focus. Design that Exciting New Direction you KNOW is Waiting for You and Your Business.

This is EXACTLY what you need right now. Time and space to dream, envision, plan, reset and REACH into a bigger, more fulfilling, more aligned and authentic future that’s filled with all the possibilities of your heart’s desire (like, really, you CAN have what you want and we wanna help you find what that is!).

These women have all experienced the magic of The REACH Retreat

What I thought was "unachievable" is now totally within my reach!

I really wanted clarity for my business and to know where my role fit going forward.

Now I have a plan. I have a vision and I have the process that can take what I thought was just impossible, and make it possible... and all within a timeframe as well!

Yvonne Shepherd Women’s Fitness Adventures

I’m really excited to have a clearer vision of my business!

I needed to look at my business from the outside rather than being in it all the time!

The REACH Retreat has enabled me to see my business in a way I’ve never seen it before. I have a new excitement for my business.

Julie Hammond Anatomy Trains Australia & NZ

It’s so important to take time away from your business…

I was at a crossroads and really needed some direction.

The REACH framework gave me a vision and a path forward and helped me really understand what I wanted my life to look like.

Tracey Bode Zyteq

REACH has been transformational for me!

I’d been static for a while without goals.

Without the REACH process I would never have been able to conceptualise the plan and dream that I have for my business now.

REACH gave us a chance to take a breath and really look at where we go from here…

Amazing women who you very quickly form very close and intimate relationships with.

I signed up for the REACH Retreat on the recommendation of a previous REACHer who had a fantastic experience. This was the first thing I'd done for myself in a long while. I had a sense. My intuition told me that I had to go, and it wasn't wrong.

There are so many benefits. Not only in the teachers and the learnings but also in the other amazing women with whom you very quickly form close and intimate relationships. You now sense that they will be lifelong friendships with these people you didn't even know beforehand.

REACH offered us an opportunity to take a breath, take a moment out of the business and look at where we go from here and what we are doing.

If you're thinking of coming to REACH Retreat, just do it..

Michelle French,

I knew I needed to think about things differently!

I saw the changes in the women who went last year; I wanted that for me!

I knew that I needed a change. I knew that I needed to do something different and to think about things differently. I was looking for a transformation.

The most important part has been having space, pause and not being distracted by all that happens in my day to day life.

I’ve faced some fears and uncomfortableness, but I’ve leaned into it, and it feels exciting. The small micro-adjustments I've made have set me on a different path.

Fiona Keary Style Liberation

I couldn’t think as BIG as I’m now thinking!

Coming to Hawaii for REACH Retreat changed everything for me.

I knew I wanted to take my business to the next level, but I didn't know the steps to take to make that happen.

I couldn’t think as big as I’m now thinking if I stayed back in Australia. The destination and being around amazing people was such a big part of me being able to think bigger.

Saying " I want to come to Hawaii" has enabled me to think bigger and BE bigger in my goals and direction.”

Tasha Jennings,
Conceive Baby

I signed up for REACH as something “for me”!

I wanted to get clear on what I wanted and how the business and my vision fit together.

When I signed up for REACH Retreat, it was something for me. Because I wanted to get clear on what I wanted and how the business and my vision fit together.

I wanted to put myself first. And this is the first time in all of my life that I have gone… ‘I'm spending money on me and this is just for me.’ The business is such a big part of me, and being here helps me make sure that it's still serving me and what I want.”

Chantel Gilbert

Allowed me to be in “my space”

It’s been enriching. I’ve grown personally.

One week here in beautiful Hawaii has allowed me time and space to think.
You know, I don't have to think about family. I don't have to think about work. I don't have to think about the everyday things that I have to do (which is more than a hundred things all the time!).

REACH Retreat has just allowed me to be in my space and think about what it is that I REALLY want and what I need to do to work towards that vision. It's been enriching for me because not only have I learnt a lot, I've also grown personally.

Helena Ung

It’s been SO worth it!

After 8 years, I’d lost the passion for my business.

I decided, “this is my dream, and if I don’t do it now, I might not ever!” And I really needed these five days to concentrate on me and my business... and it’s been SO worth it!

You’ve been in business for a few years and you’ve had some great success.

You’re a self-starter and you’ve worked hard.  

And when you can get the time (which is rare these days), you realise there are still so many more things you want to achieve.  

You feel a rush of excitement as you think abou the potential that exists in your busines. Because you can see it... but it's just past your reach. 

So, you ask... “How can I possibly do THAT?!”  

"There is so much that I'm already doing and I just need to have like-minded people to bounce ideas off to help me get more clarity."

