WORK WITH US
Work with Emma & the Rest & Receive team
Design and deliver retreats that are not only exceptional, but profitable and sustainable within your business.
Most retreats look incredible from the outside. Beautiful locations, full groups, amazing experiences.
But behind the scenes, many are breaking even, running at a loss, or taking far more time and energy than expected.
- Behind the Scene
- Breaking even
- Running at a loss
- or taking far more time and energy than expected
Even established business owners often find themselves:
- Unsure how to price properly
- Overthinking decisions
- Piecing things together as they go
- Or putting it off because it feels bigger than expected
We’ve supported retreats that have gone on to sell out, scale, and become a consistent revenue stream within our clients’ businesses.
YOU DON'T NEED MORE INFORMATION.
You need the right next step and the support to get there.

- want to create retreats that are both impactful and profitable
THIS IS NOT INFORMATION. IT'S SUPPORT
How We Work Together
You’ll work directly with Emma, supported by the Rest & Receive team
behind the scenes to ensure everything moves forward smoothly.
This is not about handing you information and sending you on your
way.
This is about helping you
- make the right decisions

- build something that works long term
This is how our clients save time, avoid costly mistakes, and build retreats that actually generate revenue.
Because retreats are not just an experience.
They are a revenue stream.
Case Study: From Established Retreat Host to Sold Out India Retreat
Georgina came to us as an experienced retreat host with an established business, a loyal community, and a proven track record of running retreats locally and in Bali. She knew how to create a powerful experience for her clients, but when it came to expanding into India, the scale and complexity felt entirely different.
There were more moving parts, higher financial commitments, and a level of logistical detail that required a different approach. While the vision was clear, the structure behind it needed refinement. She didn’t want to rely on intuition alone or risk getting it wrong in a more complex environment.
Our work together focused on bringing clarity and structure to what she was already doing well. We refined the retreat model, worked through pricing and profitability, and introduced systems that supported both the planning process and the delivery of the experience. This was not about starting again, but about strengthening the foundation so the retreat could operate at a higher level, both experientially and commercially.
With the additional support of our South Asia partner, Indus Bound, the retreat was not only beautifully designed, but professionally executed on the ground. This allowed Georgina to step fully into her role as host, focusing on her clients and the experience, rather than managing logistics.
The result was a completely sold-out retreat in India, delivered with confidence and clarity, and a renewed commitment to continue offering retreats as a sustainable and profitable part of her business. She is now planning future retreats with a much stronger structure in place.
As Georgina shared:
“Emma’s support has been extraordinary. She helped bring structure and a professional foundation to my retreats, from pricing and planning through to the finer details behind the scenes. The strategic refinements we made together gave me real clarity and confidence, not just in delivering the experience, but in building something sustainable and profitable as part of my business.”
This is the difference between running a retreat and designing one properly.

What Are Best One in The World
Delivering our India retreat was a huge milestone, and having the right guidance around structure, pricing and planning made the entire process feel clear, achievable and successful.
The experience we created was everything we had hoped for, both for our clients and as part of our business.

Real eye-opener to what’s actually possible with retreats
Working with Emma was a real eye-opener to what’s actually possible with retreats. She brings not only a deep understanding of logistics and structure, but a genuine care for the experience you’re creating.
What stood out most was her honesty, sharing not just what works, but what can go wrong and how to navigate it. I left with clarity, confidence and a completely different perspective on how to approach retreats in a way that feels both achievable and well thought through.
- Annalisa
Reframed what a retreat could look like for me
Emma completely reframed what a retreat could look like for me. I’d always assumed that, as a personal trainer, I’d need to run a traditional fitness retreat, but she helped me see it could be something entirely different.
She supported me through the process and helped me bring the retreat to life in a way that feels aligned with me, my audience and my business.
Now that it’s launched, I can honestly say that without Emma, I’d be feeling really anxious. Having her guidance has made such a difference
