THE ART OF BEING YOU
“You are a piece of art –
a masterpiece –
Art is passion
Passion is Art
Art is unique!
So are you
You are enough
Always”
WHAT IF WE LOOKED AT LIFE THROUGH AN ARTISTIC LENS?
When an artist creates, it is with thought, care and love. Sometimes, there are imperfections -
this is what makes the art so unique and compelling.
The imperfections can lead to ideas and new techniques that make art into masterpieces.
What if the Mona Lisa wasn’t giving that knowing smile?
What if Jackson Pollock never discovered his love for drips and splatters?
What if Picasso hadn’t loved geometric shapes?
Each piece was created with care and intention, and a dash of experimentation - just like you
were!
YOU are a work of art.
A painter sits in her studio. She gazes out the window, thinking. It is an important first step.
Once she has her idea formed, she begins her artistic process. She makes some sketches,
rough and quick. Then she begins to paint. At first, it doesn’t look like a finished product. It takes
time and skill to go from those first rough sketches to a finished piece.
There are times she has to stop and fix a mistake. There are times she doesn’t know what to do
next. And there are also times when she has to take a break from the painting so she can come
back with fresh eyes.
But when she is done, she has created something extraordinary.
Maybe over time, as life happened and obligations crowded out your passions and interests,
you’ve lost touch with your unique “you-ness.” You lost sight of the fact that you are a one-of-a-
kind work of art. You forget that what you offer the world is unlike anyone else.
You are as valuable and rare as any Matisse, any Van Gogh, any Beethoven, any da Vinci.
When you feel stuck, scared, unfulfilled, or ordinary, just remember that you were created for
your own unique purpose and passion. If you haven’t discovered what that is yet, it’s only
because you are still in process, just like that great painting or symphony.
YOU ARE THE ARTIST OF YOUR OWN LIFE
Maybe you were told along the way that other people were allowed to make choices for you.
You may feel like you aren't in charge of your own future. You’re wondering how to move
forward because:
● You are at a crossroads because of unexpected blocks in your way.
● You lost something, a pursuit or passion, that was special to you and you are seeking to
get it back into your life.
● The world around you changed due to circumstances beyond your control and you don’t
feel part of it anymore.
● You’ve changed, and now are stuck in your current life. You deal with daily struggles and
are tired of trying to solve them on your own.
Women often find themselves in isolation trying to deal with their stuff. They are pushed into
feeling “not enough” or “not good enough” and don’t want others to bear the burden of their
problems.
We believe you shouldn’t have to fix yourself in isolation. We want you to discover your
purpose, your passion, and gather the courage to pick up your instrument of choice and begin to discover that you are the artist of your own life. And we believe that the best way for you to do this is surrounded by a supportive, loving tribe of like-minded women.
THE TRANSFORMATION
Art is expression - communication, passion, purpose, love…
express yourself in the way you want to be seen.
Here at this retreat you will have the chance to transform into the masterpiece - as you are.
YOUR COACHES
Karin + Sabine
"We don't believe in fixing yourself in isolation. We believe everyone deserves a cheerleader and the tools to open up your life’s path so your next steps become visible."
THE ARTIST
Francesca has participated in various exhibitions around the world, and she has always worked
on the idea of transformation through her painting, sculpting, and photography. During our
retreat, she will introduce us to her art work and life. We will work at her atelier, surrounded by
the sweet scent of orange and almond trees.

THE SETTING - TO BE CONFIRMED
THE ACTIVITIES
We will welcome Robert Rother to work with us.
He brought EFT – the Emotional Freedom Techniques, or “Tapping,” as it is commonly referred
to - to Europe and he is the partner of Gary Craig USA – who is the founder of that powerful
healing and stress releasing method/technique. EFT is a relatively new discovery and a fast-
evolving treatment within the field of Energy Psychology that is catching the attention of healers, scientists, spiritualists and everyday people.
Robert healed himself from kidney cancer and today lives with one kidney and enjoys life to the
fullest.
We will have time to explore the island via boat and go on a train ride on the ancient Palma
Train, giving you time to savor the spectacular views of Mallorca.
There will also be planned time for exercising and walking on the beach and in the
Transmontana Mountains.
THE MASTERMIND
We will be creating mastermind groups because we believe women supporting women is a
powerful way to heal and move forward. The mastermind groups will express ideas, thoughts,
and feedback with each other, with the intention to support and lift each other up.
