Woohoo…we’re onto our third Boot&Soul Camp … Mel and I are very excited about our upcoming winter event at the end of June… Much easier to promote ourselves through the eyes of others… this from an attendee from last Boot&Soul camp: ” I doubt a weekend could have been more nourishing than Boot&Soul camp. It ticked every box. I left inspired and invigorated.” Let me know if you want more information or check out the brochure online.

I was included in an article in the Sydney Morning Herald today… What an affirming moment for me… With my own strong Lover Archetype, I do look for affirmation outside of myself and am so delighted that the work I feel passionate about, has sufficient meaning and worth for Sarah to include… I feel like Curve of the World came of age 
Reflecting on Boot&Soul Camp

Do you think I could make up a collective noun for a bunch of wombats? In my 22 years in Australia I have only seen a wombat in the wild once… the retreat seemed to be a magnet for these fat little barrels – so I decided on a plague of wombats… As for Boot&Soul Camp, there is something magical about stepping away from our day-to-day lives and going on retreat – whether you are the facilitator or a participant you actively step through a portal and transformation occurs in some way for all. It was an amazing few days with a beautiful group of women – generous, courageous, open and engaged… we ate healthily, worked hard, practised loads of yoga and also drank heaps of red wine, laughed like drains and gobbled plenty of chocolate… my sort of retreat really.
Mind and Body and Growth

I spoke at a Women in Technology event last week on my current favourite issue the mind/body split. What continues to fascinate me is the number of women who approach me after I present, to share their somatic ailments brought on by corporate stress… I talked in my presentation how I think that yoga and mindfulness played a critical role in allowing me to navigate the demands of a corporate job and then the move into my own business.. and that it continues to offer me a profound way to ground myself, to manage my stress and of course I have included this passion into some of my corporate offerings.. so it is no surprise that yoga is bucking the recession trend … now I just need to see this growth in my Stiletto&Soul and Boot&Soul offerings …

We’re finalising the design for November’s Boot&Soul Camp… Michele has managed to conjure up the Punjab… so LOVE it… Now all we need are 12 wonderful women… Am also working on a proposal for corporates to nourish their women leaders by embracing their very own Stilleto&Soul camp…

We just finalised our Boot&Soul Camp for November which is very exciting… now we need to attract 12 fabulous women… Brochure is underway and we’ll have our marketing ready within the fortnight… We also may have an opportunity to run a bespoke event for a corporate group of left-brain, analytic women to set their right brains free… fingers crossed.
Containment and Drama

One of the women on the retreat was pretty ill before she arrived – what amazed me was her capacity to both contain herself, not impact others and also to really enjoy the weekend despite having a nasty virus… I on the other hand, had to have root canal 3 hours before I left for the retreat and before any guest had entered the house, they knew my tale of woe, my endontist’s name and my enormous gratitude that I had managed to have it done before I left Sydney… Different archetypes doing their bit I guess…
With my boot in hand a soulful threshold is crossed

What an amazing weekend – the first Boot&Soul Camp…The women were extraordinary, the retreat centre perfect, the food yummy, the yoga delicious and the process work gentle yet transforming. Personally I crossed a few of my own important thresholds – my prayer to the universe became a reality and Boot&Soul Camp was born, I did my first unassisted handstand, I saw my first wombat (living one that is) in the wild and Mel and I worked so beautifully together… The co-creation with her was a gentle and nourishing dance that held the energy of the women for the weekend. In the words of one of the participants: “Rarely do I go to something where I let go – generous, considered, caring, safe and special. The sharing of your knowledge caused the change – you did what you hoped and I felt it and loved it – thank you”… and another “The combination of focusing both on our physical wellbeing as well as calming and engaging the mind was a magical formula and I have returned rejuvenated and re-inspired.”…So from yoga to archetypes; silent walks to treasure maps, we managed to create a beautiful and empowering weekend for all. Thank you to all the women who joined us for the first B&S retreat … 
It’s launched…. Boot&Soul Camp 1 -3 June

The retreat feels like Curve of the World has come of age – it’s real, it’s out there and it’s a public statement about my passions… Mel and I are incredibly excited about the possibilities that Boot & Soul Camp may hold… and a huge THANK YOU to Michele for creating such a beautiful and whimsical piece to capture the essence…now all we need are 12 like-minded women to register….
