Two years ago, we were on a cruise in Ha Long Bay with a group of entrepreneurs. It was one of the most magical experiences I’ve had, and somewhere in the middle of it, I pictured myself teaching there, running a program on a boat in that exact bay.
That image is the reason Vietnam became the location for our next retreat.
For me, this retreat is where the most advanced methodology I work with comes to life, growing exponentially each time. The challenge is always the same: bring the tools and build an experience that creates a powerful, lasting transformation.
Right now I’m refining every detail, day by day, including a few surprises for the participants. I genuinely don’t know all of them myself yet. That part, I love.
What participants never see is the energy spent envisioning the experience as a process, both from where I guide it and from where they’ll feel it unfold. The goal is for everything to flow, nothing forced. When I can’t decide alone, I call Stefan, Elena, or a close colleague, lay out the dilemma, and listen until I have clarity.
When I think about day one, the moment we all meet in Hanoi, I already feel that effervescence, the sense of stepping into transformation together, knowing we’ll leave as a different version of ourselves.
One detail matters deeply to me: coherence. I want this to feel like one experience built start to finish, not a retreat with activities stacked on top. The fluid, creative work we do on water is meant to be grounded and made tangible once we’re on land.
And then there’s rhythm, the parts we can’t plan or control: a storm, the weather, something breaking. When that happens, I return to trusting it’s happening for a reason, and look for the larger purpose it holds for the group. That’s how a setback becomes a chance for growth.
Retreats, for me, are a way of connecting deeply with a small group. We spend so much time together that meeting again two years later feels like picking up a conversation from yesterday.
I can’t wait to see our participants next week at Infinite Inner Wealth in Business retreat in Vietnam!
