I Fantasise About Disappearing for a Week... Just to Think
Not Bali. Just space. Just me. Just a breath.
It hit me last week while pouring my second coffee…
My to-do list was still talking at me. And without thinking, I typed ‘solo retreats near London’ into Google. Because after a full six months, intentionally full but full all the same, I needed a pause that didn’t require a PowerPoint!
I didn’t want spa treatments, but silence.
I didn’t want luxury. I wanted a whiteboard.
I didn’t want to escape my life. I just needed space to hear my own thoughts.
If you’re nodding, I know exactly who you are.
You’re sharp, but you’re tired
You’re the kind of woman who knows how to lead.
You’ve built the thing. Grown the client base. Held the space.
And still, there’s a growing part of you that’s whispering:
“This isn’t sustainable.”
“I don’t even know what I think anymore. I’m too busy responding to everything else.”
So forget about another marketing sprint.
What you need, really, is a moment to step out of the noise you accidentally built around yourself.
Sound familiar? Let’s zoom in.
Let me guess:
You keep re-opening the same Google Doc hoping inspiration will strike.
You move client calls around but never reclaim that time for yourself.
You fantasise about disappearing for a week, not to escape your life but to finally hear your own thoughts without interruption.
You jot down “circle back on that idea” in your Notes app but by the time you do, the spark is gone and you can’t remember what felt important.
You sit in the car after school drop-off, not rushing to drive off, just needing five quiet minutes with no one asking, pinging, or pulling at you.
If that stings a little, good. It means we’re close.
Time to admit it
Here’s the truth most high-capacity women won’t say out loud:
We don’t fear hard work. We fear being so full of other people’s noise that we can’t hear what we actually want anymore.
You don’t need to run away. You need rhythm.
You need a smarter container for your brilliance. One that doesn’t stretch you thinner just to survive another season.
And no. This isn’t about stepping out of your life.
It’s about shaping one that holds you, even in the busiest season
What if it could feel like…this?
Imagine what it could feel like to:
Wake up and know exactly where your energy’s going and what’s not getting airtime today. (No mental load. No second-guessing).
Have your business stay in motion without you needing to be on every minute. (No pings. No panic. Just smart structure behind the scenes).
Close out July already holding your first September move, with space, not scramble.(Because you’ve already cleared the fog).
Lead in a rhythm that feels like breath, not just function, where your capacity isn’t constantly maxed. (More room. More results. More you in it.)
That kind of leadership doesn’t come just from willpower. It comes from structure that fits. From rhythm that breathes. From permission to move like the version of you that’s already ready.
The reset, not the retreat
You don’t need a spa day. You need a system that holds you back.
