What if your next big breakthrough didn’t happen in a zoom meeting or a brainstorming session - but in the stillness of nature?
In this episode of The Essential Shift Podcast, I’m joined by Stephanie, the visionary behind Fern Valley Retreat - a soulful, eco-glamping haven tucked in rural New Zealand.
We talk about the intuitive nudge that changed her family’s entire life trajectory, what it really takes to build a retreat space from scratch, and why stepping away to rest is essential for women in business.
Get ready to re-treat!

ABOUT THE GUEST
Stéph is the heart and soul behind Fern Valley Retreat. Together with her husband Mike, she left behind the hustle of Auckland to follow her heart after falling in love with a rural property south of Tauranga, New Zealand. Driven by a deep belief in the power of nature to enhance well-being, she created an off-the-grid glamping escape - a place where guests can reconnect with nature without sacrificing comfort.
Bless it be.
With love,
Laetitia
