Being booked out isn’t just about demand — it’s about becoming the business owner who has the energy, systems, and skillset to sustain it.
Booked & Becoming
A 3-day business and wellness retreat for creative women who are ready to stop coasting, start leading — and finally build the brand, business, and life they know they’re meant for.
This isn’t about tweaking your bio or editing a few reels.
This is about breaking through.
🔥 Breaking up with burnout
🚪 Breaking out of the plateau you’ve been stuck in
⚡️ Breaking through the ceiling of your current skillset, strategy, and mindset
Whether you're an Airbnb host trying to grow a profitable brand — or a photographer ready to step into the interiors and Airbnb niche with clarity and confidence — this weekend is your turning point.
You’ve got the vision.
You’ve got the passion.
Now it’s time to build the business that matches.
This isn’t a wellness retreat with a side of worksheets.
And it’s not a business seminar with burnout on the side.
This is your moment to reset, realign, and rise.
This is your time to become who you need to be in order to build a truly booked-out business.

Hi, I’m Laura — your photographer, strategist, and former travel agent who knows what it really takes to sell a space.
I’ve spent over a decade in the world of sales, socials, and visual storytelling — and now, I’ve built a business devoted to helping women like you do the same.
📍 I started as a travel agent, learning firsthand what makes a property sell (and what gets you ghosted!). I know buyer psychology, the key to conversion, and how to turn a beautiful stay into a booked-out calendar.
📸 I became a professional photographer, capturing interiors, experiences, and Airbnb listings in ways that make people feel something — and want to click “book now.”
💡 And I’ve spent years consulting on business and marketing strategy for boutique hosts, creatives, and property owners — bringing the full picture together: the brand, the visuals, the story, the systems.
Now I combine all of it — sales, photography, content strategy, and business mentoring — into one offer ecosystem that helps Airbnb hosts and photographers grow sustainably and soulfully.
This retreat is the culmination of everything I’ve lived, learned, and led clients through. I’ve helped clients go from overlooked to fully booked, from burnt out to backed by strategy, and from self-doubt to self-led.
I don’t believe in generic formulas. I believe in powerful businesses built by powerful women — and that starts with becoming the version of you who can actually hold it.
Here’s what past clients have said:
“I left with more clarity in one weekend than I’d had in a year.”
“Laura doesn’t just teach — she gets in the trenches with you and helps you build a business that feels like yours.”
“I walked away with strategy, content, confidence, and a waitlist.”

Booked & Becoming
- A marketing & business retreat for creative women who are ready to stop winging it — and start building a brand that books.
This isn’t just time out. It’s time well spent.
Over three days, we’ll map your marketing, refine your messaging, sharpen your strategy, and help you build a brand that’s not just beautiful — but booked solid.
Because burnout doesn’t fix itself. And clarity doesn’t come from grinding harder.
With expert-led workshops, a like-minded crew, and space to think clearly for the first time in months — this is where your next level begins.

Is This For You?
Booked & Becoming is for the woman who’s done with winging it.
You’ve built something — but you’re spinning wheels trying to grow it.
You’ve got ideas — but no clear plan.
You’re marketing on social media — but mostly with crossed fingers and Canva templates.
You know what you want — but not how to actually make it happen.
This retreat is where strategy meets structure.
You’ll walk away with:
A mapped-out content and campaign calendar
A clear marketing strategy for your next quarter
A refined social media + brand voice plan
Confidence in your pricing, positioning, and presence
Real insight into what’s been holding you back — and how to move forward, sustainably
Oh — and you’ll also sleep through the night, eat warm meals, soak in a hot tub, and remember what it feels like to be inspired again.
