New signature day retreat invites women to break free from “good girl” conditioning

A new signature day retreat designed to help women break free from people-pleasing patterns and reclaim their authentic voice is launching this year across two beautiful locations in Northamptonshire and Milton Keynes.

Hosted by holistic women’s life coach and retreat facilitator Holly Wilson, founder of Rise with Holly, The Good Girl Detox Retreat will bring together women who are ready to unlearn the rules that have kept them small, from over-giving and over-explaining to feeling responsible for everyone else’s emotions.

The immersive retreat will take place on Saturday 10th May (10:30am - 3:30pm) at The Tipi in Denton, Northamptonshire, and Saturday 12th July (10:30am - 3:30pm) at Westbury Arts Centre in Milton Keynes.

Set within peaceful, nature-inspired environments, the retreat offers a safe and supportive space where participants can explore the deeper patterns behind people-pleasing and learn practical tools for setting boundaries, building self-trust and communicating more authentically.

“Many women grow up learning the rules of being agreeable, accommodating and easy to love,” says Holly. “Those patterns may once have helped us feel safe, but they can also keep us shrinking, over-giving and slowly losing touch with our own voice.”

Throughout the day, participants will take part in reflective coaching exercises, guided journaling, group discussion, meditation, nervous system grounding practices, a bespoke ritual to take home, and a closing sound bath designed to help integrate the work.

The retreat is designed to be both insightful and practical, helping women leave with tools they can apply in their everyday lives.

“Understanding the pattern is one thing,” Holly explains. “But when women explore these dynamics together in a supportive space, something softens. Hearing each other’s reflections often helps us see our own patterns more clearly, and that shared space makes it easier to begin responding differently.”

Alongside the coaching and reflection sessions, the experience will include light refreshments, time for connection and a gifted signature Rise with Holly candle in collaboration with Smudgy Scents, a local Northamptonshire maker of handmade crystal soy wax candles.

The Good Girl Detox Retreat is open to women who feel ready to stop shrinking and begin embracing their authentic voice.

Spaces are intentionally limited to maintain an intimate and supportive atmosphere.
