A bold retreat for women who want joy, visibility and new levels of aliveness.
A blend of adventure, movement and powerful identity work that brings your spark back and unlocks your next level.
What if you gave yourself three days that switch you back on?
Three days where you feel alive again.
Three days where you laugh, explore, move, and connect.
Three days that remind you that you are so much more than your to-do list.
This is not a quiet retreat.
This is the retreat for the woman who wants:
• joy in her body
• adventure in her days
• confidence in her voice
• visibility without fear
• and a bigger, brighter version of herself leading the way
You will explore, play and stretch your comfort zone.
You will step into parts of you that have been waiting to rise.
You will practise being bold, being seen and being fully alive.
This retreat calls to women who lead others, and are now ready to lead themselves with more courage, more fun and more presence.
A summer reset filled with adventure, expansion and the kind of energy that wakes your whole system up.
This retreat is for the woman who feels ready to wake something up inside herself.
You want more than rest.
You want momentum.
You want spark.
You want courage in your choices.
You want confidence when you speak and when you walk into a room.
You want a space that shows you who you are when you stop shrinking and start rising.
You may be:
• a woman who leads others and wants to feel more alive in her own life
• a coach or entrepreneur who wants visibility and impact
• a high achiever who lost her spark and wants it back
• someone who is done with shrinking, doubting or waiting for permission
• a woman craving adventure, play and experiences that open new edges
This is for you when you want joy, courage, connection and aliveness to lead your next chapter.
This retreat is not for everyone, and that is intentional.
The Greatness Adventure Retreat asks you to show up for yourself in a new way.
It asks for curiosity, energy and a willingness to stretch.
It may not be the right fit if you want:
• quiet, slow or deeply reflective time
• long stretches of silence or solitude
• emotional release work or therapy-style depth
• a gentle schedule with lots of stillness
• trauma support or crisis care
• to stay inside your comfort zone
• to avoid visibility, movement or trying new things
• a break where you want to hide away and switch off
This retreat invites you to move, laugh, stretch, explore and open new edges inside yourself.
It is bold.
It is playful.
It is designed to switch you back on.
If you want softness, slowness or emotional release, the Spring Surrender Retreat is a better fit.
If you want to feel more alive, more confident and more switched on from the inside out, this is your retreat.

Meet JoJo
I’ve spent more than sixteen years helping women rise into the most powerful version of themselves, and this retreat brings together everything I love, everything I teach, and everything I aim to live.
I’m a Trainer of NLP, Hypnotherapy and Time Line Therapy™, and the founder of the Woman of Influence community. My work is all about deep transformation at the level of identity, a calm confidence, and helping women remember who they are when they stop hiding, stop doubting and step onto their real path.
I learned NLP in immersive environments, and I’ve always believed the deepest breakthroughs happen away from your normal life, in a space that feels safe, alive, and full of possibility. This retreat invites you to stretch your edges, drop old patterns and reconnect with the part of you that is bold, curious and ready for more.
I live in the Spanish mountains with my Tim and our four rescue furbabies. I can’t wait to welcome you into an experience that wakes up every part of you.
Tim is our resident chef, nutritional therapist and the steady grounding and fun energy behind every retreat. He creates fresh, vibrant meals that keep your body strong, your energy lifted, and your mind clear. He brings a calm confidence, a warm presence and a genuine love of looking after people.
When he isn’t cooking incredible meals, you’ll find him sharing stories, laughing with everyone on the terrace and bringing his own sense of adventure into the experience.
Together, we love creating spaces where women feel free, connected, energised and alive.
Spaces where change happens naturally.
Spaces where you feel more you than you have in a long time.
We can’t wait to welcome you to Casa Surrender and support you through three days of joy, courage and next-level expansion.
