The

Show Up 'til You Glow Up

Retreat

A confidence x content retreat for purpose-driven business owners who are ready show up confidently & consistently online and offline.

🗓️ Tuesday 8th – Friday 11th July 2025

📍 Lady Ava Tower, Hesdin Estate, Wiltshire

💸 £500 shared room | £800 single occupancy (all inclusive)

The vibe:

Go from second-guessing everything to confidently showing up as your unfiltered, magnetic self.

Go from ghosting your socials out of fear to knowing exactly what to say and how to say it with clarity + ease.

Go from spiralling in Canva and comparison to creating content that actually feels aligned (and gets results).

Go from feeling invisible to becoming the go-to name in your space - without changing who you are.

The space...

We’re taking over the breathtaking Lady Ava Tower on the Hesdin Estate in Wiltshire - a high-vibe sanctuary where you can breathe, reset, and build bold visibility from the inside out.

Inside you'll find plenty of space to hang out (with or without your new pals), and outside there's a heated outdoor pool & hot tub (THINK OF THE CONTENT 😍)

The sleeping arrangements...

Have a look at the floor plans below, but in short the two tower bedroom will remain doubles (so will be single occupany or two friends sharing), the team will be in the dorm room and the remaining doubles will be transformed into two twin beds.

That means we can accommodate a maximum of 14 guests - less if people choose to upgrade to have one of these divine rooms all to themselves (and one of the tower bedrooms has already been snapped up btw).

What makes this retreat a glow up:

This isn’t about vague affirmations or fluffy “just be confident” advice.

This is about getting under the hood of why you’re really not showing up consistently - and finally shifting it for good.

Across four powerful days, I’ll be leading a series of high-impact workshops, coaching sessions, and mastermind moments designed to help you build unshakeable confidence, create content that actually connects, and fall in love with your visibility strategy (yes, really).

Here’s a taste of what we’ll cover:

🪩 Mindset Reset

We’ll unf*ck the stories in your head that are keeping you stuck, small, or spinning. I’ll be drawing on my NLP training and lived experience to help you build real confidence - not just perform it online.

📲 Content Creation Without the Spiral

I’ll teach you how to make content easier - not just better. You’ll leave with plug-and-play tools, talk-to-camera prompts, and enough ideas to keep you visible without burning out.

💁‍♀️ Strategy That Doesn’t Suck

Together, we’ll build your own rinse-and-repeat visibility plan - so you never have to ask “what should I post?” again.

💅 Magnetic Brand Identity

You’ll get clear on who you’re speaking to, what you want to say, and how to say it in a way that feels like you (not a ChatGPT version of you).

💫 Turn Your ‘Too Much’ Into Your Superpower

You’ll learn how to turn the very things you’ve been hiding into the reasons people trust, follow, and buy from you

And yes - you’ll have plenty of time to chill by the pool, soak in the hot tub, nap, laugh, create content, and be totally offline when you want to be.

This is where mindset, strategy, and community meet.

This is where your next-level visibility begins.

And this time, it’s going to feel like you.

This is for the business owner who is DONE hiding.

Whether you’re ghosting your socials, overthinking every caption, or just sick of trying to “do it right”…

Over 3 transformative days, you’ll experience:

Coaching sessions to unpick the mindset blocks holding you backGet clear on your message, your voice, and your content pillars
Workshops to map out content that connects and converts
Get Sh*t Done sessions where we turn strategy into action (or you can crack on and get some work done - we're all busy I gotchu)
Guest experts sharing juicy, game-changing insights
Group coaching & sisterhood energy (without the ick)
Luxury vibes: Think heated pool, hot tub, games room, and space to fully relax

What's included...

£500 for a shared room or £800 for a single-occupancy double room.

All your food, drinks & snacks (and don't worry we'll check dietary requirements to accomodate you)

Your accomodation - either staying in your own beautiful room or sharing with someone we'll value match to you

High-level training from not Elisabeth & guest experts (cos you don't need to hear her yap ALL the time)

We'll be throwing in a few special extras as a surprise to really make this experience be insanely magical for you

About your host:

Elisabeth Carley-Leonard is a visibility and content strategist, keynote speaker, and the founder of V&V - known for helping purpose-led women show up online with clarity, confidence, and their full personality intact.

But she didn’t always feel visible.

In 2023, Elisabeth left her “perfect on paper” life - the house, the dog, the marriage, the business in Leicester - with nothing but a suitcase and a gut feeling. She moved to London with no money, no plan, and a deep knowing that she was meant for more.

Since then, she’s built a bold, unfiltered brand from the ground up, empowering hundreds of women to stop hiding and start showing up - fully seen, fully expressed, and fully in charge of their voice online.

Elisabeth has hosted two transformational retreats in Italy, blending content strategy, confidence coaching, and deep personal growth. Her sessions are known for being strategic but never stuffy, emotional without the ick, and filled with the kind of sass, safety, and soul that make women feel like they can take on the world.

