March 27th - March 31st 2025
Join me this Spring in the heart of Marrakech, where my soul feels most at home. Expect an intimate retreat focused on resetting your lifestyle and embracing wellness, radiance and longevity. Whether you’re new to self-care or a seasoned enthusiast, this retreat is your opportunity for a fresh start and healthier, more vibrant skin.

Designed to inspire an everyday lifestyle that nourishes the skin, deepens your connection with nature and allows you time to pause. Your journey will focus around essential skincare routines, nourishing your body from within and adapting sustainable habits to keep your skin glowing long after the retreat ends.
Nestled in the enchanting old medina, my retreat will be a small gathering of just 6-12 people. You’ll stay in two beautiful, connected Riads with six bedrooms, making this the perfect opportunity to come solo or bring a friend.
Over these few days, I’ll guide you through the essentials of a healthy skincare routine, teach you how to nourish your body from within, and share daily rituals that have transformed my life.
This isn’t just about pampering yourself while you’re here - it’s about adopting simple, sustainable habits that will keep your skin glowing long after the retreat ends.

Founder of Pause Skin Clinic.
With over 24 years in the industry, I’m a skin expert, passionate geek and founder of Pause, dedicated to helping people find confidence and love in their skin through an all-natural, long-lasting approach.
My passion goes beyond skin health; it’s about reclaiming confidence, finding calm and restoring balance. I believe in healing, not masking, and that begins by allowing our bodies to rest, recharge and pause.

The red city.
This is my true sanctuary, where my soul finds peace. Take time to immerse yourself in the local culture and embrace the spirit of Morocco. Explore the fascinating corners of the Medina, uncover hidden treasures and visit my favourite dining spots.
My passion for interiors began in those early years exploring the markets, and it's still where I often escape for my own pause. In Marrakech, you get the best of both worlds - the lively energy of the city and the tranquil retreat of a riad, which serves as my little safe haven in this world.

A riad in Marrakech is a traditional Moroccan house with an interior garden or courtyard, offering a peaceful retreat in the historic medina. Featuring intricate tile work, rich greenery and vibrant colours, riads are where my soul feels most at home. Including a rooftop terrace for views of the city to admire with some morning yoga or wholesome breakfast.
