Victoria’s personal message about the retreat:
“I can’t wait to see you all in Greece, you all know my love for bootcamps but have always wanted to do a retreat so that we can spend more one on one time and I can get to know all of you better so that I can build a stronger community. We have planned an amazing 6 days for you all and I simply can’t wait. See you soon.”
