Absolutely loved this weekend shared with women who get it as they are also cancer warriors! I would thoroughly recommend this if you are unsure about moving forward and how to navigate life after breast cancer. Lesley and her team of amazing women will care for you and nuture you completely. Well worth it.

The retreat was a fantastic experience. The accommodation was very luxurious, and we were very spoilt by our hosts and the volunteers. I was blown away by the generosity of everyone involved, including the numerous small businesses that provided free goodies and services (the catering, yoga and massage were amazing). Learning from and sharing with other women who had been through breast cancer was so beneficial and helpful, I feel like I have made friends who "get" me. Thanks so much to Leslie and the team at The Joy Connection - I can't wait for the next adventure!

It was exactly what I needed, time to relax , unwind and take time for me. We were shown love, compassion, empathy and understanding. Lesley and the team provided a safe space and were there to listen and spend time with us when we needed and also provided opportunities to sit in our own space and just enjoy our beautiful surrounds and spectacular views of Kiama. This trip has allowed me to refresh and heal, form new friendships and allow me to return to my family feeling relaxed and present. Thank you to The Joy Connection for providing me with just what I needed.

I had a wonderful weekend, full of joy and laughter and lovely people. Food and accommodation was excellent too. I would recommend this retreat for everyone!

I can’t recommend this weekend enough. The team were fantastic, the sessions were so helpful, the food was amazing, and the activities were great fun. If you need time to reconnect with yourself, and spend time with people who understand you, this is it!
