Transform your approach to growing your business, in your own way.
Certified Coach Sophie Carefull and Founder of Wild, Jess Hellens, have teamed up to create a transformative Half-Day Business Retreat on Tuesday 18 July 10am-2pm (extra date at bottom of article) at the tranquil and inspirational setting of Artist Residence in Bristol.
The retreat has been carefully crafted to provide you with valuable tools and techniques to elevate your business and will be split into three parts:
Part One
Grounding and visualisation - with Sophie’s guidance in the morning, you'll connect with your most confident self and she’ll help you create a meaningful intention statement that will set you up for the afternoon’s workshop with Jess.
From Sophie:
"As small business owners, particularly one-woman-bands, it's so easy to get stuck in our heads and struggle to see the wood for the trees. We can fall into the trap of overthinking, and then the overwhelm stops us from making meaningful progress on our goals. Taking a step back and removing ourselves from our usual environment (often at home alone with just a dog or cat for company!) is such a powerful way of hitting 'reset' and giving ourselves a fresh perspective on what we need to focus on.
Spending time with fellow self-employed women is also a huge catalyst for inspiration, motivation and confidence! I'm really looking forward to co-hosting this mini retreat day as I know it'll give the business owners who attend a chance to connect back to their big picture vision, and feel clearer about their direction. I love creating spaces where business owners can come together, remember they're not alone, and tune into the courageous and confident part of themselves. I'm excited to help our retreat guests explore their values and set some powerful intentions to lead into the strategy section of the day!"
Part Two
Lunch and connections - networking is a fundamental part of growing a business, but neither Jess or Sophie are fans of ‘forced fun’ so instead you can chat to other attendees over the light, delicious lunch that we'll be treating you to mid-retreat. Vegan and Veg options available.
Part three
Clarity, Confidence, and Action - with Jess’ guidance and expertise you’ll be led through a series of prompts that will help you take a step back and evaluate everything - what’s working? What isn’t? What are your business objectives? What even are business objectives? You'll leave the retreat with a clear plan of action, ready to achieve what you truly desire in your business.
Founder of Wild, Jess Hellens said:
“This is time for you to grow, in the direction that works for YOU. Acknowledging a growth point can be tricky, because it feels icky. You can often confuse them for a point of failure, maybe something didn’t go your way or turn out how you expected it to. But that’s where the magic is. That’s the point where you can make decisions in your business that change the game. And I’m going to help you discover which way to turn next.
Growing pains can also make you feel stuck, or stagnant (my worst fear, honestly) and it can take a lot of time and energy to get back on track when you’re trying to do it yourself. I would say it’s near impossible to truly gain clarity when you’ve no benchmark or accountability. So that’s why I am beyond excited to bring everyone together to help them step into their CEO shoes, stand back and see their businesses from afar.”
July’s event is now sold out but we’re hosting another on Tuesday 12 September.
Remember, your business deserves dedicated time and attention. Take this opportunity to work on, not just in, your business and unlock its full potential.
