The Retreat by Valerie Jana

for women building brands with meaning

What to Expect

A three-day creative intensive where founders step away from the business to find the story, clarify the strategy, and create the visual world around what they're building.

❋ 01 — Write Your FoundHer Story

We blend guided moments, open exploration, and space to reflect—so the experience feels both focused and fluid.

❋ Get Creative Consultation

Connection is a core part of the process. You’ll learn just as much from the group as from the content itself.

❋ Facilitation Team for Creative Direction

Led by experienced guides who know how to hold space, encourage participation, and keep things moving with purpose.

❋ A Supportive Space in Nature

Our events prioritize comfort, safety, and respect—so you can show up as you are and fully engage in the process.

Day Two

Set Intentions & Reflect

Together, we pause to consider our goals, hopes, and direction. This is about aligning with ourselves and with the journey ahead. This is a chance to reconnect with what brought you here—your questions, your hopes, your turning points—and consider how they’ve shifted or deepened.

  • "She has a way of bringing people together that feels effortless. What I appreciate most is that she's both incredibly creative and incredibly organized—a combination that's hard to find. She communicates clearly, follows through on every detail, and somehow makes everyone involved feel welcome and valued."

    Brooke Savona, Founder of Flora Vintage

  • “Valerie doesn’t hesitate to brainstorm and explore channels with like minded entrepreneurs to support our small brands and maximize our loud voices. She has created a community of women (as far as I know) who make things happen.”
