Peace in Action: Transform Overwhelm into Focus, Clarity, and High Performance

With Amrita Ahuja

May 21 - 25, 2025

Do you need to get a lot done but don’t want all the stress? Read on.

We have a problem – our hustle-and-grind culture pushes professionals with demanding schedules and goals to get things done but leaves them feeling stressed, overwhelmed, and burnt out. Groundwork shows you another way. In this transformative retreat, you’ll learn proven systems and practical behaviours to reduce stress, avoid burnout, and unlock your full potential.

Join us for a transformative 4-night retreat, where you’ll discover what hundreds of other high performers like you already have—that high performance and personal peace can, and do, work together using Groundwork

Don’t Go It Alone – Learn with Others Like You

As a professional seeking to achieve high performance, you may experience some of these problems:

  • You’re overwhelmed by your to-do list, email inbox, and calendar.
  • Prioritizing is extremely challenging because it all feels urgent.
  • You’re not getting to important projects.
  • You feel stuck in a cycle of stress, overwhelm, and worry.

In the high-pressure world of leadership, where decisions can make or break entire companies, stress isn’t just a side effect—it’s a constant.

  • 75% of startup founders are quietly dealing with mental health issues, with 30% experiencing depression and 29% experiencing ADHD-like symptoms.
  • 82% of CEOs show signs of burnout.
  • 80% of senior leaders and executives feel they are “always on,” leading to decreased focus and mental exhaustion.

The good news is you’re not alone and there is a proven way to change this.

You Will Learn to

  • Understand your stress response and how it impacts your productivity
  • Access stillness and clarity in moments of overwhelm
  • Reduce stress and improve focus with mindfulness-based practices
  • Apply a simple way to manage your inbox, to-do list, and calendar.
  • Implement a system for goal prioritization task management.
  • Regain your work-life balance, succeed in your job, & enjoy your life.

Through a blend of guided workshops, quiet reflection, and interactive sessions, you’ll leave equipped with a practical toolkit for both inner and outer transformation.

Who This Retreat Is For

  • Anyone who feels stretched between peace and performance
  • Professionals, creatives, executives, entrepreneurs or anyone balancing demanding schedules
  • Those experiencing burnout or seeking more purpose in their work
  • Individuals ready to cultivate inner calm while optimizing their external results

You don’t have to be an executive or entrepreneur to benefit—if you’re navigating the complexities of modern life and want to find harmony between achievement and well-being, this retreat is for you.
