Morocco is a magical place and we visit the places that make it so special. Plan on plenty of eye candy and wonderment as we wander the souks in the medina, stop by our favorite shops, go to museums, explore the new town, and bask in the serenity of the desert.
In this retreat, we also focus on how to make your business successful, but we will do it through interactive and fun projects and very creative exercises. We hope you don’t think it’s JUST business as usual! That’s not how we roll! Everything Adele and I do is fun and creative.
For example, we will be creating a beautiful handmade book with interesting papers collected or made by you and they will reflect things like your branding colors and ideas, drawings or paintings that map out your vision, or photo grids that identify your brand messaging. You become a master by studying the greats and we will visit successful great artisans in Marrakech that have used their unique brand voice and secret sauce to make a stamp on the market. Fun activities to help you identify yours will be part of the curriculum we share with you during these mini workshops.
One of best parts of the entire retreat is the other women you meet and inevitably will become friends with. You will be transformed by the connection and experience of sharing ideas, advice, and adventure.
Our retreat starts out with an invitation to daydream your wildest, biggest dreams as we begin our journey in the Atlas Mountains, a lunar landscape hosting glamping tents and star filled skies. The adventure continues as we shift our focus where we will spend the remainder of the trip in a beautiful Riad in the heart of the city and explore the magic of Marrakech.
We can’t wait to welcome you to Morocco!!

CANCELLATION POLICY:
Travel these days can be unpredictable and unfortunately we don't have a crystal ball to say on this day and that you will be 100% safe and that there will be no hiccups involved. Whether it be covid, weather conditions, terrorism, political climate, adverse regulations, health issues, family issues, travel issues, etc., etc, all we can do to protect ourselves as much as possible is by staying aware and taking necessary precautions. Adele and I are as concerned as all of you and we didn't make the decision to offer these retreats lightly, but we feel getting travel insurance, vaccinations, and receiving a negative covid test 72 hours prior to travel [requirements to go on this retreat] are all steps to help mitigate concerns and protect us all in uncertain conditions.
Additionally, Adele and I are monitoring the conditions everyday but due to the involved logistics, we offer NO CANCELLATION POLICY or REFUNDS (except as noted below)
Safety is and always will be our first priority. We will closely monitor all travel conditions and will be communicative about any updates affecting the retreat. Please trust that if conditions in Morocco warrant cancellation of the retreats, we’ve got your back and will refund where appropriate.
However, we do understand that things come up, so should you be unable to attend for any personal reason, (sickness, changed mind, family emergency, your flight got cancelled, the plane is delayed, job, etc.,), even though there are no refunds or cancellation, we are happy to welcome anyone appropriate you find or assist with trying to help you find someone to participate in your place.
We also require you to have travel insurance in place to cover costs such as flight or any other incidentals that we can’t be responsible for.
