For women always on the go - time out for you to gain inner peace, clarity on your purpose & more confidence & energy to achieve your dreams
As busy, accomplished women we can sometimes get caught up in the demands of life and lose connection with ourselves and our innate wisdom – the unseen, yet powerful, lifeforce that nurtures and sustains us.
The pressure of work, family, relationships, children, ageing parents, and tight deadlines can pull us away from having time out for ourselves and what's most important to us. We can become distracted, tired, or overwhelmed – losing connection with what's true for us.
If you are ready for some time out for you, to relax and reconnect with your heart – to truly come home to you – join me for seven beautiful days in Bali at Reconnect: The Retreat.
Imagine leaving the world behind and giving yourself the gift of nurturing and relaxation – where everything is taken care of. The only thing you'll need to decide is what book to read or whether you'd prefer yoga, a swim or a massage.
Instead of being a powerhouse for others, this is a chance for you to reconnect to your innate power – that beautiful, timeless source of love, joy, peace and calm within.
Reconnect is about celebrating you – there are lots of nurturing experiences – like sound baths and massages – which will help you feel relaxed and revitalised. You also have the choice to attend some beautiful morning workshops where you will gain some practical take-home tools to de-stress, connect to your greatness and gain clarity on the next chapter of your life.
Whether you are an accomplished busy woman looking for a break to relax and cocoon yourself in feminine energy or you’re looking to reconnect with your truth and purpose, Reconnect will meet you where you're at.
My door is open to you – I invite you to step through it and join me in Bali in October 2024.
Here is what some of our beautiful 2023 participants had to say:
What will you receive at Reconnect?
In our journey together you will:
- Reconnect with and celebrate you
- Receive beautiful nurturing so you can completely relax – you will enjoy a complimentary massage, sound healing, meditation and very gentle yoga tailored to your needs.
- Have the chance to reset by discovering tools to reduce your stress and open you to your intuition, inner power and purpose
- Receive a powerful ‘greatness reading’ to shine a light on your brilliance
- Gain simple daily practices so you can integrate what you have discovered about yourself and committed to on retreat into life at home
- Receive the space to consider the next chapter of your life - be it for your business, work, relationship or health
- Experience some of Bali’s most sacred rituals and experiences with experienced guides
- Be looked after by our beautiful resort team who serve nutritious whole-foods at every meal and take care of every detail
- Connect with a community of remarkable, accomplished like-minded women ready to relax, have fun and reconnect with their true essence.
Join Jen Ramsey and a powerful group of inspiring women to reconnect with what's most important, celebrate your greatness and create more space and joy in your life.
Reconnect with your joy
“When I booked for Reconnect, I thought it would be a relaxing holiday, laying by the pool, and lots of massages. As it turned out, it was those things, but so much more. I highly recommend Jen’s retreat for anyone who feels “stuck”; who is wanting to clear some cobwebs or wants to make sense of the life they are living – and how to improve it. Jen will provide you with the tools to really make a difference in your life moving forward.”
Caroline, Gold Coast
What can you expect at Reconnect?
To Celebrate You and Tap Into Your Flow
If not now – when? When was the last time you truly celebrated you? In the rush of life, we can disconnect from what’s most important to us and who we really are. This is your chance to reconnect with your essence – your beauty and your innate power – and to celebrate you! Let me take you by the hand and create a safe space for you to connect with you and your heart’s desire. Imagine your life in perfect flow, where you are at the right place at the right time. Where, instead of trying to move life, life moves you, where you truly understand your unique gifts and talents in the world.
This is also your chance to deeply connect with your dreams … and the contribution you long to make. If you desire, this is your chance to map the next chapter of your life … from the position of peace, clarity, and understanding that can only arise when we take time out from our daily routines and commitments.
Here is Caroline, one of our 2023 participants.
Connection and Community
Women have been sitting and sharing in circles for millennia. There is a sacredness and nurturing that arises when women meet together to share and celebrate each other. If you long for connection with a group of empowered women who love a laugh and are excited about the infinite possibilities of life, join me.
Nurturing and Relaxation
If you feel your to-do list is always full … often for others … this is your chance to take some time out for you by the pool, with a massage, walking in nature, or with your favourite book. This space for relaxation is one of the reasons I LOVE Bali – so, if you are ready to completely relax and unwind, join me.
Below is an aerial view of our gorgeous, luxury retreat - which is on the banks of one of Bali's three sacred rivers - The Petanu River. A holy spring flows under our yoga shala and the team at the resort exemplify Bali's loving and gracious hospitality.
The Magic of Bali
Bali herself is a revered powerhouse of divine energy – known for her beautiful people and nurturing energy. I have chosen Bali as she will gift you with insights and magic not available elsewhere. I am so excited to share my love of Bali with you with experiences including:
- A traditional Balinese welcome ceremony
- An immersion in nature and the sacred at an ancient waterfall temple
- The tranquillity of a traditional rice field walk
- An introduction to life in a traditional Balinese village.
The photo below is from our visit to the Sacred Waterfall Temple.
“If you get the opportunity to attend one of Jen's retreats you are in for a treat. Jen embodies the essence of renewal. I left her recent retreat feeling revived and more alive and ready to move forward in ways I hadn't anticipated. Such a joy.”
Who is Reconnect for?
Reconnect is tailor-made for you if you:
- Would love time out from your demanding daily routine to reconnect with yourself and gain clarity on what’s most important to you
- Are ready for a reset and to let go of all that’s no longer serving you so you can move forward with more peace, calm and joy in your life
- Would love to relax in a beautiful place with amazing like-minded women who are real, open, and ready for conversations about things that matter
- Want to create a deeper connection with your inner wisdom
- Would love to connect with your purpose and bring it to life in the next chapter of your life
- Are ready to celebrate you!
- Love the idea of connecting, adventuring, relaxing and laughing with women who are loving, open and accepting of you … exactly as you are
- Want to hang out with Jen, a loving guide, dedicated to you experiencing your innate essence, claiming your power and living your greatness
- Love the idea of fresh, delicious food on tap
- Are ready for some incredible day spa action … massage, mani, pedi anyone?
- Have always wanted to explore Bali but felt unsure about visiting on your own.
Reconnect is NOT for you if:
- You prefer to sit in silent meditation for long periods – we will definitely be meditating, and offering daily meditative practices such as yoga and sound healing. We'll also be spending time together in community – connecting, sharing and celebrating you
- You are not open to growth or change – Reconnect is a gentle retreat that my beautiful participants have said is life-changing
- ‘You thrive on drama – this retreat is about grace and flow
- You are looking for party central – while our resort cellar is well-stocked and our butlers' make amazing cocktails we won't be overdoing it. I have a zero-tolerance policy for drugs
- You expect 24/7 perfection in your retreat leader and the retreat itself – I am a real person who is absolutely invested in your greatness … but I can’t control all of the elements all of the time. After many years of visiting Bali, I know this beautiful island has its own magic and grace that might not always meet exacting Western standards.
“Jen is extraordinarily kind and talented. She instantly transports all in her care to a safe place where we can focus on our own self-care. I have a deep and profound sense of relaxation and calm. I haven’t slept as deeply or well in years and I have felt much calmer about life in general. I can't recommend this experience highly enough.”
Anita, Brisbane

