Held at the stunning Hillside in Carool Northern NSW, this retreat has been lovingly curated to nurture you fully in mind, body and soul.
It’s 5 days to step away from the daily grind to pause, and reset your life and business. A time to be taken care of and be given the space to replenish and reflect on how you want to move forward and do things differently. A chance to have powerful conversations and intimate gatherings with like-minded women who can help empower and expand you in ways you didn’t think possible.
When was the last time you took time for you? And I don’t mean an hour or two. I mean proper time. A week to step away from your life, hit pause, be taken care of, reflect and reset.
I have dreamed up the most beautiful retreat and curated a really special intimate getaway for you. If you’ve worked with me, you know the value that a few hours can deliver to your life and business. Imagine how you’ll feel after 5 days.
This all-inclusive retreat is designed to nurture YOU, to let you gently unfold and come back to YOU! No cooking, cleaning, school drop offs, noise or errands to run. It’s your turn to be taken care of and create space for you. You are the main focus.
You will leave feeling supported on a whole new level, grounded and with the know how to take back control in your life and business. Ideas will flow and you’ll be creating for your business from a new replenished place. Investing in this time and space for you will have a flow on effect in your home and business over the coming months.
The retreat will be a nurturing sensory experience to rest your body, clear your mind and feed your soul. I know from the women that my business attracts, it will be a special group that will hold space for each other. You are likely all going through similar things and together, we create a really safe space to take time out, share and focus on your self development to create a better business on the other side.
It can be really hard to work out the next steps or have clarity when you are in the thick of it. This retreat is the perfect opportunity to step away from life, reflect and get really intentional on what you want life and business to look like. It's the first steps towards creating the peace so many of us desire.
Unfold is more than time away, it’s an invitation to come back to yourself. Created and led by Mentor & Business Strategist Kate Addamo. This retreat is for the woman who’s ready to remember who she is beneath the noise and expand to her next level. She is ambitious, but she knows that to reach her next level a pause and a reset are necessary. Set at a beautiful hinterland homestead designed for deep restoration, Unfold offers a rare opportunity to step out of your daily life and into a slower pace that nurtures your body, mind and spirit.
Leave feeling deeply replenished and ready to unfold into the next version of you... intentionally and fully. Watch what happens to your business growth on your return.
I’ve learnt some easy practical techniques to implement into my daily life to keep me in the present. I've learnt so much about myself in a few short days. How to protect that vulnerable side and how to release control and let things naturally happen through my feminine side. Without Kate in my life, I wouldn’t have been able to invite in these magnificent teachings. I’m so grateful for her gentle guidance over the past 7 years, and even more from my experience on her retreat. It’s the best value for money! Kate has your back all the way. She has lots of little surprises up her sleeve and you will leave feeling lighter and excited to implement a new way of being.

Meeting Kate in person was amazing, and the space she held and created for us felt like heaven on earth. I was able to release old wounds, doubts, and limiting beliefs that had been holding me back, leading to powerful shifts within myself—I hardly recognised who I was by the end of it, in the best possible way! Every moment was so special, from being nurtured, heard and cared for to connecting with others on such a deep level. I feel incredibly lucky to have been part of this, and I only wish we could do it every year. Words truly can't describe it, but it’s an experience I’ll carry with me forever.

If you’re on the fence, trust me just book it. I went in with some nerves and reservations, but now, on the other side, I realize how much I would have missed had I not taken the leap.
Kate is a truly remarkable person, she challenges you to grow while offering such a soft, safe place to land. The experience was incredible, and I’ll carry the memories and connections with the other women for years to come. Every detail of the retreat was thoughtfully planned with so much love and care. The setting was absolutely divine, allowing me to feel deeply rested, safe, and ready to unfold.
A huge thank you to Kate, Bridget, Sarah, Alicia, Vanessa, and Jodi, our amazing masseuse, who each added something unique to the experience. The biggest, most unexpected gift was how rejuvenated my body feels, I feel totally reset and grounded. If you’re considering it, this is your sign. 100% go for it!

Hidden away in the Gold Coast hinterlands, just over the border in NSW, Hillside Carool is a special property with an incredible energy that needs to be felt. The homestead and beautiful grounds face the rolling hills and extend out to the ocean. It's hard to put into words, but "Hillside" is so grounding and the perfect space to unfold on retreat. From the pool lined with Bungalow Palms to the spa, fire pit, pizza oven, sauna and views, "Hillside" is a property like no other. This will likely be the last retreat I will be hosting for the foreseeable future, so if it's been on your wish list, now is the time!

Kate took care of everything - from the most amazing food (prepared & served by a very talented young lady and her mum), to the nurturing in so many ways from Kate herself and as a result... the friendships made along the way. Thank you Kate for helping me find my way during this time and more so allowing me to be part of your community.
I left the retreat with a renewed sense of purpose, and with crystal clear clarity on what I will be introducing into my life to create more balance and grounding. I hand-on-heart recommend this retreat to any woman who wants to learn more about herself and who wants to step into a higher version of herself.
The friends I have gained are the most amazing group of women and we all quickly connected on a level I didn't think was possible. The attention to detail Kate put into the retreat was incredible - every part of it was so thoughtfully planned and it was absolutely perfect! The venue, the food, the program, the sessions, everything was amazing! I can't wait to attend another one of Kate's retreats in the future and if you are thinking of going to one, just do it - I can't recommend it enough! Thank you so much Kate!
