Our core team offers value through professional education, business advice, and workshops.
BALANCE
We nurture the body and mind through healthy nutrition, meditation, and physical wellbeing.
INSPIRATION
Our retreats are always held in a beautiful setting, to activate creativity, balance and to enable integration.
Mayfly Maven Retreats provide entrepreneurs, business leaders and professionals with a holistic reset through 1-2-1 coaching, self-reflection tools and goal-setting sessions within meaningful masterclasses.
During one of our retreats, you will experience a beautiful and truly immersive experience, with activities like meditation, yoga or Qigong and free time in luxurious accommodation, topped off with a nutritionist-curated menu, all so you can improve your health and vitality throughout the retreat.
​
This foundation will enable you to work with the team to uncover the impact of current elements in your life and identify how you can reset and plan to drive forward strategic goals for your future.
​​
We achieve all this by learning, working, and collaborating in a nurturing, safe environment that produces transformational results.
​
Holistic Approach
We explore and deliver all the tools you need, from nutrition and meditation to mental health and business strategy to ensure your future success.
Continuous Support
We do not believe in a "one and done" approach, we support you along your journey to ensure you complement learnings for sustainable growth.
Stunning Locations
From Toulouse to Marrakech, we craft journeys that activate ideas and inspire you, so that the experience stays with you for the rest of your life.
ACTIVATE YOUR JOURNEY FOR THE FUTURE
Mayfly Maven Retreats are organised and led by founders Raj Hayer and Simone Smith, who have a combined experience of over 50 years within business coaching and strategy, and psychological and transpersonal exploration.
Together, they merge business masterminds with a healthy mindset.
Raj and Simone are supported by a team of mavens who offer insight and knowledge into nutrition and physical exercises to support your overall wellbeing during the retreat.

Women's Leadership & Empowerment Retreat
Amazing retreat conducted in a holistic way, combining business with personal.
- Laura Keicher,
Moderator & host -
For me, this is an essential retreat: making time to take stock - including personal as well as business topics in a condensed but nonetheless holistic way. You will gain so many valuable insights and meet super interesting people. Very impactful!
- Anette Maier, Head of Tax Structuring @ Allianz Capital Partners -
Loved the location and people. Perfect opportunity to reflect and consider the next steps, both professionally and in my private life.
- Tankred Hase, Lead Application Engineer @ Lightning Labs -
The retreat in Ibiza was so deeply nourishing. The food, qigong, meditations workshops, and all the one to one sessions. The team went above and beyond. What I have taken back home with me is a new found enthusiasm for what I want to move forward in my life and work. Raj, Simone and Michelle were so knowledgeable and held the space for each of us with so much care and integrity. I gained so many insights and tools that I cannot wait to apply
to my life. So a super big thank you ladies and I look forward to more.

This inaugural MayFly mastermind retreat will remain in my memory as an unforgettable experience with like-minded and very inspiring people. A safe place for a group to reconcile individually, find inspiration in trustful conversations and conduct mastermind sessions guided by an excellent professional in this field.
- Maria Jose Perea Marquez, Co-founder @ LD7 GmbH-
Mayfly Maven was a truly soul searching experience. From the meditation and nutrition to workshops focussing on being the best version of ourselves. I came away energised and excited to start implementing some of the things I had learnt. The retreat was in a beautiful location where I got to be inspired by the team who made our stay so comfortable and fun, as well as meeting and making some amazing new friends.
Thank you Mayfly Maven.
