Thrive Together:
A Swedish Wilderness & Wellbeing Experience.
In August 2026, join Brett & Mari Robinson for Thrive Together - a deeply immersive retreat experience set in the pristine northern wilderness of Sweden, Mari’s birthplace & family home.
This exclusive retreat is designed for growth-minded, adventure-seeking couples intent on deepening their connection with each other and themselves, in a new & enriching nature-based environment.
“The values work was incredible. Not just naming them, but understanding what underpins them. Seeing how mindset shifts your whole physiology was mind-blowing. It made us both realise how much potential we still have to grow, together.”
WELCOMEÂ
TO NAVARDALEN
Navardalen in Älvdalen, Dalarna, is a secluded lakeside retreat centre in the Swedish wilderness.
Across four days and three nights, couples step out of everyday life and into a shared adventure, exploring a new landscape, slowing down, and experiencing something genuinely different together.
Through nature immersion, simple rituals and meaningful shared moments, couples reconnect not just through conversation, but through doing - moving, exploring, and creating memories side by side.
The experience leaves partnerships feeling lighter, more energised and deeply connected, anchored in shared presence, perspective and joy.
Core elements of this retreat include:
Viking wisdom survival skills and traditional native experiences with the Swedish locals.Â
Breath work and holistic wellbeing workshops, and shared values, vision & purpose workshops.
Cold water swims and saunas, guided hikes and nature immersion in the troll forest.
Locally foraged and organic wild food prepared by a private chef.
Evening fireside reflections and storytelling.
The locations

A feast for the senses
An elevated food experience featuring wild, local, and regenerative ingredients, thoughtfully curated to reflect your personal tastes and the rhythm of the Swedish seasons.
Each meal is prepared by a private chef, and artfully presented, blending traditional and innovative Swedish flavours to nourish both body and mind as a vital part of your transformation and renewed energy.
INSIDEÂ THIS RETREAT
Reconnection: To nature, to self, to each other.
Re-wilding: Peeling back the layers we accumulate over time, the titles, the roles, the expectations, the masks. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, leader or someone supporting from behind the scenes, life tends to wrap us in layers that disconnect us from our true nature. This retreat is an invitation to take off the suit, the armour, the identities, and returning to who we are at our core.Â
Thriving: As individuals and as a more deeply connected couple, leading to greater wellbeing & capacity in life and work.
Reignite shared purpose: realign your goals, values, and vision so you can move forward as a unified team, both personally and professionally.
Experience greater fulfilment and joy: rediscover balance and appreciation for your relationship and life as a whole. nderstand your own and your partner’s values, strengths, and emotional needs, and learn how to navigate pressure with empathy and clarity.

Our 2025 'Thrivers'Â
At the end of the full 3-month Australian program in 2025, we shared a beautiful 3-day retreat at SOMA in the Byron Bay hinterland, which included a pool-based breath training session, a cacao ceremony, some final workshops and of course, a banquet of food by the wonderful Life Harvest.
This retreat marked the end of the program, but the beginning of a new chapter of much more connection and fulfilment for the busy couples who attended.
