From Scratch Summer Retreat in Hunua

From Scratch Retreat Weekend in Hunua 🌱 ​A weekend to slow down, reconnect, create and make space for what’s next. ​ Saturday 28 to Sunday 29 November in Hunua. ​We're getting out of the city for a day and evening together in Hunua, hosted at our own member Emily Melhuish's beautiful home and surrounded by nature. ​Starting something from scratch can be exciting, but it can also feel like a lot to carry on your own. ​So we're creating a little space to step away from the noise, put the to-do list down, and spend some unhurried time with women who are also building, changing, figuring things out and finding their way. ​Expect good food, movement, creativity, honest conversations, a campfire and plenty of time to simply be. ​Come as you are. You don't need to have anything figured out. ​ Saturday 28 November ​Arrive & Opening Circle Settle in, meet the group and begin the day together. ​Movement Get outside, move our bodies and ease into the day. ​Long Lunch We’ll prepare lunch together, enjoy good food and conversation, and take our time connecting with one another. ​Art & Creative Session A chance to get out of our heads and into our hands. No artistic experience required just come ready to play and experiment. ​Long Dinner Let’s cook and share a delicious dinner together, lovely conversation and plenty of time to connect as we ease into the evening. ​A Space to Connect An open and lightly facilitated space to slow down, share, reflect and have the kinds of conversations we don't always make time for. Bring a question, a challenge, something you're navigating or simply come and listen. We'll see where the conversation takes us. ​Campfire Wind down around the fire with drinks, stories, laughter and the kind of conversations that happen when there's nowhere else you need to be. ​ Stay overnight or head home ​The overnight is completely optional. You’re welcome to head home after the evening, or stay and make a full retreat of it. ​If you’d like to stay, please bring your own sleeping bag and mattress/camping mat. There will be space to sleep at the house, but this will be a cosy, informal communal setup rather than hotel-style accommodation. ​Whether you stay overnight or head home the overnight is simply an option for those who'd like to stay a little longer and join us for brunch the next morning. ​ Sunday 29 November ​Slow Brunch & Farewell Wake up slowly, grab a coffee, share one last meal together and head home feeling a little more rested and connected. ​Brunch is optional for those staying overnight. ​ Who is this for? ​You don't need to be a founder to join us. ​Whether you're freelancing, building something, growing a business, changing careers, exploring a new idea, or simply craving some time away from the everyday. ​This retreat is for women who are ambitious, creative, curious and interested in making a difference, wherever they are on their journey. ​Come on your own or bring a friend who might also be keen. ​ Your ticket includes • ​Full-day From Scratch retreat experience • ​Movement • ​Lunch • ​Creative session • ​Dinner • ​Evening connection session • ​Campfire • ​Optional overnight stay • ​Brunch the following morning ​ Early Bird — $195 ​Standard — $225 ​ What is From Scratch? ​A supportive community of women who are interested in helping one another tackle the journey of starting something new. ​Carving a new path all on your own is not an easy feat. It's so much easier (and more fun!) when you're surrounded by a lovely community that's there to help you throughout your journey. ​We'll pull you out of the low lows, support you when you need help, and celebrate the big wins together. ​You don't need to be a founder — we welcome anyone who is ambitious, creative, and interested in making a difference. Whether you're freelancing, building something big, pivoting careers, or just craving real, inspiring and encouraging conversation, this is your space. ​If you know someone starting from scratch who would benefit from joining our community, please share this invite with them :) ​ Who's behind From Scratch? ​Hi :) We're A-Chau and Katharina. We both found ourselves starting again from scratch and wanted to create the kind of community we wished we'd had along the way. ​We're excited to bring a small group of women together for this special weekend and create a little space to slow down, connect and enjoy the journey together. ​Looking forward to spending the weekend with you! ​ Stay connected ​Want to hear more about From Scratch, upcoming gatherings, and the women in our community? ​🌐 Website: fromscratchcrew.com ​📸 Instagram: @fromscratchcrew ​💼 LinkedIn: From Scratch
