Activate your dreams

- The retreat is fully booked -

Let me know about future retreats and in-person events

A week of professional & personal development supported by the Algarve’s wild, earthy and flowing elements

The beach is just a short walk away.

What if you decided to fully believe in yourself and activate your wildest dreams?

Boost the projects that you would love to see activated in your life.

In an environment with people who fully have your back: coaching peers who wish for you to succeed and achieve what you are longing for.

Where your professional development as a Soul-based Coach goes hand in hand with you building YOUR dream.

 

In the 2025 Coach-the-Coach retreat you can do just that!

The retreat is a multi-layered experience where you: 

Grow and solidify your coaching skills, either using pure Soul-based Coaching (or Clean Language), or further developing your unique coaching style, combining Soul-based Coaching with other tools or modalities in your personal flavour.

AND equally …

… receive coaching ...  practice embodiment and ritual ...co-create workshops ... all to activate YOUR DREAMS. Focus on what’s calling you this whole week, whether it’s building your business or a deeply personal desire, and find yourself held in sisterhood.

While..

.. you have luscious time each day to integrate new insights and learnings on a walk, swim, heartful conversation or just relax by the pool.

Become a Master at your craft

 

Soul-based Coaching is not just a skill, it is a craft. To become a master in this beautiful craft, we need practice and what is better than practice with direct feed-back from Annemiek! 

Imagine for a moment that you are coaching someone and Annemiek is sitting next to you, cheering you on, whispering little cues that make a huge difference in your coaching. Direct feedback, on the spot in a very supportive manner, this is what you can expect when you join the Coach-the-Coach retreat. 

Some of us were lucky to experience this in our Immersion in Utrecht and we all agreed this made a tremendous difference.

Through coaching, rituals and embodiment practice, you will:

 

Bring your Soul-Based Coaching Skills to the next Level: Coach and receive live feedback on your coaching technique, deepening your confidence in your professional skills. 

Activate your wildest dreams: Enjoy time and space to dive deep into the longings of your heart and bring them into being through the combination of 1:1 peer coaching, embodiment practices and ritual.

Boost your business: We will co-create workshops on topics we decide on together, about topics like; how can we cooperate, marketing, money mindset, boost your profile online or anything else you need to boost your business.

Slow Down & Relax: This week has enough space for you to relax and to slow down, so you can integrate what you learn. Go for a long walk along the beach, hang by the pool, explore the area, take a nap or stroll to a nearby beach cafe for a coffee and some local delicacies such as pastel de nata.

Soften, Connect and Grow: Deepen connections within our like-hearted community of soulful practitioners and enjoy unwinding together.

Leave Inspired: Depart this soulful week feeling nourished, enriched, and ready to bring yourself fully into the world.

Our home away from home in Portugal

 

We have found a magnificent spacious villa in a little village called Galé, only a 10 minute walking distance from the beach. Nearby you can find restaurants, cafes and supermarkets.

The villa has a big pool, a large cosy living room and a kitchen where we’ll eat breakfast and you can choose to prepare your lunch. There is room for 8 participants to stay in shared rooms. 

The villa will be our home during the retreat, where we’ll live and do coaching exchanges, workshops, The Non Linear Movement Method®, temple practices and hang out together.

And Portugal is very hospitable and easy to get around only speaking English.

I want to be the first to know about future events

Your guides

We are excited to bring this retreat to you! We, Annemiek and Wren, are of course part of the Academy trainer team and we both love guiding women's temples in the tradition of Chameli Ardagh's Awakening Women. 

For this retreat, we are very happy to co-create with Corinne Konrad Calder, Mirjam van Ruth (who you may have met as assistants in Invoke), who also have wide experience in guiding groups and individuals in embodiment and change work.

Between us, we have a beautiful mix of magic to pour from and support you in a nourishing deep dive.

Who is this for?

This retreat is for women, who are participants/alumni of:

 🌿  Activate the Power of Soul-based Change (previously The Feminine in Coaching)


🌿  Invoke Your Client’s Magic, the SBC Certification program


🌿  or have had prior Clean Language training - contact Annemiek to check if this is a good fit for you

 

- regardless of where you are on your journey -

(meaning you do not have to work as a coach right now, or be fluent in Clean, but you can and you may!)

 

When you would like to immerse yourself in Soul-based Coaching, develop you skills, and nourish yourself in this field of Yin and in connection time with our community, you are welcome!

What awaits you this nourishing week?

 

If you like, you can start the day joining us for silence and a meditation. Afterwards we have a joined breakfast in the villa at 9 am. 

In the mornings, Annemiek will teach and we will have coaching exchanges, with Annemiek listening in and supervising. 

You can have lunch in one of the restaurants nearby, or you can prepare your own lunch in the villa (there is a supermarket nearby). 

The afternoon is free to spend to your liking. Go to the beach, for a walk, for a coffee. Catch up with each other. Of course you can also continue coaching or work on your plans. But also, growth requires downtime, and this is spacious YOU time. 

Around 4 pm we will meet each other again in the villa, refreshed. We will have a one hour workshop on a topic of the group's choice, related to boosting your business. These workshops are co-creations.

Some days, around 5 pm, we will practise The Non Linear Movement Method®  to support you in processing and integrating your learning, helping you activate new energetic layers for your dreams. 

We finish the day’s program with a sharing circle to transition into the evening.

We'll have dinner together, either at the villa or outside in a local restaurant.

After dinner, you are free to hang out together, do some Free Flow Dancing, sit by the ocean, or retreat and enjoy your private time.
