Bienvenue!

Wishing you a very warm welcome to my newsletter.

Once a month – I do my best, but sometimes life (and my retreats!) happen, and it ends up being more like once every two months – I’ll be dropping a dose of insight, a touch of humour, and practical wisdom straight into your inbox.

My aim with this newsletter is to provide a supportive space where you can find actionable strategies to navigate all those moments that make life… well, interesting. Too interesting, sometimes.

Who am I? You can read an essay about my exploits by CLICKING HERE, but in short, I’m a retired medical doctor who now hosts Camino de Santiago retreats on a little farm in the southwest of France, assisted by a small herd of Friesian and Falabella horses, and also virtually mentors people through various life changes, challenges and crises. Most of these I have been through myself, sometimes more than once.

As a special welcome gift, CLICK HERE to access my very “serious scientific” quiz to help you figure out how urgent your need for a change of scenery is.

That’s about it. If you need help making an important decision right now, like deciding whether you want to go on a retreat, which retreat to go on and whether you’ll benefit from it, have a look at my Critical Decision-Making Protocol.

It’ll be especially useful if you have been:

  • -Lying awake at night, replaying options in your mind
  • -Feeling paralysed when facing important choices
  • -Second-guessing decisions you’ve already made
  • -Struggling to separate emotions from practical considerations
  • -Feeling pressured to make choices before you’re ready

This is what it’s all about:

This step-by-step system combines analytical clarity with emotional intelligence to help you make decisions you won’t regret.

What makes this protocol different?

  • It is specifically designed for high-stakes decisions
  • It integrates your emotions rather than allowing you to ignore them
  • It aligns your choices with your deepest values
  • It provides clear steps when you feel at your most foggy
  • It helps you distinguish between reversible and consequential choices
  • It includes practical tools for immediate implementation

Here’s what others are saying:

“Recently, even small decisions felt overwhelming—let alone something like going away on a retreat. I kept thinking, Is this selfish? Will this be a waste of money? The protocol walked me through my doubts without dismissing them. It didn’t push me toward “yes”—it helped me understand why I was hesitating.” – Sophie G.

“I’d been hovering over the “book now” button for weeks, doing what I do best—overanalysing. Spreadsheets, pros/cons lists, imagined worst-case scenarios… you name it. This protocol cut straight through that noise. What surprised me most was how it separated what I thought I should do from what I actually needed. I did book the retreat. And for the first time in years, I made a decision that felt aligned with what I really needed.” – Lissa A.

Ready to make decisions you’ll thank yourself for later?
