121 career immersion on the banks of the River Exe

The Retreat is our exclusive 121 career immersion held in Topsham in Devon. Here we have a self-contained waterside property, with beautiful views across the River Exe and out to sea.

The property has open access to the countryside (by foot, bike or various watercraft). It is an idyllic location to step back and properly reflect through a structured exploratory programme.

Each day we will explore new topics and let the subject percolate, by giving you time to reflect on your own or discuss through either indoor or outdoor coaching. This can be with Gareth, the course facilitator or with experts we believe will be pertinent to your particular need.

We make the experience life enhancing, so can start the day with exercises like Qigong, to promote your overall well-being and enhance your energy levels.

Topsham is under 2.5hrs from London Paddington and typically we let you settle in the first evening, then have 2 days of active discussion and development, mixed in with escapes into the local countryside.

The Retreat typical schedule

The Retreat schedules are tailored to the individual, but a typical schedule would be:

Pre-work	Depending on your situation, we can give you some simple exercises to think about in advance, so we can start to unpack these when you arrive. We recognise this isn’t always possible, so will be guided by you and the goals you want to achieve.
Day 1	We typically will start in the afternoon, get to know each other and re-establish the key outcomes you want to achieve. We then discuss your career journey so far and explore the highs and lows. We get the best out of the session when we can get ‘behind the mask’ or the day role, so we will work through exercises to understand who you really are on a great day but importantly the really tough days too, which will highly shape you are, your values and your purpose. We’ll then explore future state and where you want to get to and discuss what would need to change to achieve this. These discussions will be in our facilities but mixed with outdoor coaching. The physical movement or walking or engaging in an outdoor activity stimulates cognitive function and creativity, has a calming effect and reduces anxiety, boosts energy levels, and allows deeper self-reflection and clarity of thinking. Food and refreshments will be available throughout the day. In the evening you will have free time to ….
Day 2	Cell
Day 3	Cell

Benefits of outdoor coaching

Every day we spend hours on screens, which we believe can close down our ability to think clearly.

To counter this at the retreat encourages more open conversation and allows the time and space to discuss topics deeply.

Part of this involves simply getting outside and talking.

The physical movement or walking or engaging in an outdoor activity stimulates cognitive function and creativity, has a calming effect and reduces anxiety, boosts energy levels, and allows deeper self-reflection and clarity of thinking.
