Reinvention in Motion: Reflections from Manchester, London & Surrey

It's been a busy old time on the Reinvention Retreats front in October with three unforgettable retreats in close succession. We marked World Menopause week with our retreat in the heart of Manchester, in partnership with menopause coach Emma Neville, then held a corporate wellbeing workshop in London, and then it was a hop and a skip to the serene landscapes of Surrey for a talk for female founders at The Women's Chapter event at Pennyhill Park.
Each gathering was a bold invitation: to pause, reflect, and organise what’s possible.
In a world that rarely slows down, we gave our guests something radical – permission to pause. And by that, I don't just mean a break from the noise, but a confidential space to reconnect with your inner compass. Whether they arrived feeling stuck, curious, or quietly hopeful, they left with clarity, courage, and a renewed sense of direction. When was the last time you gave yourself permission to pause? In the Reinvent Like A PRO way, pausing means consciously rooting yourself in the present, without rushing to decide how to fix any challenges, but just observing and journalling how you feel. It can be a ground-breaking exercise.
The Reinvent Like a PRO Formula
At the core of each retreat is our signature framework: Reinvent Like a PRO – a neuroscience-inspired journey through:
Pause: to consider how you feel and how far you have come, letting go of outdated roles, beliefs and expectations
Reflect: guided exercises to explore identity, values, joy and desires
Organise: bold action plans rooted in authenticity and emotional flexibility, and a commitment to accountability
We shared our breakthroughs over tea, and mapped out new chapters.
I believe in the PRO formula whole-heartedly, I even have it engraved on the bracelet I wear daily and am considering a tattoo - watch this space! It also forms the framework for my next book which will publish next year.
Why the Reinvent Like A PRO formula works
• PRO Prevents knee-jerk reactions: You will take a more considered approach to life.
• PRO Reduces anxiety and overwhelm: You will stop obsessing over other people’s opinions or actions, knowing you’re doing what is right for you.
• PRO Boosts self-trust: You will learn to rely on your own boundaries and values instead of seeking external validation or people pleasing.
• PRO Improves relationships: In being curious, you give people space to be themselves and avoid resentment – which often leads to more authentic connections.
• PRO Gets things done: You will move forwards effectively and in line with your true self.
