EVER FEEL STUCK IN THE ROLES YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO PLAY?
You’ve built a career, checked all the boxes, done the thing.
And yet… do you ever feel like:
no matter how much you achieve, it’s never enough?
you’re constantly taking care of everyone else—and somehow, you get lost in the shuffle?
the fire that once fueled you is dimming, and you’re not even sure why?
YOU’RE NOT ALONE!
So many of us wear masks — of perfectionism, pleasing, and performing — that keep us safe but also keep us small.
FROM ROLE TO SOUL IS YOUR INVITATION TO DROP THE MASKS AND STEP FULLY INTO THE MOST REAL, UNAPOLOGETIC, ALIVE VERSION OF YOU.
“BEING GIVEN SO MUCH SPACE TO SAVOR AND THINK AND ENJOY AND REST UNLOCKED THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN LAYING QUIETLY IN WAIT IN THE CORNERS OF MY BRAINT FOR YEARS NOW.”
- CARLA, NOVEMBER 2024 GUEST
A LITTLE TASTE OF LIFE - POST JOURNEYING TOGETHERIMAGINE WALKING AWAY FEELING LIGHTER; FREER, AND DEEPLY RECONNECTED WITH WHAT REALLY MATTERS.
Waking up every day with a sense of clarity and purpose, knowing exactly who you are and what you’re working toward. Picture yourself no longer weighed down by old stories, expectations, or self-doubt—free to live authentically and unapologetically as the person you were always meant to be. This is the transformation waiting for you: a life that aligns with your values, where you feel deeply connected to yourself and others, and where every decision feels intentional and empowering. Through this journey, you’ll let go of the habits and beliefs that no longer serve you, rediscover your inner wisdom, and gain the tools to create a life that’s not just successful on the outside but deeply fulfilling on the inside. The changes you make now will ripple out into every part of your life—your relationships, your work, your health—and the legacy you leave behind.
THIS IS YOUR TIME TO STOP LIVING ON AUTOPILOT AND STEP FULLY INTO THE LIFE YOU DESERVE.
THIS IMMERSIVE JOURNEY IS ABOUT PEELING BACK THE LAYERS AND REDISCOVERING YOU.
Release the pressure to be perfect.
Let go of impossible expectations and find joy in just being.
Reclaim your power.
Lead with courage, vulnerability, and heart—on your terms.
Reconnect with what fulfills you.
Align your work, your life, and your purpose in a way that feels right.
THROUGH DEEP CONVERSATIONS, TRANSFORMATIVE EXPERIENCES, AND MOMENTS OF REAL, SOUL-FILLING CONNECTION WITH LIKE-MINDED WOMEN WHO SUPPORT AND INSPIRE YOU, YOU WON’T JUST LEAVE FEELING CHANGED — YOU’LL LEAVE FEELING LIKE YOURSELF AGAIN.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECTWE KICK THINGS OFF BY GETTING YOU GROUNDED IN A DEEP SENSE OF BELONGING —BECAUSE LET’S BE REAL, BIG TRANSFORMATION HAPPENS WHEN YOU FEEL SAFE, SEEN, AND SUPPORTED.
Through gentle group connection and mindful practices, you’ll settle into a space where you can finally exhale and start exploring what’s been stirring inside you.
Then, we get into the juicy part: letting go of the impossible standards you’ve been carrying for way too long. Through reflection, honest conversations, and shared stories, we’re shaking off that perfectionism and embracing the messy, beautiful, real you.
Next up? Dismantling the story that says your worth is tied to your achievements (spoiler: it’s not). Through eye-opening discussions and transformative practices, you’ll start leading from a place of wholeness—not hustle.
And because real freedom comes from knowing and honoring your own needs, we’ll help you take back your power. That means setting boundaries that actually stick and standing tall in who you are—without guilt, without apology.
Then, it’s time to dream big. Through heart-centered rituals and visionary exercises, you’ll reconnect with what you truly want, beyond all the “shoulds” and expectations. You’ll remember what lights you up—and why it still matters.
Finally, we bring it all together. With a closing ceremony to honor everything you’ve uncovered, you’ll leave feeling rooted, ready, and ridiculously clear about the next steps on your path. No more second-guessing—just you, fully in your power, walking forward with confidence and purpose.
