Vacation 2024: Life Lessons That Color Our World Forever
 
*For less than most of us spend on gas
*Or a daily Starbucks fix
*Or a few months of car insurance or car payment
 
We may not realize just how much we need it. A break from the daily routine. However, chances are that we do. Most of our money gets sucked from our paycheck through a weekly visit to the gas pump, a daily visit for a designer latte, or in the mountain of bills that we all have to attend to each month. Is it time to siphon off an investment for a new outlook that can change the entire trajectory of our life?
 
I’ve done this a few times – when I was ready to start a family (Greece), when I was floundering on which career direction to take (Italy), and when I lost a close family member to suicide (Bodhgaya). Pushing pause on the routine and stepping into a culture that is a bit foreign to us can prompt us to: 1) develop new (often much better) habits, 2) to heal, and, 3) to emerge rejuvenated and inspired. With a blank canvas, our brain can draw new possibilities – especially if the creative oceans we are immersing ourselves in offer lessons it would be difficult to learn at home. Each of the essential trips that I took resulted in me getting closer and closer to my true self and my life purpose. I gained the experience and wisdom to think differently and the courage to do it, even if it wasn’t the norm. (Are you aware that most Americans, Canadians and Australians have a CO2 footprint that is 3X that of most Europeans?)
 
Right now, many of us are planning a summer getaway – a week somewhere for R&R and a little fun. We might be planning a cruise, thinking it’s affordable or even “sustainable” (eventhough cruise ships have the worst CO2 footprint of any transportation, outside of private jets).
 
I’m encouraging us all to think about investing in an experience that will color our world for the rest of our lives, and could easily result in annual savings of thousands of dollars in our budget when we return home. As I mentioned at the top of this blog, the cost of our exclusive, specially curated brain trust adventure in Cornwall, England is less than most of us spend in a few months on car insurance or car payments, or gasoline or a daily visit to Starbucks. (And yes, we’ll help you with a payment plan. Email [email protected] to learn more.)
 
I’m inviting you to an exclusive opportunity that only comes around once every two years or so – our Restormel Royal Manor House Retreat (2023, 2025 and potentially 2027). Imagine how living in a luxurious, 5-star, historic manor house for a week (ala a Downton Abbey country house) can positively impact our lives forever by helping us to think much bigger and understand better how to stop making the billionaire corporations rich, while keeping more of our wealth in our family.

Click to check out a reel of some of the scenes from our 2023 Restormel Royal Manor House Retreat.

The Restormel Manor House
Restormel Manor is approximately 500 years old, sits on the site of the ancient Holy Trinity Chapel and is steps from the castle built by the 1st Prince of Wales over 900 years ago – Restormel Castle.

Restormel Manor is surrounded by extensive woodland walks and located close to Cornwall’s beautiful south coast. The manor has been extensively refurbished and great care has been taken to retain the character of the house and its historic features. The interior is beautifully furnished to suit the style of the property, with a mixture of period and contemporary furniture.

Accommodation at Restormel Manor includes three wings, sitting rooms, a formal dining room, kitchens in each wing, lodging and extensive grounds. Restormel Manor also features an indoor heated swimming pool, steam room and sauna, children's play area, tennis court and games room.

From here, you are within easy reach by car of the Lanhydrock estate and the Eden Project in Bodmin. Just a short distance up the hill are the remains of Restormel Castle, which dates back to the 12th century and was once one of the most important buildings in Cornwall.

In 2023, we visited Restormel Royal Manor House in March. Spring is a wonderful time to be in this exclusive community, as we aren’t fighting the crowds. After the retreat, a few of us rented a car and visited Stonehenge the morning of the Spring Equinox (at 5 am), where they opened up the grounds for a religious celebration (i.e. no ropes). It was such an extraordinary experience! (Click to watch that.)

A life-changing vacation in a luxurious setting (for a very affordable price)

A New Lens for Viewing Life By Walking Through the Centuries of Leadership and Wealth

This is an exclusive opportunity available to only a select group of individuals who can form a strong brain trust for each other, who have already joined our volunteer team. Only six rooms remain available.
 
Live Royal for a Week. Change Your Life.
The manor house is owned by The Royal Family. Here, our group can jumpstart our FIRE* dream. We embrace a week of visioning, of ditching the car and gridlock traffic, of walking a lot more, of living even more sustainably, of forest bathing and ambling in meadows filled with lambs, of marveling at castles that were built in the 1100s, as well as the Eden Project biosphere that was built just 20 years ago. 
 
*Financial Independence Retire Early

What kind of insights can we tap into? What kind of epiphanies and new possibilities will present themselves when we slow down and allow ourselves to dream? What partnerships might emerge? Step back into Mother Nature and harmony for a glimpse of the world we might create. Together. Sleep in the beds of, and walk in the footsteps of, a family that has built and retained wealth for centuries.
 
