When the unexpected happens

from The EMMA LOVELL Show · host Emma Lovell

I always say expect the unexpected… and then the unexpected happened. We had to change! In this episode, I share how, after civil unrest broke out in Nepal, I had to move our retreat …. not just to a new venue … but to a whole new country! I talk about what was happening on the ground, my deep ties to Nepal, and the disappointment of shifting a retreat I’ve been dreaming about for years. I also take you behind the scenes of how we made this change — quickly, honestly, and with care for both my clients and my partners. You’ll hear: • Why “expect the unexpected” has always been my mantra for travel and retreats • The reality and emotions of moving Nepal, and the responsibility I felt to make the right decision • How strong travel partnerships meant we could pivot in just 6 days • A look at our new India retreat itinerary: Delhi, Amritsar, Dharamsala, and of course, the Taj Mahal • Why intention matters more than location when you’re hosting retreats • The importance of planning for the “what ifs” in both business and life It’s about being real with what happens when plans change, and how we can still create powerful, memorable experiences, even when the unexpected shows up.
