REST, CREATE, AND SEE YOUR LIFE CLEARLY
L’Aventure Française
Eight days in France!
September 24 – October 4, 2026
You’ve built something real. A career, a family, a reputation people rely on. Your days run on your capability, and most of that capability goes to everyone else. Somewhere in the fullness, the part of you that dreams and creates went quiet. You sense there's more waiting, if only you had the space to find it.
That space is closer than it feels.
WHAT BECOMES POSSIBLE
Eight days away changes what you can see.
You’ll cultivate creative energy, bring buried insight into the light, and learn to sustain both once you’re home.
Women leave this retreat with more energy for their work and their people, a clearer sense of what they want next, and a steadier belief in their own worth.
The shift lasts because you build it yourself, with tools you keep.
Connect in Paris
You’ll live in a beautiful flat with a small circle of women, and I’ll lead the way. We explore the city by metro and on foot, through museums, historic corners, neighborhoods, and the odd little shops most visitors never find. The food is extraordinary. Everything from your first morning is planned, so you get to receive it all with an open heart.
Experience the Countryside
From Paris, we take the train southwest to an exquisite retreat center, where the pace slows all the way down.
After breakfasts of our host, we walk into the village, gather from the gardens and lanes, and make things with our hands.
The women who host us cook with warmth and care. They serve us in their charming stone country house down a lush path, where we are greeted by their sweet dog.
This is where the stimulation of Paris settles, deep conversations open up, and your clearest insights arrive.
It looks like, and feels like, living inside a French painting.
Join Rochelle for a life-changing, transformative Retreat —
in Paris and the heart of France!
My greatest delight is supporting great women to have life-changing experiences where they connect to their hearts, reignite their spirits, experience remarkable new ways to create, and discover their paths to true fulfillment. And this retreat is truly special! It’s designed to be an unforgettable, life-changing experience.
I’m so happy to be returning to France with another small group of fabulous women, after having lived in Paris and spent time in France many times in my life.
All of that prepared me to create a retreat that shares my favorite places in Paris, and then moves to the gorgeous countryside where we rest, play, create, explore, savor beauty, and I can guide each woman to make deep personal discoveries.

HOW THE RETREAT WORKS
At typical workshops insight can fade within weeks.
Rochelle’s retreats hold because she combines reflection with expression, and starts the work before you even arrive.
Your experience begins before you pack.
You’ll have a private coaching session with Rochelle, to identify and learn about your point on the Enneagram, so you arrive already knowing yourself more clearly.
Group calls introduce you to the other women, so the circle feels bonded from day one.
The structure is proven and gentle, and it meets you wherever you are this year.
The group itself becomes part of the process.
These experiences draw a particular kind of woman: Accomplished, emotionally generous, honest.
Participants consistently say the other women were one of the most unexpected gifts. Something shifts when you’re seen and reflected back by people who understand the life you've built and the questions you’re carrying.
And the structure keeps working after you leave.
IN THEIR WORDS
“Before this retreat, I had no clear path forward. Now I am stronger in my decision-making and making sure I take care of myself.” — C.S.
“Rochelle's confidence, flexibility, and knowledge gave me a feeling of security and care while I was in a country where I didn't speak the language. She created conditions where I could relax and really take in what was offered.” — D.H.
“Before this retreat I felt overwhelmed by my over-active brain. Now I have a personal framework to assess my options and make choices that are best for me.” — M.L.

QUESTIONS WOMEN ASK
Do I need to be artistic? No art background is needed. The creative work is a doorway to insight, and I guide every step.

What about food needs? All meals in the country and your Paris breakfasts and lunches are covered, and we gladly accommodate dietary needs.
How physical is it? Expect a lot of walking and riding the Metro in Paris, and a gentler pace in the countryside.
Can I work while I’m there? These days ask for your full presence. If you’d love more time in France, you’re welcome to extend your own stay before or after.
What if I’ve traveled with you before? Each retreat meets you where you are now, so returning women find something new every time.
What’s the weather like? Early fall in France tends to be mild — daytime temperatures will be in the 60’s and 70’s, with evenings cooling down to the 50’s.
LIMITED TO 6 WOMEN!
Six women will spend this fall discovering what they’re capable of, in Paris and the French countryside, with every detail carried for them.
