Why should you come?
Because sometimes the fastest way to move forward is to step away for a few days.
This get together gives you the space to train, fuel, and reset without the distractions of daily life—so you can build momentum that actually lasts when you get home.
No extremes. No pressure to be perfect. Just great workouts, good food, good friends, and a few days focused on you—so getting back into real life feels easier, not harder.
If you want a reset that’s productive and fun, this is it.
How many people will be there?
I am capping the registration at 20 women. This will be a small group. I have found the most meaningful connections come with small groups and I want this get-together to be as meaningful for the attendees as possible.
I'm not sure if I should do a photoshoot. I want to but I'm nervous.
I totally get that! I was nervous before my first photoshoot too but I cannot recommend that you do it any more highly than just saying that it will be life-changing! You will have support to do it, too.
-We will do a preview call with Paul so you get to know him beforehand (he's one of the nicest people ever!)
-You will have support for your prep deciding on your "looks" etc. You won't be left to figure this our by yourself.
Also, if you'd like me to connect you with a previous client that has done a photoshoot with Paul previously to help put you at ease, I'll be more than happy to do that!
I'm in! How do I hold my spot?
A $500 CAD deposit is required to reserve your spot.
All payments must be completed by April 1, 2026, at which point your registration is fully confirmed.
What is the refund policy?
A $500 CAD deposit is required to hold your spot and is non-refundable.
From February 15 to April 1, 2026, payments are non-refundable but may be transferred to a future BBAA retreat or another BBAA offering.
After April 1, 2026, all payments are final and non-refundable.
*I also strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance to protect against unforeseen circumstances.
I'm not sure yet. How can I stay in touch about it?
