With Simone G in New Smyrna Beach — or Wherever YOU Thrive!
Escape your routine, embrace your own rhythm, and rediscover what balance means for you. Whether you desire a private retreat by the sea, want to transform your home or another special space into your personal sanctuary, or gather a magical mini-group for shared experiences, I’m here to guide your journey—virtually, in-person, or both!
Experience Destination YOU!
Destination YOU! is a work-away vacation built around YOUR healing, business and growth. Imagine taking a half-day, a day or an entire week and focusing on your wellness, learning mindset growth skills, and strategizing on how YOU can create a life that supports your work and your healing. This is what Destination YOU! is all about!
Imagine sinking your toes into warm, soft sand, and breathing in the healing salty ocean air of beautiful New Smyrna Beach. Whether you come solo to recharge, join with a kindred friend, or bring together your inspired team, this is your opportunity to step outside the everyday and…
put YOU first.
New Smyrna Beach is pure magic—a laidback coastal town celebrated for its natural beauty, vibrant local culture, and restful energy. But you don’t have to come to the beach to create your own oasis! I’ll help you plan your perfect getaway:
- at home (hello, at-home spa and strategy day!),
- in a cozy cabin,
- luxury hotel suite—wherever you’ll feel most supported.
Your Peaceful, Inspiring Retreat, Your Way

Destination YOU! packages can be virtual or in-person. They can stand alone or can be incorporated as an add-on to a private coaching package. Each package is as unique as you!
Virtual Retreats — Refresh, Renew, Rebalance (From Anywhere!)
Dreaming of a sanctuary—just for you? Whether it’s a half-day, full-day, or weekend tailored for solitude, restoration, and creative breakthrough, you choose your perfect setting—be it a cozy nook at home, a cottage in the woods, or any inspiring space.
- I’ll help you design and plan your retreat experience, coordinate key sessions, and offer virtual coaching to support your vision along the way.
- We’ll meet virtually for creative, soul-nourishing sessions—guided self-awareness, creative projects, mindset refresh, business and lifestyle planning, and deep self-compassion work.
- You spend dedicated time solo—journaling, walking in nature, enjoying your surroundings, gaining clarity, and exploring your inner world.
- I provide a BalanceUP® Retreat Guide and collaborate with you on an itinerary that includes moments for town adventures (massage, yoga class, art galleries) and restorative breaks.

I fell in love with New Smyrna Beach over thirty years ago. Now, having lived in New Smyrna Beach for over nine years, my love has only grown.
New Smyrna Beach, a barrier island just over one hour from Orlando, is known for being a charming beach town with 17 miles of beautiful white sandy shoreline (coastline). With a laidback and friendly setting, it is the perfect location to relax and rejuvenate.