The Show Up ’til You Glow Up Retreat is a culmination of everything she’s learned about business, self-worth, and visibility - and she cannot wait to welcome you into this next-level version of your life.

"Your insight helped me see a few things and now I have Actionable, Realistic, & Practical things I can put into place"

"A simple trip for learning turned into a trip of reality and realisations.

Elisabeth you were focused and caring at the same time. Your energy and zest for life is infectious . You have a lot of great experience and insights that have been really helpful for me to apply to my life.

You are an amazing listener. Your insight helped me see a few things and now I have Actionable, Realistic, & Practical things I can put into place.

Your energy and ability to listen created a comfortable environment for me to share. It felt like I was finally able to open myself up and take a good look with an open mind.

I look forward to continuing working with you into the future as I’ve found it to be extremely beneficial to achieving my goals."

"I just want a minute to give a huge hands up to our hostess with the mostess Elisabeth, who organised the absolute perfect Italian retreat

A retreat where the sun was shining and the Prosecco and conversation flowing . Elisabeth has such a vibe, her energy throughout the few days was infectious and I know I came away from the retreat not only learning new skills but also with a much more positive mindset. I not only leveled up in business but I feel I leveled up as a person as well

So thank you Lizzie and all you incredible ladies on this retreat, I will definitely never forget this trip or the value that I took away with me when I left"

- Hayley

"I will be forever grateful for this weekend"

"Thank you so much for pulling this together.

I took inspiration from every single one of you.

Everything was absolutely perfect and I wouldn’t change a single thing.

My main take away is, taking some time out on a regular basis to deal with my emotions.

I keep myself so busy and I don’t deal with my emotions. Elisabeth, I will be forever grateful for this weekend"

- Kirstyn

"I left with a sense of clarity, renewed energy, and a toolbox of practices for continued self-improvement"

All I say is Wow...

Attending this retreat was a transformative experience for me, from our daily sessions with Elisabeth to her cooking delicious meals, every detail was curated to assist in my self-discovery and well-being, where I could unwind, recharge, and reconnect with myself.

The ladies I met during this weekend were phenomenal and the can do attitude left me feeling uplifted and positive.

I left feeling renewed, both mentally and physically. This retreat is a true investment in my health and happiness, it was an absolute game-changer for me.

The range of activities and the support from the group really challenged me to identify my values and needs, and with the tranquil surroundings, allowed me to disconnect from the daily grind and truly focus on my well-being.

I left with a sense of clarity, renewed energy, and a toolbox of practices for continued self-improvement.

This retreat is a must for anyone seeking a holistic reset and a journey towards a healthier, more mindful life.

"I can truly say I've had the most amazing time with the most beautiful inspirational women"

"Having taken myself out my comfort zone, I can truly say I've had the most amazing time with the most beautiful inspirational women, came back with a positive mindset and some personal growth.

Thank you Elisabeth for everything, you went above and beyond to make sure everyone was looked after.

You are one amazing woman.

What an amazing experience, I will never forget, in such a beautiful setting, it was absolutely perfect"

- Sally

"I broke through personal blocks I didn't even know I had"

"Attending the Italian Retreat hosted by the wonderful Elisabeth was like getting hit by a personal growth tsunami in the best possible way! Elisabeth created an atmosphere so safe and supportive that even my comfort zone decided to take a vacation!

The retreat was a perfect blend of introspection, boundary-pushing, and vulnerability. It was like a crash course in personal growth, with Elisabeth as the enthusiastic and wise professor and amazing ladies from many different backgrounds all coming together to help make us feel like we were all in this together, creating a bonding experience that could rival any superhero team-up.

Thanks to Elisabeth's expert facilitation, I broke through personal blocks I didn't even know I had. I'm now armed with the superpower of embracing vulnerability and the courage to leap outside my comfort zone. If personal growth were an Olympic sport, Elisabeth would definitely take home the gold!

I can't thank Elisabeth enough for this life-changing experience. She has a knack for turning personal growth into an adventure, sprinkling it with humour, and leaving you with memories and newfound strength that will last a lifetime. Thank you once again for the experience of a lifetime"

- Rashda

"I would recommend whoever gets a chance to attend this retreat, please go for it, because it was worth it"

“Before going to the retreat, I did not know what to expect and of course I had cold feet as it was my first solo trip to a new country. However I gained more than what was offered initially.

I developed the confidence that I can travel on my own and despite having some physical limitations, I managed all the stairs, walks and I was proud of myself.

Meeting the host and other ladies who were so inspirational, listening to their stories of resilience and achievements. I feel I have some good friends and we are already making plans to meet up soon.

To top it all was of course was the business and professional training.

Loved how the host gave examples of her own life to make us relate better to what we were learning.

I would recommend whoever gets a chance to attend this retreat, please go for it, because it was worth it 👌”
