The Queen's Royal Retreat
Queen of the Castle
Queens do come true, and this fairytale retreat is the dreamiest place to step into your personal power and call on your inner queen.
Do you deeply desire time to know yourself, to get reacquainted with your own desires, to explore and recharge?
Are you looking for clarification around how to live with elegance and grace, to curate a life of quality and excellence?
Live Outrageously is excited to invite you to the first Royal Retreat, featuring luxurious VIP exploration and rejuvenation in France, including 5-star treatment at our home base — an extravagant castle in Chantilly Forest, where the aristocracy of France would come to “vacation”.
You’ll be joined by hostess Lady Grey and a small group of women dedicated to exploring the Queen archetype and living the life you desire. This exclusive 6-day retreat will help you embody your leadership and get comfortable with what it means to be the Queen of your own life.
Highlights include a private tour of Paris, grand meals, VIP entry to the Royal Serenade in the Hall of Mirrors (where Versailles comes to life with music and dance), your own a photo shoot in the Garden of the Queens, a pampering massage in the castle’s own Tiara spa, and so much more, befitting of the Queen you are!

Our Beautiful Hotel
Set in the picturesque Chantilly Forest, just half an hour away from Paris, the Tiara Château Hotel Mont Royal Chantilly is more fairytale palace than tourist resort.
This 18th century Château used to be a hunting lodge and has maintained its historical charm despite being renovated in 2008, thanks in part to its Louis XV and Louis XVI style furnishings. Whether relaxing in Le Stradivarius, a smokehouse-turned bar boasting a collection of old books, a large fireplace, and lavish furnishings, or dining at L´Opéra, an old ballroom converted into a sophisticated restaurant, Château Hotel Mont Royal gives you a feel of what it would’ve been like to be French royalty 250 years ago.

See What Past Retreat Participants are Saying
These retreats create a sacred, dedicated space and time to focus on the topic/theme which is incredibly precious. Also the sisterhood created and experience is absolutely amazing.
Live Outrageously retreats are a must for women looking to explore the depths of who they are. Not only are they jam-packed with VIP treatment, but the atmosphere created is safe and beautifully fit to expand your mind and allow you to “be” at the same time. I am looking forward to so many more.
If you are thinking about coming on this trip, I want to tell you right now to just do it. Do it, do it, do it. It may be a stretch, you may think, ‘I don’t know if this is for me.’ I promise you that this will be a life-changing time for you. All I can say is take a chance. Be courageous and just go. It’ll be so worth it.

We accept all credit cards and ACH withdrawals. Once I receive your deposit, I will personally call you and help you design a payment plan. You’ll have until June 1, 2023 to pay in full, but you can pay off your balance at any time or make installment payments on a regular basis.
COVID related: In the case of a COVID cancellation or shut down of international travel, the retreat will be rescheduled and all deposits and payments may be applied to that retreat, a future retreat, or may be refunded.
Retreat fees must be paid in full 60 days before the retreat begins or you forfeit your space. All fees are non-refundable (except in case of COVID related reschedule as outlined above). After that date, you will forfeit your deposit but can apply your balance to another retreat or coaching program. We highly recommend you purchase trip insurance when you book your air travel.
Registration guarantees your spot is saved on the Royal Retreat. Once you confirm your exclusive registration, you are taking one of a very limited number of spaces and as such there are no cash refunds in the event that you must cancel.
However, should you need to cancel your space on this retreat, we will happily give you a transferable credit for our next retreat or for a one-on-one empowerment coaching program.
Not at all! Most Parisians speak English, and a little French goes a long way in terms of good will. I’ll set you up with a basic guide to some French expressions beforehand, and rest assured that our hotel staff all speak English!
We recommend you fly into Charles de Gaulle (26 minutes away). As a reminder, airport transfers are not included and options include calling an Uber (yes, really!) or taking a taxi. We can also provide you with reservation information to reserve a private car. I do not recommend depending on the train, as sometimes the line is closed and luggage is hard to manage.
We’ll talk about this in detail during our group calls, and I’ll be sending you a thorough packing list. You can find Paris’s weather here. Please note that we will be dining and going to shows where there is a dress code, so that means no flip-flops!!!
You can share a gorgeous room with one other incredible retreat sister, who we hope will become a life-long friend. Or, if you prefer to room privately, simply pay the supplement for your own room. Another option is to take advantage of the special $150 off referral offer and invite a girlfriend to travel with you so you can room together!
There is premium Wi-Fi available in the hotel, however, you are encouraged to tuck your electronic devices away until it’s time for photos of amazing food or landmarks!
By attending this retreat, you are taking full responsibility for your mental, physical and emotional well-being as an adult. I am not a doctors or medical practitioner.
Please clear this trip and your travel to France with your own healthcare team. Be sure to pack whatever medications or vitamins you need for your health. You may also ALWAYS choose to opt out of any physically demanding activities at your own discretion. There are many events that require walking, and unfortunately, not all buildings in Paris are accessible because of their age. Feel free to contact me with any questions you have at 814-574-8403.
If you have special food concerns, please let us know on your registration form and we’ll do our best to make sure that your food is right for you. Please also take the added responsibility of confirming during meals that ingredients that you are allergic or sensitive to have not been used. Human error does occur, so please be aware for your own well-being.
Not a problem! All the restaurants we are visiting have alternatives that are non-alcoholic. For the wine and cheese tasting event, there is an emphasis on cheese for this very reason!
YOUR ROYAL PRESENCE IS REQUESTED! Join us, won’t you?
Space is limited to eight women. We encourage you to put your deposit down as soon as possible so you don’t miss out on this incredible trip!