Or maybe you just can’t get the time or focus to even get clear on what “THAT” is!  

Like one HerBusiness member who shared with me...

“I want to bring a renewed energy to my business and learn what is holding me back from being able to take it to the next level. 

Next level for me is ensuring a healthy and sustainable income stream that supports my staff and myself, and allows me to have work/life balance."

Can you relate?

Running a business… especially a busy one like yours, can feel like a marathon…  

And you can get tired and sometimes even lost along the way!  

That’s why you need to regularly give yourself space to refresh, reset and recharge! 

Because stopping, and taking the time for YOU to dream and fall in love with your business again, is one of the BEST financial decisions you can make!

When you have clarity and focus, nothing can stop you!

That's why...

We would love YOU to join us.

You, me and a small group of like-minded businesswomen sharing a 5-day all-inclusive experience to REACH new goals and BREAKTHROUGH to even more success... all in a stunning luxury resort in Hawaii!

When you join us for the HerBusiness REACH Retreat, you will be part of a small and select group of women business owners who will spend five days together in one of the most beautiful places on Earth, learning the practical 5-step process to re-imagine, re-engineer and REACH a new level in your business.  

This is where you will get that much-needed time for YOU.  

You'll step out of the day-to-day hustle and bustle and get a new, clear and more inspired perspective on what you want for your business AND how to get it.

 More clarity, time to think clearly, the right next steps, and connection to a vision that inspires and compels you. 

"Making the leap to create what we really want requires a mental leap first."


"I have a clearer vision of what I want and where my life is going to be in the future and what our business is going to look like."

"I'd fallen out of love with my business. I hadn't stopped for 10 years. I knew I couldn't afford not to do this."

"I wanted to take a pause and re-evaluate where we were going as an organisation. But mostly I wanted to stop for me."

Inspiration and Renewal... 

Just imagine yourself experiencing this…  

When we arrive, you will have some time to get settled into your beautifully-appointed room and wander the picturesque grounds… the ocean just a stone’s throw away.  

Then it’s time to say Aloha to your fellow Retreat participants at a special Welcome session followed by cocktails or mocktails and a traditional Haleo Luau and celebratory dinner.  

It’s here you will begin to get a sense that, by the end of these 5 days, these women will become your friends, supporters and cheerleaders, for life.  

Because this is not your usual event.  

This is a special gathering that goes beyond what you might have experienced before.  

At some point during these 5 days you will feel this shift too.  

The shift from feeling like you’re part of a “program” to feeling more like you’re sharing an experience with your “ohana” (your family). And feeling the shift that's imminent for your business.

2017 REACH Retreat Attendees

Each morning, we will meet for our morning ritual to prepare ourselves mentally, physically and mindfully for the day ahead. Breathing in the morning Mana (Mana is a life energy that flows through all things) as we journal, reflect, refocus and open ourselves to new learnings before heading to a healthy breakfast.

Mornings at the REACH Retreat

Because to look after your business… you need to look after you. And that’s a BIG part of what will happen at the HerBusiness REACH Retreat.  

This is YOUR time to rejuvenate. To reconnect with what you want to create.  

After a glorious morning and a leisurely breakfast, it will be time to meet up in the Diamond Head meeting room.  

Here is where you will find a new perspective (and a new plan!) for your business.  

The journey you will take over the next 5 days is one that has been designed from beginning to end to help you REACH your business goals… with time built in for you to enjoy this magnificent island along the way.

REACH Retreat - REACH Process


The REACH Process Helps You Get Where You Want to Go...

The REACH process unfolds over the 5 days we are together, with a mix of study and learning, practical processes and exercises, discussions and inspiration.  

This is a life-changing 5 days for your business, which takes you away from your daily grind so you can really think clearly and reach for new goals.  

Each day we explore a new dimension of the 5-part REACH process...

Reflect

Day One: Reflect
Today is all about becoming present…

As we say Aloha we acknowledge where you are today. Because moving forward starts with knowing where you are now, we shine a light on the journey that got you to this point. You get time to see things as they really are right now, to acknowledge the current reality and to bring your whole self to this experience.  

This day is about doing a business audit - inspecting your business and looking back. What's worked? What do you need to keep? What's not working? What do you want to stop?

Because moving forward takes making the time to Pause and recalibrate. Before the day is through you’ll create your ‘Here and Now’ map so that you have a strong foundation to launch from, as you start to design your future.

