Imagine this for a moment… You wake up in the Fre

Imagine this for a moment…

You wake up in the French countryside.
Coffee in the garden.
A book waiting for you.
The day unfolding slowly around you.

But this isn’t just about reading.

During the retreat we’ll have countryside walks, sound healing, beautiful dinners and long bonfire conversations… but you’re also completely free to do absolutely nothing at all. No kids calling your name, no laundry to fold, no one asking what’s for dinner. Just you, a book, a quiet garden corner and the luxury of time. Join the activities, the walks, the conversations, or happily disappear into your book for a few hours.

The last retreat we hosted in Marbella turned into something really special: strangers arriving and leaving as friends, incredible conversations around the table, and that feeling of “why don’t we do this more often?”

That’s exactly the spirit we’re bringing to the Loire Valley.

You’ll return home feeling rested, inspired, and a little more connected, to books, to ideas, and to wonderful people.

We still have a few spots left if this speaks to you. Find more info in our bio and feel free to DM us anytime🌷

Marbella Hills reading retreat: ✅
Beach walks, yoga, sound healing, Spanish wine tasting, bonfire dinners, and conversations that make you forget your phone exists. 🍷🔥📚 We came for the books… and somehow left emotionally refreshed, sun-kissed, and 73% more hydrated than usual. 🌞💦

Soft mornings, golden evenings, and the most delicious, nourishing meals made with local fresh produce (and ingredients that were picked just five minutes ago). 🥗🍋✨Stories, on the page and around the table.

Already plotting the next one. 👀✨

Some sunsets make you pause and realize how many times you’ve started over, in new places, with new dreams, under different skies. Reinvention isn’t about changing who you are, it’s about remembering who you’ve always been. 🌅

5K of you?! Stop it, we’re blushing. ☕️💋
Thank you for joining this little world of slow mornings, wild ideas, and women who read and rise. We started with stories, now it’s a whole sisterhood, and we’re just getting warmed up. 🔥

It all started with the Ibiza Fairs we organized t

It all started with the Ibiza Fairs we organized together in the Netherlands: days filled with creativity, “gezelligheid”, and that unmistakable island spirit.

After that, Nathalie @happinesscoach_ followed her intuition and began creating retreats: soulful escapes where women could pause, reconnect, and breathe a little deeper. From Ibiza’s sunsets to Marrakech’s golden light, her path has always been about creating spaces where women meet, share, and feel at home in themselves again.

And now, a new chapter unfolds with The Next Chapter Club, our reading retreats for women who love books, “gezelligheid”, and slow, meaningful moments.
