What if you can holiday AND grow your business?
We’ve made it to the first week of January—how’s it feeling so far? For so many of us, the start of the year can feel like being hit by a wave. There’s pressure to have everything planned, to-do lists piling up, and that underlying voice whispering: you need to do more.
But what if this year, we chose something different?
When Laura and I started planning 2025 for ourselves and Blue Spaces, one thing stood out: the need for space. Space to step back, recharge, and refocus on what truly matters.
That’s where the idea for The Blue Spaces Business Retreat was born. A Working Holiday for Entrepreneurs and Self-Employed Women to Build Thriving, Sustainable Businesses Without Burnout.
We’re creating the retreat we both needed at pivotal moments in our lives—a retreat designed to help you reset, reconnect, and move forward with clarity.
Why This Retreat Matters to Us
Nikita’s Story:
Five years ago (or more, let’s be honest!), I was running a business, managing a team, and constantly juggling everything from strategy meetings to last-minute crises. I was completely burnt out.
I knew I needed a break, but the idea of stepping away felt impossible. When I finally booked a yoga retreat, I ended up working half the time anyway—checking emails, dealing with urgent requests, and feeling like I wasn’t truly “there.”
What I really needed wasn’t just a retreat; it was a space where I could recharge without anxiety, make progress in my business, and feel less alone. I would have absolutely loved to have a supportive community of women who got it—other CEOs and entrepreneurs who understood the highs and lows of running a business around me.
Laura’s Story:
For me, the hardest part of building my personal brand as a yoga teacher and personal trainer was how isolating it felt. I was so passionate about what I was doing, but it was exhausting doing it all alone—figuring out pricing, marketing, and how to grow without burning out.
What I wanted most was a sense of community. I needed to connect with like-minded women in the wellness space who could share their journeys and support mine. And I needed space—real, focused time to think clearly, plan intentionally, and work on my business without constant distractions.
The Retreat We Wish We’d Had
We created The Blue Spaces Business Retreat because we’ve lived through those moments—of burnout, isolation, and feeling stuck in survival mode.
This retreat is everything we wish had existed back then. It’s a space to reset, recharge, and make real progress—not just in your business, but in how you feel about your work and your life.
This isn’t just a yoga retreat or a work retreat—it’s both. A unique blend of rest, creativity, and professional growth designed for self-employed women who are ready to thrive, not just survive.
