Weekend Coaching Retreat at Hunter Cottage

A restorative, strategic pause for leaders and entrepreneurs

Step away from the noise and spend a focused, spacious weekend at Hunter Cottage—a cozy, artful retreat space on the Saanich Peninsula—designed for leaders and entrepreneurs who are ready to reset, reflect, and re‑align.

Over the course of a weekend, you’ll work 1:1 with Leslie in a blend of executive coaching, art-based exploration, and gentle, somatic practices, while also having time to rest, walk, and simply breathe in nature. This is not a conference or a group workshop; it’s a tailored, one-on-one retreat shaped around you, your current season, and what’s truly needed next.

​

This weekend is for you if…

• You’re at a crossroads in your work or business and need focused time away from daily demands to think clearly.

• You feel successful on paper, but something in you knows it’s time to re‑define what “success” means now.

• You’re carrying big decisions, new responsibilities, or quiet exhaustion—and want support to make sense of it all.

• You’re craving both structure and softness: strategic coaching alongside rest, creativity, and nature.

What the weekend includes

While every retreat is customized, a typical weekend at Hunter Cottage includes:

• Pre‑retreat clarity call (online, 45–60 minutes)
  To name your priorities, hopes, and questions so the weekend is shaped around what matters most.

• Three to four private coaching sessions across the weekend
  Deep, focused sessions that draw on executive and organizational coaching, values work, and systems thinking to clarify where you are, what’s changing, and what you want to create next.

• Art‑based reflection and visual mapping
  Simple, accessible art and mapping exercises (no “art skills” required) to help you see patterns, surface intuition, and translate insight into a visual “Holistic Success Map” for the next chapter.

• Somatic and wellbeing practices
  Gentle body-based check‑ins, breath, and grounding practices to reconnect you with your own pace, capacity, and inner signals.

• Personal time in and around the cottage
  Space to walk, rest, journal, and integrate—supported by the quiet, natural setting of Hunter Cottage.

• Follow‑up integration session (online, 60 minutes)
  A coaching session 1–2 weeks after your stay to review what has shifted, refine your next steps, and support you in staying connected to what you discovered.​

What you might leave with

By the end of the weekend, you can expect to leave with:

• A clearer sense of what “this next chapter” is actually about for you.

• A concrete, values‑based set of priorities and initial actions for your work or business.

• Language to articulate your direction—to yourself, your team, your stakeholders, or your family.

• A felt experience of what sustainable, grounded leadership can be like in your own body and nervous system.

• Practices and structures that support you to move forward without abandoning your wellbeing.
