You’re tired. We get it.
You’ve spent years rushing, caring, planning, solving, showing up.
And maybe you’ve forgotten what it feels like to sit still.
To read a book. Not for work or a course, not for the kids, but because you want to.
To exhale so deeply your shoulders drop two inches.
To be in a space where no one needs you for anything.
Welcome to A Place to Pause.
It’s a reading retreat for women who need quiet, comfort, and something beautiful to get lost in.
No icebreakers. No agendas. Just books, blankets, shared meals, and long afternoons where nothing is urgent.
Why Pausing Matters
This retreat is a soft landing for the women who are overdoing it.
Who’ve hit a wall and don’t need a solution - just a bed, a book, and a big mug of tea.
It’s for busy minds and tired hearts. For women who love reading but haven’t had a quiet weekend in years.
We don’t believe in burnout culture.
We believe in turning off your phone.
In mornings with no plans.
In joy without expectation.
In rest that’s real and uninterrupted.
