Nourish & Play: The Grown-Up Playdate You Didn’t Know You Needed

Nourish & Play: The Grown-Up Playdate You Didn’t Know You Needed

A weekend of creativity, cooking, and connection — because joy is the best kind of self-care.
It’s easy to get caught up in the doing — the giving, the organising, the showing up for everyone else. But what if, just for one weekend, you gave yourself permission to slow down, play, and be completely taken care of!

Nourish & Play is a women’s weekend retreat designed to help you refill your cup through creativity, movement, and meaningful connection. Think gentle restorative yoga and tai chi under gentle sunlight, laughter around a pit fire, hands deep in clay, immersing yourself in a cooking class, and stillness beneath a century-old fig tree.

This retreat isn’t about perfection — it’s about presence. You’ll be guided by a team of compassionate facilitators through mindful movement, art therapy, meditation, and culinary play. Between sessions, you’ll have space to rest, chat, and simply be.

As the weekend unfolds, you’ll rediscover what it feels like to move with ease, to create without judgment, and to connect from the heart. You’ll leave not only refreshed, but re-energised — with a lighter body, a fuller heart, and a reminder that joy is deeply nourishing.

This retreat is for you if you’re ready to...

Join us for a weekend that feels like a breath of fresh air — a grown-up playdate where you’ll be reminded that the most beautiful parts of you come alive when you stop rushing and start creating.

Leave the to-do list at home.
Bring your curiosity, your softness, and your sense of wonder.
We’ll take care of the rest.

Unwind with a professional massage to release tension and restore balance.

Have fun playing with clay art therapy with Kerri (no experience required) to tap into your inner child and delve deeper into what is held deep within your soul.

Create Colourful, flavour-packed dishes (no experience required) using real ingredients and a dash of essential oils – and discover how fun, nourishing and simple healthy cooking can be.

With gentle guidance (no prior experience required) learn the ancient art of tai chi, a practice that you can do for the rest of your life, regardless of age, gently lubricating each and every joint in your body with gentle movement for healthy longevity.

Gather under the stars for a night of meaningful conversation and personal reflection with like-minded women.

All-Inclusive, Nourishing Meals, accommodation and workshops

Enjoy delicious, nutrient-dense meals designed to support your mind, body, and gut health.

    What have you dreamed you could do?

    Write a book? Move into a dream job or a new career? Run a marathon?
    Does that dream seem too big? Too hard? Or so far out of your comfort zone that you are stuck?
    Are you procrastinating on your dream? Or, don’t feel you have enough time…
    Do you doubt yourself to the point of either not following your dreams, or downsizing those dreams?

    Well, you are not alone!

    The hardest part of achieving a goal is having the confidence,
    resources, courage and support to continue with this dream.
    That’s why I created my Life Choices Membership Coaching Program.

    Whether you’re facing personal challenges, professional shifts, or major life transitions, this workshop will equip you with insights and actionable steps to move forward with clarity and strength.
    Date and Time: Every 1st and 3rd Wednesday of the month, 7pm to 8pm (Brisbane, Qld time)
    Location: Online via Zoom
