DEEP WRITING AND REFLECTION RETREAT

Mountains of Marrakech | December 2-4, 2026 | Reserve Your Space at the Capaldi

Why Join This Retreat?

Three benefits you can realize from attending the 3 Day Mastermind in Marrakech this December

Get quiet and hear yourself

I'm the biggest proponent of 'getting quiet' and hearing yourself. In this gorgeous retreat, outside bustling Marrakech, get quiet. What stories are bubbling up as you engage in the guided writing blocks.

Teach something

My biggest growth edge is when someone asks me to give a keynote or teach a module.

What IS the problem I solve in the world?

YOU will teach for 20 minutes, by leaning into your superpower.

You pick what that is.

Be in community

There is a beautiful group of women who have come together each December to be in communit y and experience a new country.

Be in this space together.

What previous retreat clients are saying

"At Joya’s Paris Retreat, I was expecting to have breakthroughs, but I was surprised at how much confidence I gained through the experiences and the relationships I forged"

- Bridgett Strickler

VP, Coalition Strategy, CAEL

"The class at Van Cleef & Arpels at Joya’s Paris retreat helped me recognize the necessary work that goes into fine jewlery making, and quite frankly comforted me as I do research for my Substack posts and my book to make them exquisite too."

- Hillary Sobel

CEO & Founder, Minerva Turning Point Strategies, LLC

"On Joya’s Paris Retreat, I realized I don't have to conform to some 'canned role' of what leadership looks like.  The private tour of the Gallerie Dior in Paris reminded me how each Creative Director that succeeded Christian Dior was a rebel in his or her own right - taking their vision, blending it with the legacy of the house."

- Katie Goar, CEO

Quadel

I have hosted 4 retreats in Marrakech. It keeps me coming back again and again.


Of all the Moroccan cities, Marrakech is the most magical. It has a whisper to it, unlike any other.

Marrakech isn’t convenient.
And that’s the point.

Transformation doesn’t happen in convenience.

5️⃣ It Feels Mythic

The lanterns.
The riads.
The desert.
The call to prayer echoing over rooftops.

It feels like a threshold crossing.

And your work is about crossing thresholds as you cross into 2027.

What previous retreat clients are saying

On Joya’s intensive with me in Barcelona, I created two powerful digital assets that capture my unique leadership framework—work I’d been putting off for years.


-Janice Whaley,

CEO, Donor Network West


On Joya’s retreat in Croatia, I turned a failed deal into a better one. I had mental white space to reflect, reset, and reimagine my next move.

- Divya Tandon, SJI Property, Real Estate Investor

I ended up doing so many things outside my comfort zone on Joya’s Retreat in Turkey that I thoroughly enjoyed. Not to mention making new friends and adding this type of trip on my annual ‘must do’ list. It was both a personal and professional development opportunity for me that I would do again.
