Perimenopause Confidence Retreat Dartmoor

Join us!

Join EmpowerHer Confidence Coaches Jo and Amy, and Sara from Breathways, on Dartmoor for our first Perimenopause Confidence Retreat - a space to pause, breathe, and come back to yourself.
This exciting collaboration is for women navigating the shifts of perimenopause, burnout, or that quiet and often infuriating sense that somewhere along the way… you got a little lost.

Confidence Impacts Everything.

Come to recalibrate, to be cared for and to be held by other women who get it. 

Guided by Sara in breath, heat, cold, and deep rest, and Amy and Jo in confidence, neuroscience and midlife transition. We'll reconnect you to your strength, your energy, built around the belief that you are here to thrive, not just survive.

Come as you are. Leave feeling clearer, stronger, and more like you again.
Your future self will thank you for it.

Reconnect with yourself and find your way back to the woman you know is still there.

This weekend is designed for women moving through perimenopause, burnout, or a season of change - when your body and your mind feels different, your energy shifts, and life asks something new of you.

This isn’t about pushing harder. It’s about learning how to work with your body, not against it.

Through breathwork, cold exposure, movement and sauna, you’ll experience simple but powerful practices that support your nervous system, balance your energy, and help you feel stronger, calmer and more in control again.

The Confidence coaching gives you practical mindset tools using positive psychology and focused understanding about what's been happening to your confidence and what to do about it.

This is a deeply held, women’s only space. A place to be real, to soften, to laugh, to share - and to remember you’re not doing this alone.

Across the weekend we’ll weave in nature, intuitive movement, rest, hiking on the moor, and nourishing vegetarian/vegan food prepared by a brilliant local chef. We’ll be based in a place of complete tranquillity on Dartmoor, with private river access, sauna, and wood burners to keep things cosy.

There will be time to connect, to be quiet, to sit by the fire, and to simply be.
You’ll leave feeling clearer, more grounded, and more like yourself again with a deeper trust in your body, mind and where you’re heading next.
