ABOUT THE RETREAT
The intention for our Retreat is simple: to provide you with the space and time to unwind and reconnect with yourself.
​
Retreat will be lead by industry professional, Casting Associate and NLP Practitioner Jade Rambaut.
In the chaos of navigating the industry, it’s easy to become stressed, overwhelmed, and full of self-doubt. The Actor's Retreat offers a sanctuary where you can find balance and clarity.
​​
Daily Routines and Workshops
Over five days (4 nights), you’ll be able to practice simple daily routines designed to balance your mind and body. Our science-based workshops, grounded in NLP, CBT and well-being, will help you remove internal blocks, hone your craft, create your own method, and curate a practical toolkit. This will empower you to embody your most connected, calm, and confident self.
Relaxation and Nourishing Food
In the name of balance, it won't be all work and no play. You can also expect locally sourced food prepared by a personal chef and many opportunities to lounge by the pool, relax in the wood-fired hot tub or explore the beautiful gardens and idyllic French countryside.

The Venue
We will be hosting our retreat in the picturesque landscape of South-West France. Once a thriving Cognac distillery, the main building has been meticulously restored to blend rustic charm with modern comfort. Surrounded by lush vineyards and rolling hills, this serene estate offers a tranquil escape where you can unwind by the expansive swimming pool, relax in the wood-fired hot tub, and explore the enchanting gardens.
​
The main house accommodates up to 20 guests, however, our retreat will host just 12 to ensure an intimate and luxurious experience. With its peaceful setting and elegant accommodations, this venue is the perfect backdrop for a transformative retreat.
About your Coaches
Jade and Nikkita have been friends since 2008. While their careers differ with me being a coach, and Nikkita a psychotherapist, they share a passion for empowering women through fitness & psychology.
Their combined knowledge is more than 20 years. With a holistic approach, they will be sharing their skills to empower you to take up space, trust your intuition and play.
​
With her decade of industry experience working on projects such as 'The Witcher', 'Redeeming Love', 'Den of Thieves 2: Pantera', 'Mary' and 'Levon's Trade', Jade will be leading this retreat with the support of Nikkita Hope-Brown.
