Description

3 days reset transformation retreat

FOR WHOM:  Anyone standing at a crossroads and ready to do the deep work:

  • Professionals burned out and questioning everything
  • People in major life transitions – relocation, career shift, relationship changes, retirement
  • Those who've lost the plot – going through the motions, living someone else's life
  • High achievers feeling empty – success without meaning
  • Anyone ready to break patterns that no longer serve them and step into something truer

THE EXPERIENCE:  This isn't a weekend of passive relaxation. This is active transformation. A combination of ancient wisdom with contemporary coaching methodology to create the conditions for genuine breakthrough.  Working on four dimensions of transformation simultaneously:

  1. BODY – Yoga, breathwork, and medicine dancing to release what's stuck and reconnect with your physical wisdom
  2. MIND – Structured coaching processes to gain clarity, dismantle limiting beliefs, and build new vision
  3. VOICE – Deep listening circles where your truth can finally be spoken and heard
  4. SPIRIT – Medicine dancing ceremonies led by a professional healer to access parts of yourself logic can't reach

About the Host

Hi my name is Elena, born and raised in Italy and then lived in Paris, Washington DC, Rome, Berlin, Tunis . I am an international development expert , worked for major international organizations such as the United nations, the World Bank, across Africa, Eastern Europe, and the US. I have recently relocated from Tunis to Berlin ! Raised 3 trilingual daughters, adopted 3 street dogs, speak 3 language fluently. As a Certified coach I call myself an empowerment and transition coach and these 3 words summarize the very essence of my coaching: grounding, empowering, transitioning. In my jobs with the United Nations, World Bank, and German development cooperation, I focused on creating environments where voices are heard and Community or personal potential is realized, often through assessing needs and tapping into the aspirations of diverse groups or individuals to design meaningful activities and solutions. My focus included social inclusion, empowerment of vulnerable groups, and gender equity. This extensive international work has profoundly shaped how I coach today. I bring the same skills in surfacing underlying needs and aspirations to individual and team development, channeling that same care and engagement into supporting empowering journeys. My practice combines deep listening, structured methodologies, and a steadfast belief in each person's capacity for meaningful growth when their priorities are clear and their voices heard. Being a certified yoga teacher allows me when needed to combine breathing , meditation, mindfulness and yoga practice to my coaching as a means of calming the mind, grounding, finding presence that allows deep discovery processes