Gorgeous, secluded accommodation
Our retreat is located at a luxury, tropical boutique resort overlooking the Petanu River, 12 minutes’ drive from beautiful Ubud.
Amori offers luxury, peace and gracious Balinese hospitality. With an infinity pool suspended over the jungle, a luxurious yoga shala, day spa, jacuzzi and an onsite restaurant, there are endless options for relaxation.
Our retreat is for those of us who love mountain breezes, warm sunshine and breathtaking views of lush greenery and rice fields. The gorgeous location will see us immersed in nature with the sound of the river and local birdlife, dragonflies and butterflies.
Amori is also deeply connected to the local community, so we will enjoy unique insights into the sacred culture of Balinese village life not available elsewhere.
Photos below are from our resort. How gorgeous does it look?
Food and drinks
Fresh morning juices and a wide variety of delicious and wholesome Western and Balinese food will be on offer from the resort’s three chefs. Whether you are vegetarian, vegan or omnivore we will meet your needs.
"Working with Jen has given me clarity, confidence, and assurance in building my business - all from the perspective of the soul. I'm clear about what I need to do and why."
Lisa, Australia
Nurture yourself at our spa
Our resort's beautiful day spa offers treatments ranging from traditional Balinese massage and foot reflexology through to body scrubs, wraps, facials, manicures and pedicures. Attended by beautiful Balinese therapists you'll find everything you need to pamper yourself right here.
“When I’m working 1:1 with Jen, I don’t just feel listened to, I feel understood. I feel confident I can lead my own way and find the answers I need to live my best life. When I’m attending one of Jen’s workshops, I am always amazed at the momentum and growth I experience in the most gentle and nurtured space. Jen is always focused on self-love, self-belief and creating a space where my passions are welcome to thrive.”
Andrea, Australia
About Jen
Hi, I’m Jen and I'm a women's leadership and empowerment coach passionate about helping women to recognise their brilliance – to reconnect to their innate power, purpose and voice.
I do this through coaching programs and retreats. Retreat spaces especially can deliver clarity and transformation in ways we cannot imagine.
In these times of change, I believe it's vital for us to tap into our entire energetic field – so we can stop playing small and show up confidently in the world in a loving and empowered way. My path has involved 25 years in business, a long-time love affair with ancient wisdom, yoga and cutting-edge science and a side journey with anxiety. This adventure has shown me the vital importance of self-acceptance and love, personal frequency and remembering who we truly are. When we master these three elements, we open the door to more energy and joy every day and the chance to live our deepest desires.
The changes we're experiencing in our world right now call for a new way of being and doing. The old ways are no longer working. I have walked through my own dark night of the soul and know what it is like to come up for air and ask what's next.
I'm passionate about showing you how to harness your incredible life force so you can live those dreams languishing deep down in the bottom drawer of your heart just aching to be brought to life. With a degree in Business Communication and qualifications in yoga, reiki, Nia dance and sound healing, I help women reconnect with their greatness so they have more energy and can confidently live their purpose and shine their light in the next chapter of their lives.
The core premise – that we create our own reality and are truly connected to the divine – underpins ALL that I do. And I mean everything – from coaching, sound healing, podcasting, painting and producing transformational events through to the precious daily tasks of walking my dog Lucy or cooking for my family. This is the magic I want to share with you.
For more, visit jenramsey.com or listen to my podcast at yourfreedomunlimited.com.
“Reconnect was a wonderful experience filled with love, laughter and friendship. It was a safe and magical place to explore my relationship with my mother and settle it in a way that has brought me comfort and peace. I'm so thankful to have attended with Jen. If you want to truly connect with yourself and your essence, to be nurtured and have the personal space to plan the next chapter of your life it is a must-do. It was also a lot of fun.
I highly recommend Reconnect and look forward to spending more time in Bali with Jen as the retreat evolves.”
Leonie, Brisbane

