Description
✨ LUMINOUS ✨
Welcome to Luminous Retreat, held in the beautiful Tallebudgera Valley, QLD. 🌿
Luminous is a lush, nourishing immersion for heart-led women: the creatives, artists, facilitators and entrepreneurs who want to begin the year with real clarity about their next chapter, and step into 2027 with more expression, pleasure, prosperity & sisterhood.
There is something incredibly powerful about women coming together to support each other in making their visions come to life.
Alongside world-class transformational workshops and inspirational entertainment, Luminous is also a place to unwind by the pool and connect with other soulful women.
We'll also celebrate together with a dance party 💃 and an open mic night. 🎤
WHAT WILL YOU WALK AWAY WITH? ✨
🌅 Clarity on your 2027 vision. Through embodied creative processes, you'll walk away knowing what you're calling in for 2027, grounded in your body.
🪞 A personal brand that feels more like you. Exploring your bold branding archetypes, you'll gain fresh insight into how to express more of who you really are in your business, so you can stand out in your industry and make money doing what you love.
🎤 Authentic confidence to be seen and heard. Learning the basic principles of the Meisner Acting Technique you'll feel more present, connected and at home in yourself, whether you're on a stage, shooting a video for social media or in your intimate relationships.
📖 Storytelling structures. You'll learn simple, powerful ways to shape your stories so people feel them and remember you.
💰 Taking money as a lover. Exploring your unique money personality and learning a range of prosperity practices, you'll experience more peace with your finances.
🌹 Pleasure as a practice. Where healthy delicious chocolate and devotional nurturing touch can become a powerful force for creating the life and business you desire.
👯♀️ New friends, collaborators and clients. You'll be surrounded by heart-led, creative women who get it. Many of the connections made over these three days have the potential to become friendships, collaborations and business relationships that last well beyond the weekend.
🎶 JOY. Dancing. Singing. Belly laughs. The kind of memories that will stay with you.
🌿 Nourishment. Walking away feeling nourished after XMAS and NYE. The perfect getaway for you to focus on you and your visions.
Most of all, you'll leave remembering who you are when you're fully alive. And you'll carry that luminous version of yourself into the whole year ahead. ✨

Penny Michelle
Penny Michelle is a facilitator, community builder and creator of experiences designed to bring women together for meaningful connection, expression and a whole lot of joy. Originally from Canada and now living in the lush Tallebudgera Valley, Penny created The Resonance Room, an intimate retreat space nestled amongst the trees. Her vision was to create a place where people could experience the beauty and grounding presence of nature while feeling the warmth, comfort and safety of being held at home. Penny is passionate about movement, embodiment, creativity, music and creating spaces where women can drop the roles they play in everyday life and reconnect with the parts of themselves that want to be expressed. A natural connector and host, she loves bringing inspiring people together and creating the conditions for unexpected conversations, collaborations, friendships and ideas to emerge. Luminous Retreat is an expression of everything Penny loves, women gathering, dreaming bigger and supporting one another to bring their ideas to life. Her intention is that every woman leaves feeling more connected, more expressed and genuinely excited about what she is creating in 2027.