Envision

Day Two: Envision
Today is all about looking ahead to the unlimited possibilities available to you…

Today you start to create the ultimate picture of the life and business you want. This is your permission to dream and reach for the stars as you clarify a new vision. You'll reconnect with your inspiration. Just like the Hawaiian Goddess Pele, known for her passion and power, destroys the old to create the new, so too will you harness and focus your passion, enthusiasm and attention towards the new future, the “prime dream” you wish to create. Breaking through old ways and expanding on what is possible for you. This day is about creating your big vision and your Strategic Plan.

Actualise

Day Three: Actualise
Today is a powerful day where we move into Action…

Knowing where you want to go is one thing… but how do you get there? It takes a level of personal power to make things happen — a level of boldness. 

And it takes a solid business plan. During this part of the REACH Process you will start to create your 'Realisation Map'… this is where you’ll work on the plan for your “prime dream” and map out just how you're going to make it happen.  

This is unlike any plan for your business you’ve ever done before and it could be the missing ingredient you’ve been waiting for.  

Because when you connect your intention with your vision, you get a powerful clarity about exactly what you need to do next… and a confidence and enthusiasm to do it!

REACH Process - Connect

Day Four: Connect
Today you’ll discover how to connect to the people, strengths, resources and insights you need as you step into action and begin REACHing toward your vision.

This is a powerful day to assimilate all you’ve Reflected on and Envisioned and helps you tap into the energy and awareness you need to move your Actualise plans into momentum.

Through a series of exercises and insights, you connect to your vision and your message, as well as the resources, people and situations at your disposal to support you to REACH further and step more fully into your heart’s desire!

You also connect to what might be holding you back. Because when we dream bigger and reach further, our resistance and uncertainty can flare up. This is normal and there are some simple, yet powerful things you can do to move forward with ease and excitement, feeling connected and confident and READY to REACH!

Hero

Day Five: Hero
Today is all about YOU...

Today, you start to create the ultimate picture of the life and business you want. This is your permission to dream and reach for the stars as you clarify a new vision. You'll reconnect with your inspiration.

Today is about passion and power, destroying the old to create the new.

It's about creating a way of being and stepping into the new you that will realise the goals and dreams that you've created this week.

Today, you harness and focus your passion, enthusiasm and attention towards the new future, the “prime dream” you wish to create. Breaking through old ways and expanding on what is possible for you.

This day is about creating the structures that will hero your new vision..

One Magic Moment After Another...

And all along the way you will experience one magical moment after another…  

From cocktails and mocktails at sunset…

2017 HerBusiness REACH Retreat

To quiet times for reflection, where you can find your way to the water’s edge…

To eating some amazing food and enjoying the famous Hawaiian hospitality and culture…

Celebrating the Journey

At the end of the Journey it’s time to celebrate!  

You’ve come so far in just a short time.  

Looking back at the woman who arrived you can see how this precious space you’ve given her has brought about a transformation!  

You’re re-energised.  

You’re inspired.  

You’re clear about “where to from here” and you feel more connected to your purpose than you have been in years.  

And you’re ready to go into action!  

It truly feels GREAT to have given yourself this gift.  

We celebrate that gift with a gorgeous lunch at Ray’s on the Bay where you will sip on cocktails and enjoy a Hawaiian feast. We began with Aloha (welcoming in the Divine Breath) and now we end with Mahalo (gratitude) as we farewell our REACH family and give thanks.  

And then it’s time to head home, clear, confident and with a map and a plan for reaching your goals and achieving your vision.

How to Apply...

Coming on a journey like this is as much about the people who travel with you, as it is about the road you take.  

So I need to make sure everyone who comes along is going to support making this an awesome experience.  

I owe it to the group to ensure we strike that balance of the right energy and focus and presence… and that each person will be committed to the REACH process.  

I also owe it to you. My goal is for this to be EXACTLY what you are looking for right now, to help you grow and thrive in your business.  

One Thing Before You Apply...

As you can tell from what we’ve got planned, this is a really special experience.  

And you know that making all this happen — including all your accommodation and meals and special outings takes a lot to put together…  

So it’s an expensive event.  

And it’s not for everyone.  

But if you know the value of taking some time out to completely recharge in body, mind and spirit… and what that can mean for your life and your business… then you’ll also know how valuable this precious time will be for you.  

My advice to you, even if you’re just thinking about it, is to apply now. Because this is only for a select few and places will fill fast.  

We are keeping our numbers small and intimate, so you know you’re going to get a lot of special care and attention during our time together.  

So with that in mind, I’ve included the link below to apply.

Once you’ve filled out the application, I will be in touch.  

I so hope you will join me.  

I’m putting my heart and soul into this retreat and I’d love to share it with you.  

Here’s to doing what you love,

Suzi Dafnis CEO, HerBusiness