Absolutely!
If you've read this far you know deep down you want this ... so let me give you some reasons why you deserve this:
- It's highly likely you give to everyone else in your life so now it's time for you to take some time for you!
- This is a chance for you to take a breath and reconnect with you and what's most important to you
- When was the last time you truly took a moment to relax? And no .. reading 2 pages of your book before you fall into an exhausted sleep does not equal relaxation time
- This is a chance to have some fun time out with like-minded women - who may just become lifelong friends and cheerleaders for your next endeavour.
Lovely one – you are one of a kind and your body is your temple!! I want you to celebrate you – no matter what you are wearing or who you are with. Embrace this as a chance to treat yourself to some gorgeous new swimmers, a sunhat and come and join me in the pool! We’ll have the sunscreen waiting!
If you identify as a woman, are non-binary or gender non-conforming and feel comfortable being in circle at a women's retreat, I welcome you.
I love yoga but I want you to know our kind of yoga is slow and in flow. Also … after many years of practising yoga I am is still not as flexible as I would like to be in the hamstrings .. it is what it is. I am all about acceptance and self-love … especially on the yoga mat. My yoga practice is completely optional so please do not use this as a reason to sit out the experience of a lifetime.
Yes you must have a passport and it must have six months validity before you enter Indonesia.
For most nationalities, you can apply for a VISA ON ARRIVAL at the Ngurah Rai airport in Denpasar (the airport code is: DPS) when you arrive in Bali. The visa is AU$50 or US$35 (payable by credit card on the spot) and is valid for 30 days with an option to extend for an extra 30 days.

Absolutely. You must have travel insurance to participate in this retreat. Your insurance needs to cover you for any illness, changes or cancellations that may arise as a result of COVID-19. Proof of travel insurance is required as a condition of attendance.
Businesses have annual retreats for a reason. Academics take sabbaticals for a reason.
To grow, all organisations (even very small ones) need structured time away with mentors to step out of their daily routines and have the space to reflect, rejuvenate and plan.
How many times have we promised ourselves we’ll make a change – but never put in place the plan to make it happen? Usually we get side-swiped by something unpleasant (like getting sick, losing a job, business or relationship) and then make the change.
What about investing in something that could help avoid all of that pain?
Time is also ticking. I don’t want to live with any regrets. I don’t want to get to 70 and say “I really wish I’d done XYZ.”
Taking time out now and making a plan for the next chapter of my life is the best thing I could do for me … and for you.
"Jen is such a great coach, she really ‘gets’ me and helps me find what I am looking for, without telling me what to do: it’s like she opens up the door for me to walk through. I see her as my ‘safe space’ - somewhere I can safely open up and discuss things and move forward. Jen is genuinely caring, emphatic and laser-sharp – I deeply value her and her incredible insights. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”

"Working with Jen has given me clarity, confidence, and assurance in building my business – all from the perspective of the soul. The clarity I’ve received is powerful.
Personally, Jen gives me the confidence to keep moving and going if I’m feeling unsure. She believes in me, and what I’m doing. I feel completely supported. She definitely wants the best for me, and my business. Her support and recommendations always come from a beautiful soul space so my aspirations are aligned. Jen has been a blessing and a guiding light in my life.”

Sharing the Love
A portion of the proceeds from our retreat will be donated to the Bali Street Mum's Project who work to remove mothers and children begging in Bali's tourist spots. Bali Street Mum's Project provides the mothers and children with food and accommodation. They work to lift the mothers and children out of the cycle they are in by giving the children education and to train the mothers in creating crafts and jewellery for sale.
I have spent a lot of time in Bali and have a great love for the high frequency and healing energy of this beautiful island and its gentle people. This is a little way to give back to Bali, so it is my honour to provide some support through this event.
It's Time to Celebrate You
It's time for you to celebrate you. To listen to the call of your heart and come home to yourself at Reconnect: The Retreat.
Reconnect is an opportunity for you to reset – to give yourself time and space to relax and revitalise. It is also a chance for you to connect with your innate wisdom so you have the clarity, energy and support you need for the next chapter of your life.
Imagine the joy of coming home to you and celebrating all that you are now. Picture yourself relaxing and taking the space and time to connect with your inner-most desires for your future.
With much love and light.
Jen xo
