AN INVITATION
Five days at a restored Catalan masia for women returning to themselves. We gather in stone walls and nature, where mornings begin slow. This is rest with intention; movement with meaning; conversation that goes somewhere; and food that becomes part of the conversation, prepared by SALT + SIS.

The team
The women holding the week.
A host, two practitioners, and a sister-led kitchen. Each brings something distinct to the retreat and together, they create the kind of environment where women can actually exhale. Unhurried, unpretentious, and quietly exceptional.
Laura has spent her career navigating strategy, operations, and business development across industries and cultures. Always with an instinct for people and a bias toward getting things right. Moving from the US to Spain four years ago changed her relationship with time, place, and what a truly good experience can feel like. Costa Brava, specifically, stayed with her.
Her.d is her answer to that. A space for driven women to step away from the noise, find their people, and grow a community that actually means something. She curates every detail of that space herself. Nothing is left to chance. Everything is left to feel effortless along with the rest of the team
Stéphanie is a certified psychologically sensitive yoga teacher, women's health specialist, and birth doula. Her work has taken her across the US, France, and Spain. She has guided meditation, mindfulness, and yoga in corporate environments including McKinsey, Leo Burnett, WeWork, and Gensler Architects, as well as studios and individual practice. At Her.d, she leads the mornings and holds the evenings guiding women through movement, breath, and the kind of stillness that actually restores. She doesn't push. She creates the conditions for women to land and leave feeling more like themselves than when they arrived.
Originally from France, married to an Argentinian, and raising her two Chicago-born children in Barcelona.

yoga & wellness PRACTICE GUIDE
Diana has spent two decades inside the corporate world, leading marketing, communication, and customer experience across Latin American markets. She knows what it means to perform at that level and what it costs when there is no space to come up for air.
Now, as a certified Life Coach and Inner Leadership & Conscious Growth Mentor, she brings both worlds into the room. The strategic sharpness of someone who has operated at the top, and the depth of someone who has done the inner work to know what sustains it. At Her.d, she holds the space where clarity replaces noise and women leave with something they didn't have when they arrived.
A sister-led private chef concept by Maxime and Michelle, redefining what it means to experience food in a group setting. Rooted in bold flavors, thoughtful composition, and effortless hospitality, their work centers around creating spaces where people connect, unwind, and recharge.
Their signature style blends refined cooking with a generous, shared-table approach designed to feel both elevated and deeply human. Their food is not just served. It becomes part of the experience, supporting energy, conversation, and connection throughout the retreat.
the venue
02
Finca Mas Bou.
A restored Catalan estate hidden in the hills of the Empordà, minutes from the Costa Brava coast. Stone walls, art-filled interiors, and gardens that open onto pine-scented light. Every bedroom is en-suite. Meals are taken al fresco. Evenings, we gather again under the stars. Days begin with yoga at sunrise and end with conversations that go somewhere real. In between, you treat yourself to stillness, to a massage, to a sauna session to the kind of afternoon that reminds you what rest actually feels like.
03
THE ACTIVITIES
The Five Days
Five days in the Empordà structured enough to feel held, spacious enough to feel free. Two leadership workshops, a coastal hike, a wine tasting, cultural immersion, creative expression, a treatment and sauna sessions woven throughout. Mornings start with movement. Evenings end well. The week builds to something and more importantly, sends you home with more than you arrived with.
