Are you ready to unlock your block so that you can get back into your flow and channel your powerful energy into your life and business?
(without losing control or giving up anything else)
Paula and Layla helped reignite a powerful drive within me: to aim high, embrace success without fear, and stand tall in my power as a businesswoman.
I’m deeply grateful to both of them, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this retreat to anyone looking for deep clarity, connection, and business momentum in the most beautiful setting imaginable.

What’s stopping you from taking the next step in your business?
When you work 24/7 to generate other income, care for a family, and run a household, it’s easy to lose sight of what you want to do for yourself, your business, and your legacy. Finding that extra time to apply all this continues to be a 'one day'.
Is it because...
There are never enough hours in the day
You are unsure of the right first step to maximise the best use of time
Most days are spent compromising much-needed time on other paid income
Constantly justifying to yourself if what YOU WANT is ‘worth it’ anymore
You do not feel as connected as you used to, and you daren't get excited about it, especially if it never comes to light.
The Serenity & Strategy retreat wasn’t just a space for business planning.
It wasn’t just about rest, and reflection.
It was a space to meet myself again, through the eyes of powerful, generous women.
Women who came without judgment or agenda, only with the intention to lift each other up.
And in lifting each other, we lifted ourselves.
We left with renewed clarity, grounded confidence, and a business plan.
Nessa Hubbard
So, let me ask you a question: How will you find more time to achieve your goals without compromising anything else?
Finding an hour here or there is possible; yes, you have a busy schedule, but waiting until no one else needs anything from you for that hour never materialises; you need to TAKE that time.
It sounds easy to say no or that I'm busy!
But the truth is, you have a conscience and you feel compelled to help others even if it's not your job, or could wait, or could be done by any other adult—it's just that YOU are the one everyone needs!
When you believe in yourself and choose to act, even for one hour, your thoughts, goals, and beliefs send a clear message to yourself that it's possible, and you keep that dream alive.
You don't need more time - you need more focus!
And just like that, you missed a day because you were needed, and it then turned into a week, a month, a year, or five years. And losing focus means your ideas, dreams, and goals are not there to excite you.
You need to become completely obsessed with you and your dream.
Bear with me here... When you need to get shit done, you do it!
You are more than capable of getting your ideas, dreams and legacy back on track, but before you do, you need to reconnect, fall in love with your ideas and dreams again, and when you choose to find time to reconnect with yourself, then real magic happens. You realise that 'being' is as significant as 'doing', and you focus and learn to use your own flowing energy.
The energy you create is extremely powerful, learn how to channel that and no one will stand in your way again.
I'm going to guess that if you are reading this, you haven't found a way to achieve it yet!
You need to do this one thing differently.
Serenity and Strategy Retreat
Empowering busy women to leave behind what they no longer need and reclaiming their vision to transform dreams into actionable plans, whilst tapping into their power!
You’ll walk away with
A belief in yourself that you are worthy of this to push past the distraction blocks.
A clearly defined business roadmap for the next few years means you will use your time wisely, even if you have only two hours a week.
A reconnection with yourself and that belief that you are worth it, no more feeling guilty or needing to apologise.
A deeper connection brings your business vision into your mind, body, and spirit, encapsulating and holding your vision steady.
The feeling of calm, knowing that you are on the right path, and this is your time.
this is what you are looking for...
I came to the Strategy and Serenity retreat with the idea of updating my business plan for the coming year and working on reducing some of the pressure I put on myself.
What I got was a total release of so many emotions I had locked away and the tools to manage my energy going forward. I gained an understanding of what I truly want from my business, finally finding my why (after so many years of not feeling I was enough) and a roadmap to create my next steps forward.
I shared 4 days of self discovery, business ideas, tears and laughter with support, encouragement and love.
Paula and Layla were like the scaffolding holding us up while we built our self-belief and courage for the business and people we wanted to create.

