MEET LIKE MINDED GALS AT THE SUMMER CAMP FOR ADULTS
Are you ready for a weekend filled with laughter and friendship?
✨ Join Young Women with Purpose on the Mornington Peninsula for our summer camp for adults, a retreat where child-like play meets self-care, because why should kids have all the fun?
Think warm days on the water, breathwork, an evening at the hot springs, flower arranging, cups of tea on the deck, crafternoons, acknowledgements, and so much more 😍
At our retreat, we will focus on connection, healing, play, and the magic of being women.
You will walk away feeling connected, relaxed, and excited to bring the element of play back home with you.
Don’t miss out—book your spot today! 🌟
Our retreat will be held at Iluka Retreat, just a few minutes from Shoreham Beach!
Stay at Aulua Lodge in a camp-style share room, where you will get to share a room with your new besties, wake up to native wildlife, and take strolls around the massive property and the lake in your free time. With a kitchen where our chef will be preparing and serving your meals, a lounge area for everyone to hang out in, and space to breathe, it really feeds the soul.
Aulua Lodge is a traditional school camp lodge with a large communal bathroom and shared living spaces.
We are also offering glamping tents for the gals who want to be a part of the group, but also want some extra space at night.
Glamping tent inclusions:
Accommodation for two in a styled traditional Glamping Tent
Canvas/weatherproof tent pitched with outdoor seating
Single beds made up with fresh linen and towels
Access to the powered camp kitchen and shared toilet/shower block
Please note that the bell tents are NOT powered. A lantern is provided for your back-to-nature experience and we suggest bringing a head torch. All other areas such as the kitchen and bathrooms do have power.
Dive headfirst into the magic of the Peninsula - unpack, get cosy in your rooms, and meet all the gals
Start the weekend off together as we kickstart your weekend packed with love, play, and girlhood!
We'll meet together in the lounge to introduce our team, share weekend logistics, and then jump into speed friending (like speed dating, but to make new besties)
We're got fun prompts for you to ask/answer each round, so no one will be stuck with the boring "what do you do for work" fluff.
Were you a florist in a past life? Have a laugh while trying your hand at flower arranging. Bring your masterpiece to your room, the lounge, or create a centrepiece for the dining table!
Head to a local restaurant together!
Dinner is on us, all you need to pay for are your drinks
Greet the day with a gentle yoga by the lake, starting the day with a juicy stretch.
Connect to your feminine & inner child, create the foundations of new friendships, and go delightfully deep
Head down to the beach for a surf lesson with giggles, jow, and looking like an absolute goose. Don't want to surf? Bring your book, some crafts, or just enjoy the show.
Have a relaxing afternoon with the gals as you get crafty.
Be guided through a group craft project, or you can choose your own adventure with paints or beads!
After a big day of play, head to the famous hot springs for an evening of relaxing in the pools with the squad
Head to the lake for a morning on the water taking in the sounds of nature and waking up your body
Come together in circle for time to share, learn, listen, and celebrate the magic of our cycles
Look back on the weekend we have had, love on your friends, and (if you're like Hazel) shed tears of gratitude all while enjoying a lovely lunch
As your stay comes to an end, please ensure all personal belongings are packed before leaving your room. Give everyone a big hug and start your drive home feeling lighter, connected, and full of love.
We have an INCREDIBLE chef joining us on retreat to nourish everyone. We may be running a "Summer Camp" retreat, but that assignment is not given to our chef! With fresh, healthy, and delicious meals that won't just taste good, but will also be so good for you, you won't want to go home!

Itinerary Changes: Please note that there may be slight changes to the itinerary between now and the retreat due to weather, suppliers, or us simply wanting to make the Summer Camp even more magical.
Travel Insurance: We recommend that you consider travel insurance that covers cancellation fees in case of unforeseen circumstances.
Cancellation Policy: At Young Women with Purpose, we understand that life can be unpredictable. However, to ensure fairness and manage expectations for all participants and organizers, we have established the following cancellation policy for our retreats:
Full Refund: If you need to cancel your participation in the retreat, you can do so without any financial penalty 60+ days before the start date of the retreat. You will receive a full refund of any fees paid.
Partial Refund: Cancellations made within 15-59 days of the retreat's start date are eligible for 50% of your payment to be transferred to a future retreat, and 50% payment will be forfeited. We recognize that circumstances can change, and this policy is designed to balance flexibility with the need for prior planning and organization.
Non-Refundable: Any cancellations made within 14 days of the retreat's commencement are non-refundable and full payment will be forfeited. At this late stage, most of the arrangements and expenses for the retreat are already committed, and it becomes challenging to accommodate changes.
As kids our whole job is to play, but as we get older and take on responsibilities, we stop seeing play as important or necessary. I'm here to change that!
I am a neuro-spicy outdoor educator and event coordinator who has spent the past 11 years working with both young people and adults in my various ventures. From coordinating and facilitating school camps, to sea kayak guiding in the Canadian wilderness, to running my own retreat-based business for mums and daughters, I have a strong passion for working with young people and women and going deep into the feminine work (Think relationships, feminine and masculine energies, communication, connection, and play).
I am an advocate for young people who are neurodivergent and use my own experiences to show my friends and clients that their brains aren’t broken or wrong, but simply different in their own fun ways and something to be celebrated.
I strive to create a judgement free space that allows others to be their weird, wild, emotional, silly selves! Your differences are what make you amazing and you're allowed to feel the full range of emotions. In fact, the messier you get, the better!