See our FAQs for a more linear outline.
THE EXPERIENCE IS INCREDIBLE, DUH... BUT THE REAL MAGIC IS THE WAY OUR GUESTS START SHOWING UP AFTER THEY LEAVE. FROM ROLE to SOUL IS A COMMUNITY OF LIKE-MINDED SOULS, THAT WILL CONTINUE TO BE A CATALYST FOR MAKING BRAVER DECISIONS ONCE YOU LAND BACK HOME.
IS THIS FOR YOU?IF YOU’RE A WOMAN WHO CREATES, WHO LEADS, WHO DOES, WHO’S READY TO DITCH THE MASKS AND STEP INTO SOMETHING REAL, THIS IS FOR YOU.
You are someone who:
wants to live and lead with more authenticity.
Is so over perfectionism, overwork, and that nagging voice of self-doubt.
Feels the pull to reconnect with your inner wisdom and a deeper sense of purpose.
know there’s more to life than checking boxes and chasing external success.
You want to shift from doing and achieving to being and feeling fully alive.
You’re ready to break free from the roles and expectations that no longer serve you.
You long for meaningful connection — with yourself, with others, with something greater.
You feel the quiet (or maybe loud) nudge that now is the time to embrace change.
You want to experience personal growth in a way that feels embodied, soulful, and real.
You crave a space where you don’t have to be everything for everyone — just yourself.
You’re ready to reclaim joy, presence, and deep self-trust.
If you’re craving more than just a retreat — if you’re ready for a real transformation — From Role to Soul is calling your name!
WHY IS THIS DIFFERENT?This isn’t about pressing pause on your life for a few days. It’s about changing how you show up in it—every single day. Unlike traditional retreats, From Role to Soul isn’t just a getaway. It’s a deep, soul-level reset.
Through guided practices, sacred rituals, and powerful group work, you’ll peel back the layers, reconnect with yourself, and walk away with real tools to bring this transformation into your daily life.
This is a space of true connection, deep authenticity, and meaningful action—where healing happens, breakthroughs are made, and you remember who you really are.
THIS IS MORE THAN JUST A JOURNEY — IT’S A TRANSFORMATION.
What past participants are saying:
MEET YOUR HOSTS
-
I’m Andrea, also go by “Ada”, and for years, I thrived in high-performance spaces—founding a digital agency in my early 20s, I embarked upon a twenty-year career in marketing and advertising, during which I lived in Hamburg, Paris, Cape Town, New York and Berlin. Working for some of the world’s most prominent and creative global brands. I was outwardly successful and content, supported by loving relationships, yet often felt overwhelmed and alone, longing for a deeper sense of purpose and answers to my past. The constant striving, the endless deadlines—it was all taking me further from myself.
I knew there had to be a different way. Adjacent to my career I studied and practiced modern and ancient healing systems and trained in different coaching and body mind healing modalities. In 2017, I made the leap from strategy and execution to fulltime facilitation, coaching, and somatic therapy—work that helps people reconnect with their inner wisdom and create lives that feel regenerative, not depleting.
Through a blend of developmental coaching, somatic trauma therapy and essence work, I help people reconnect to their deepest truth. This isn’t just mindset work—it’s about healing the body, the nervous system, and the soul. By releasing trauma and old conditioning, we create space for your authentic self to emerge—leading to more empowered, aligned leadership that can ripple out into everything you do.

I’m Julia, and I know what it feels like to build a life that looks successful on the outside—while feeling completely disconnected on the inside.
For years, I led global teams, hit every career milestone, and played the part of a high-achieving leader. But beneath it all, I was exhausted, running on autopilot, and wondering if this was really it. Then came the wake-up call—a friend’s words that shook me to my core: “If you keep going like this, you won’t be living at all.” That moment changed everything. I stepped off the treadmill and into a journey of rediscovery.
In 2015, I founded Soulworx to help others bring more purpose and humanity into their work. But over time, my mission deepened: to guide midlifers—leaders, creators, and change-makers—through the big transitions of life with clarity, courage, and heart. Using a mix of coaching, systems therapy, breathwork, meditation, energy healing, and movement, I help people break free from outdated narratives, reconnect with their deeper wisdom, and create a life that feels truly theirs.
Because midlife isn’t an ending. It’s the beginning of something extraordinary.