Leave the world behind. After a long travelling day, settle in and kick back. In the evening, enjoy some local food cooked fresh for you.
We will have our first session in the evening. After an introduction to the others, you will meet Paula and Layla, who will guide you through the week. Paula will kick off with intention-setting questions, and then Layla will take over.
Allowing you to take your intention from your head to your heart.
Your intention is a powerful stream of energy you can use to create and express whatever you desire or dream of. And when I say energy, I mean the energy you are, which is the main content. So it is all about speaking from your space and your center. That is why reconnection with your self-awareness and vibration is a game-changer in reconnecting with your business vision.
Day 1
Whats Included...




Day 2 starts with a grounding meditation by Layla. Grounding is about soothing your mind so that it stops stopping you!
We take this into our first workshop of the day, 'The How doesn't matter'. We work on removing barriers from your ideas and focusing on what you want. After a delicious meal out, we ask the questions. Maybe you will have answers, or maybe you will need to think about it.
After a hard day working, Layla takes over for the last session.
After a hard day's work, you deserve relaxation and serenity. In the evening, you need to be present with all emotions that have shown up in the process. You need to be present with your body. You can easily create and perform from the space close to your centre. Discover what lightness is! Go with the flow! If you adopt this new viewpoint with your level of energy, your business idea will expand beyond the limits of what you know is possible.
Day 2




Our morning starts with a walk in the forest. Connect back to nature and feel it. Take the smells, sights, and sounds back with you. Use this to soothe your mind, honour your body, and use your heart as the major advisor and guide while you work through the Chunk It Down ® framework to start building your roadmap.
During the day, you will be invited for 1:1 sessions.
A session with Paula will help you plug the gaps in your plan and help you pull out a few more ideas.
A session with Layla will help you get past, through, or over something in your way.
We will take a break in a lovely local restaurant to continue nourishing your body and soul. This is your day to push the blocks out of the way and find your real power and channel that into what you really want!
To finish the sessions, we will meet by the fire near the stream and cook sausages and s'mores and laugh. Layla will perform the session 'elements' while we are surrounded by the earth, air, fire, and water.
Implement the fact that business is not just a matter of strategy. It's all about flowing the energy through your body and being in your centre. Get even closer to what you desire with the support of nature around you and a group of like-minded women. Explore a few more ways of manifesting your business vision and activate it in the most advantageous position.
Day 3






On our last morning, Layla shares her last meditation with us as we close the circle we opened with each other on day one.
Today, you continue your roadmap.
After Layla closes the circle, you will be invited for one more 1:1 session with Paula to build that roadmap and ensure a clear plan.
You then have the opportunity to leave on Thursday afternoon (from 12 p.m.) if it's better for your flight/journey home or stay for the remainder of the day.
Staying gives you a quiet place to reflect on the last few days, use that to continue on your roadmap or take some time to yourself.


Day 4
Day 5


For those who stayed you will be invited for another walk in the forest to enjoy the area before you need to pack up and saying goodbye, you will travel back home, taking with you the plan you have been able to create and a renewed self-belief.
You will be ready for the next chapter because you will write it.
Coaches Reviews - Agnieszka 'Layla' Nisio
When I started working with Agnieszka Layla Nisio in early 2024, I suffered from burnout and felt like I was drowning. I was fixated on the small things, angry with everyone, and unable to stay focused. I had been there before and knew I needed to find someone to talk to.
I had moved to a different country, started a business, written a book, and grown my other business, and I never stopped. I kept myself busy so I didn't need to think about being in a different country, unable to speak the language, and unable to visit even the doctor without help!
I had seen a few therapists in England and knew what to expect: 6-8 sessions and being reminded about Cognitive Behavior Therapy and why I needed to use it. Despite all this, I still felt I needed to talk with someone, so when I met Layla, I was surprised and taken aback. She was different. She listened, and she allowed me to share where I was.
This was a new path I had never walked. Therefore, during each session, I relaxed. I wasn't told I needed to do something. I was allowed to explore my feelings, be upset, and be happy. All the while, what I didn't realise was I was being 'treated'!
Layla shared a few months ago that the way of 'treatment' depends on the person she meets, as no two people are alike. She read me well. I came out of every session feeling like I was leaving a piece of the trauma behind that I had been holding onto for the last few years. It's really enlightening when you are seen, when you are given what you need to help piece yourself back together... and no one ever allowed me to be with these feelings and to help me understand why and to help me to move those feelings to a lighter place...

