Running a business and being a mum is the ultimate juggle. It often feels like you barely have a spare moment to think about something outside those two worlds, let alone go to the bathroom by yourself. Trust us, we get it.

So what we say next might surprise you…

Stop. Take some time out to refresh.

A week-long retreat on an island doing yoga and meditation sounds amazing, yes? But for most of us this is completely out of the question because A) we’ve got kids! and B) we don’t have a week of free time.

But you CAN and SHOULD take a few hours out to recharge.

And what if we also told you that this day included meeting and learning from Lisa Messenger. Yes, THE Lisa Messenger. The incredible entrepreneur and business owner of the Collective Hub is coming to the Central Coast for one-day only to meet with local entrepreneurs and to share her ultimate tips and game plan.

Plus, did we mention the delicious chef-prepared lunch, the stunning magazine-featured location and great conversation that won’t revolve around Bluey or that bill that needs to be paid?

Sounds like a winner, right? Here it is…

On Wednesday, March 2, head along to The Cottage Gardens Studio in Terrigal for ‘Ignite Your Purpose – A Day with Lisa Messenger’.

Learn from Lisa Messenger

Lisa Messenger is the founder and CEO of Collective Hub, an international speaker and best-selling author who’s passionate about challenging individuals and corporations to get out of their comfort zones, find their purpose and change the way they think.

“I can’t wait to visit the Coast to help locals live their best life in 2022 and beyond,” says Lisa. “It has been a rough couple of years but after all my time in business and publishing, I have a few tips to help Coasties bounce back from the pandemic bigger and better than ever. Take time to work on YOU and focus on your goals during our workshop.”

Get set for luxe surrounds

Forget stuffy corporate offices and outdated event spaces, this retreat is being hosted at the stunningCottage Garden Studio in Terrigal. The home was renovated by Michelle Leslie of MLD Design: think Hampton-style decor, billowy pillows, leather lounges, and coastal chic accents. It’s a space that’s guaranteed to have you feeling rested, refreshed, pampered and special.
