"Create a Life that Feels as Good as it Looks"
A private 4-day getaway
for high-achieving women
who are ready to slow down, breathe and reconnect.
In a beautiful, fully privatized setting surrounded by NATURE, you’ll be part of a small group of like-minded women, where you can share openly, feel supported and realize you’re not alone.
No pressure. No overwhelm. No need to do more.
Just space to pause, meaningful conversations and a simple, structured experience to help you reset, reconnect and move forward with more CLARITY, ENERGY and JOY.
YOU’VE BUILT A LIFE THAT LOOKS SUCCESSFUL
BUT INSIDE … IT FEELS DIFFERENT.
You’re smart, driven, accomplished. You manage your work, your responsibilities, your family. You show up for everyone.
But behind it all:
You feel overwhelmed.
You feel exhausted
You rarely take time for yourself.
You feel guilty when you do.
And deep down… you feel unfulfilled as if something is missing.
Not because you’re doing something wrong.
But because you’ve been doing too much and being too little.
This Retreat is for the Woman who ...
Is used to holding everything together for everyone else.
Feels the pressure of multiple roles: leader, partner, mother, achiever.
Has created success, but doesn’t fully feel it.
Is ready to stop running on empty.
Knows something needs to change
Whether you are:
The Corporate Leader. You perform at a high level, carry responsibility and deliver results, but your energy is constantly stretched.
The Entrepreneur. You’ve built something meaningful, but the weight of it all leaves little space for yourself.
The Woman in Transition. You feel something shifting. You’ve outgrown a version of yourself, but don’t yet see clearly what’s next.
Meaningful conversations with like-minded women
Expert-led sessions in a small, intimate group
Time to reflect, think and gain clarity
Practical tools and insights you can apply immediately
Space to recharge mentally and emotionally
A beautiful and fully privatized venue that supports slowing down
This is not a packed or overwhelming retreat. It is structured, intentional and designed to create clarity without pressure.
What you will Experience
It is not about doing more. It’s about being more.
Not fixing yourself. But freeing yourself.
Not adding more strategies. But reconnecting with what truly matters.
This is a space to step out of your daily life and reconnect with:
Your relationship with yourself and with others.
Your energy, well-being, and inner balance.
What truly matters in this season of your life.
The direction you want to move toward.
With a strong focus on: the quality of your relationships and how they shape your life experience

Over 25 years ago, my husband and I took a leap of faith, moving from Belgium to the South of France to pursue our dream:
“Follow your heart to realize your dreams.”
We launched and ran a luxury B&B and Art Boutique called “ALEGRIA”—the embodiment of the “Joy of Life”—for two decades. At the same time, we worked as a freelance author and photographer for esteemed magazines and an international travel guide.
Today, we’ve expanded our entrepreneurial pursuits to include ALEGRIA REAL ESTATE, showcasing exceptional properties, and ALEGRIA COACHING, where I channel my expertise to empower others.
Our path wasn’t without its challenges. Leaving behind corporate careers in Belgium and building our first business in Provence came with obstacles. Yet, through unwavering passion and dedication, we discovered that “Turning Challenges into Opportunities” is the cornerstone of lasting success.
Over the past two decades, we identified 3 pillars essential for professional success and a balanced life:
✮ Creating More Time to truly enjoy life
✮ Creating More Wealth to thrive
✮ Creating More Impact for fulfillment
These elements are at the heart of my "Joy of Life" Program, where I help ambitious female entrepreneurs and high achievers realize greater success and abundance, while working smarter—not harder.
My Mission: Your Success
I’m committed to sharing the strategies and insights that helped me find balance, joy and happiness so you can achieve the same. My coaching helps you align your career ambitions with personal fulfillment, ensuring that your journey is sustainable and rewarding.
Ready to Create More Time, Wealth, and Impact?
Let’s embark on this journey together. Your dreams are priceless, and I’m here to guide you toward making them a reality.

Over 25 years ago, my husband and I took a leap of faith, leaving behind our corporate careers in Belgium to build a life we had only dreamed of in the South of France.
“Together, we Followed our hearts to realize our dreams”
and launched ALEGRIA, a luxury B&B and Art Boutique that embodied the “joy of life.” For two decades, we poured our passion into creating meaningful experiences for our guests. Alongside this, we pursued our creative interests as a freelance author and photographer, contributing to renowned magazines and travel guides.
Today, we’ve expanded our entrepreneurial pursuits to include ALEGRIA REAL ESTATE, where we showcase exceptional properties, and ALEGRIA COACHING, where I empower driven businesswomen to reclaim their time, energy, and joy—without sacrificing success.
But the path to success was far from smooth. Around 2010, our business faced a significant challenge as competition skyrocketed. The market was flooded, prices plummeted, and our value dropped drastically. We were at a crossroads: adapt or risk losing everything.
Instead of backing down, we innovated. We invested in our services, added more value, and made the bold decision to double our prices. It was terrifying at first, but by the end of that year, we had achieved our best results yet. Not only did we attract high-end clients who valued our work, but we also built long-term relationships that fueled sustainable growth.
This experience taught us that "Turning Challenges into Opportunities" is the cornerstone of lasting success—a principle I now share with my clients.
Three Pillars of Success and Fulfillment
Through this journey, we discovered 3 essential pillars for achieving professional success while living a balanced, joyful life:
✮ Creating More Time to truly enjoy life
✮ Creating More Wealth to thrive
✮ Creating More Impact for fulfillment
These elements became the foundation of my signature "Joy of Life" Method, where I empower ambitious women to align their professional goals with personal happiness and wellbeing.
These transformations—and countless others—reinforce my belief that success doesn’t have to come at the expense of joy.
My Mission: Your Success
Today, I pour everything I’ve learned into ALEGRIA COACHING, helping women like you achieve success and fulfillment by "working smarter, not harder". My mission is to help you create more Clarity, more Energy, and more Time to do what you Love—so your life feels as successful as it looks.