Can you afford not to do this?
You have always known you were meant for more. You apply yourself more than anyone you know, go over and above, and have a crazy drive inside you (especially when something needs to happen).
So why are you struggling with creating this legacy, making this masterpiece? It’s not that you are not giving it everything you have because, oh boy, you are… All the while, it's like walking through treacle, and you just can’t move forward, and when you do, the results seem insignificant for the time and energy you have spent on it.
However, if someone presents something to you, a billion ideas pop up, and you can help that person do anything… organise a birthday, wedding or move house. Still, when you need something for yourself, you are stuck with analysis paralysis.
I know; I have been there. And I know that it’s so difficult to move forward when EVERYTHING needs to happen, and there is just you. The day starts with a to-do list and ends with shopping lists, homework, seven letters, and a splatter of dinner, 50 emails and at the bottom is the to-do list with more things scribbled on it.
If only you had someone like you to help you out, I mean your so good at it. You could create a plan, you could organise your business, you could automate parts you don’t want to waste time on, and you could kick your own ass… how fab would that be?
But, it would help if you released her for a few days to find herself, to reconnect with herself, her belief and her/your vision - she needs to fill her own cup so she can push you and your dream over the line.
This is more than just a retreat—it’s a gift to yourself, a chance to reconnect with your vision, and a powerful opportunity to transform your business. At the Serenity & Strategy Retreat, you’ll find the clarity you’ve been seeking, the support you’ve been craving, and the inspiration you need to move forward with confidence and purpose.
We understand that life is busy, and stepping away is hard. But taking this time for yourself is crucial. It’s an investment in your well-being and the future success of your business. The benefits you’ll gain far outweigh the challenges of stepping away for a few days.
Your journey to clarity, relaxation, and strategic growth begins here.

Your Coaches Reviews - Paula

Meet Layla
I am a psychologist by education (I studied Psychology at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow) and a psychotherapist (5-year Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Course at the Collegium Medicum in Krakow), a psychodieteticist (postgraduate studies at the WSNS in Lublin). I also completed training in Ayurvedic Psychology (Agni Ayurveda) and the Basics of Multidimensional Communication (LAN by Liza Sarna). Gaining experience is just as important to me as gaining knowledge, so as a participant, I have used - and still use - numerous trainings and development workshops, convincing myself that my resources and energy are the basis for treating other people.
I approach therapy holistically, which means that I take into account all levels of human functioning (body, mind, emotions, spirit). I consider them in terms of energy (energywork). In my work, I use, among others, the theories of Dr. Dispenza, Hawkins, Liz Hern, Gustav Jung. I love to include symbols, myths, shamanic accents, art, the invigorating and grounding power of contact with nature, and breath in the therapy process. I am open to the wealth of experiences that life brings - at the right moment for me, I come into contact with new sources of inspiration. I use them first to transform myself and deepen the truth about myself (because this is a process that never ends), and then as therapeutic tools in contact with clients.


I practice meditation, Centering Prayer, mindfulness. For as long as I can remember, broadly understood Spirituality has played an important role in my life. My roots are Christianity, but over the years I have also drawn and continue to draw from other spiritual traditions (Buddhism, Hinduism, shamanism). There are no rigid boundaries for me, my contemplative mind tends to unify rather than look for differences and divisions. And my heart knows that everything is One. Since childhood, I have had a tendency to connect different, very different (on the surface) worlds and points of view. This is one of the values that I now bring to understanding people and to therapy.
Also, since I can remember, the approach to my own Body has been important to me. For many years I had a so-called difficult relationship with my body, but now I know that each stage of this journey through the dark valley was necessary. Currently, I am delighted with my femininity, I consider my body a wise ally and I am increasingly able to read all the information it gives me.
I am passionate about sports, intuitive dance, art (I create my own), traveling, and recently also Arabic culture and Tantra.
I am a mother of 2 children who are a constant encouragement to me to reach for the best available version of myself.