Imagine an adventure in an inspiring, culture-rich location, with a brain trust of others​, who are​also committed to lifelong learning, prosperity, sustainability, living a rich life and adopting the strategies for financial freedom and sustained wealth​. If you’re more interested in exploring the seashore, tasting world-class dining and swimming in the heated pool by yourself, that’s available as well.
​ 
The Restormel Royal Manor House Retreat is an intimate, 5-star, life-changing opportunity for an affordable price.

​

​Bring your teen or college grad. Bring a friend. Bring your sacred beloved. Splurge on your own self-care spa trip. (There is a heated pool, sauna and steam room.) Join us. ​

When we change our story, we change our life. It's difficult to change our life story when we are doing the same thing every day, with only a week or two escape now and then. Take a risk, in an extraordinary, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to play in a setting that is simply not be available to most of us on our own.
 
Land Rates now through May 30, 2024: $1397.50/person (based upon double occupancy). (Yes, you read that right, a week in an exclusive, 5-star manor house, with thousands of dollars of prosperity training perks, for less than most of us spend annually on gasoline. And yes, we’ll help you with a payment plan. Email [email protected] to learn more.)

Comments from the March 2023 Inaugural Restormel Royal Manor House Brain Trust
​"Thank you for changing my life for the better (and with this retreat)." Wes


"The retreat had a huge impact on me because Natalie did an amazing job facilitating and modeling the lifestyle she teaches, and lining up activities that kept us engaged throughout, while also being flexible, allowing for us to have personal time, or to opt out of activities if we needed to. While I will never be a Royal, the experience sparked my imagination and motivation in ways I never expected to create my own “royal” lifestyle that’s fitting for me. For example, playing the Billionaire Game inside a Manor House owned and used by Royals, and experiencing this lifestyle, made it a whole new experience that expanded ideas and possibilities. One couldn’t help but to think differently. The Restormel Manor House itself is quaint, beautiful, impressive, and inspiring. The town of Lostwithiel and surrounding areas are spectacular. This experience was life-changing for me. It was the perfect blend of discussions, activities, and personal down time. I’m looking forward to future Retreats, as they will take on a whole new meaning for me with this new experience. And it was wonderful how we often found ourselves gathering with others in a kitchen, sitting room, or in the dining room, having forward-thinking conversations and sharing ideas." T

"Thank you for inviting us on this magical experience. We loved our time here and hope to come back sometime!" L&M


"I'm really grateful to have become part of Natalie's community as a young professional. Between the knowledge gained through retreats and the experiences from this immersive trip, I feel much more aligned with my visions and values than most of my peers. Meeting similarly-minded people at retreats has fueled my ability to dream deeply and commit myself to action. This trip in particular allowed me to take time for myself and my future plans in ways that I don't often prioritize in my day-to-day routines and obligations. Getting to be in different environments and consciously crafted spaces gave me essential perspectives that allowed me to expand my vision. I left the retreat feeling fired up, and ready to keep moving forward toward the life of my dreams!" M

"[This retreat] gave me an opportunity for my mind and brain to open up to dreaming again. I loved every minute. Natalie's approach to life is very interesting, fun, wealthy and wholistic. If that is what you like and want, then coming on this retreat, which comes with online seminars, is a great value. You will meet incredible people, think outside of the box, be inspired, see natural wonders as well as exclusive places - all while being mindful about your carbon footprint. You will learn a lot from other like-minded people who come from a different area of life. Because Natalie is unpretentious, she doesn't invite the energy of negativity or flamboyancy that some people associate with wealth. She honors life and every sentient being, as evidenced in her life's work and books. She focuses on the true value of wealth and wealth creation, which veers toward eco-sustainability, generational wealth and wealth sharing, and not short term gains. The retreat provides a 5-star experience with ample space and time to do as you wish. The people of the town were surprisingly welcoming and hospitable. Those are the little things that make it a 5-star experience without the fake pretense or entitlement that some might associate with money or wealth." E

"I want to find the right words to express what a wonderful experience the week I spent with Natalie Pace and an amazing group of like-minded individuals exploring infinite possibilities, Duchy of Cornwall, Lostwithiel, Royal Manor, proper English tea party, fairy god mother, lovely new friends met along the way, potential new partnership, laughter, nature and so much walking all over Cornwall and all the fabulous castles and places we visited and experienced, to name a few of the vast and wonderful adventures and experiences that we shared. I feel blessed and grateful.  My wish for the retreat was to dream again and dream more - consciously and while sleeping - I did - it’s amazing.  My mind, heart and soul opened up and I was present. It was a lovely group of individuals with one common thread - all of us huge fans of our financial and sustainability guru - Natalie Pace." E

"Thank you for making such an impact on my life and the lives of others! You are a blessing to the world. I'm so grateful to know you, and to be a part of this family. It was an experience of a lifetime - great camaraderie and the chance to put what we’ve learned into action (and learn more) - all in an amazingly beautiful place." S

"Thank you for letting me come on this amazing trip! I've had so much fun, and I also learned a lot! I hope I can come to the next one as well." R

"Thank you for a wonderful week. Feeling very grateful." C
