All of this takes place in a rustic setting that encourages authenticity, curiosity, and shared experience.
Imagine what becomes possible when you are deeply supported, encouraged, and inspired to step into your full potential. Through our trusted affiliate partner, we offer transformational coaching and mentoring designed to empower you and the people around you to rise with confidence and clarity.

In a world that moves faster every day, finding space to breathe, connect, and grow has never been more important. A Ray of Light, a UK-wide provider of bespoke group experiences designed to help people reconnect with their authentic selves in nature-rich, rustic environments.
Why Rustic?
The concept is simple yet powerful: step away from polished boardrooms and digital overload, and immerse yourself in an environment that sparks curiosity and exploration.
