Gatherings at La Mouy
La Mouy is not only a place to stay, but also a place to gather - to step away from the pace of everyday life, come back to yourself, and reconnect with what matters most.
Thoughtfully hosted and intentionally small in scale, gatherings at La Mouy bring together a handful of like-minded guests for meaningful conversation, beautiful shared meals, laughter, rest, and the kind of unhurried time that so often goes missing from everyday life.
What makes La Mouy different is not only what is offered, but how it is offered. There is no pressure to perform, no need to keep up, and no rush to move on when something meaningful is unfolding. Instead, each gathering is shaped with room to rest, reflect, join in, step back, talk, be quiet, and follow what feels nourishing in the moment.
At La Mouy, the setting is part of the magic. Light-filled rooms, shared meals, thoughtful details, quiet corners, and the calm beauty of the surrounding landscape create an atmosphere that both restores and energises. In a group of just four guests, there is space to be seen, to breathe, and to connect in a way that feels natural, genuine, and full of warmth. We love for our guests to leave with lighter hearts, renewed energy, and memories that stay with them long after they return home.
Small-scale hosted experiences shaped by beauty, reflection, and warm hospitality.

Lead from Within
Lead from Within unfolds over four days and three nights at La Mouy, in a rhythm that is calm, thoughtful, and lightly held. Gathering moments are woven together with beautiful meals, meaningful connection, and generous time to rest, reflect, and simply be.
Nothing is rushed, and nothing is forced. Some gathering moments are gently guided, while others are spacious and open. The intention is not to fill every hour, but to create the conditions for something quieter and more meaningful to emerge.
This gathering takes place twice in October:
12-15 October
19-22 October
Why "Lead from Within"?
Because leadership is not only about what happens professionally. It is also present in the way we care, choose, respond, and show up in the lives we are living - at work, at home, and in our relationships.
This gathering is an invitation to step away from the noise and come back to yourself. To listen again for that quieter inner voice beneath the pressure, the pace, and the demands of everyday life. From that place, a more grounded, intentional way of living and leading can begin - one that feels more true to who you are.
Programme
Day 1 - Arrive and exhale
You arrive in the afternoon and are welcomed into the calm rhythm of La Mouy. There is time to settle in, take in the surroundings, and begin to leave everyday demands behind.
The gathering opens with a warm welcome aperitif followed by dinner together. Gentle sharing around the table helps create connection from the start and sets the tone for the days ahead.
Day 2 - Reconnect
The first full day is an invitation to slow down and listen inwards.
A guided Morning Conversation offers space to reflect on what you are carrying and what may be asking for attention, rest, or renewal. The afternoon offers generous free time to swim, walk, journal, read, rest, or simply be in the moment.
Later in the day, the Curated Listening Journey creates space for reflection through music, stillness, and presence. The evening continues with a beautifully shared dinner and warm, unhurried time together.
Day 3 - Reimagine
The second full day turns gently towards what wants to emerge.
A reflective gathering moment, Soundtrack of Your Life, invites you to reconnect with identity, memory, energy, and future direction. The rhythm of the day leaves generous time for rest and personal space.
In the late afternoon, a private tasting of local wines, cheeses, and charcuterie becomes a warm and memorable setting for Wine, Reflection & Reinvention. Later, A Quiet Writing Invitation offers a meaningful way to gather insight as the day draws to a close.
Day 4 - Return
On the final morning, you come together with the group for What You Want to Carry Forward - a closing reflection and gentle return to the outside world, with a clearer sense of what you want to bring into the next season of your life.
Your gathering hosts
Meet Helena
Helena Gunenc is the creator of Gatherings at La Mouy. With a background in medicine, entrepreneurship, and international leadership, she hosts intimate gatherings for women who long for more space, perspective, and connection in the midst of full and demanding lives.
After years spent caring for people in different ways - as a physician, clinic owner, leader, and through the many roles and responsibilities life asks us to hold - Helena chose to create a place where women who carry a great deal could finally put some of it down. Her decision to step away from a high-pressure corporate career and live a more grounded life in the countryside has given her a deep understanding of what it means to long for change, and to choose it with courage.
At La Mouy, she brings together warm hosting, beautiful surroundings, and carefully held gathering moments that invite reflection, lightness, honesty, and rest. She believes in beautiful tables, unhurried conversation, thoughtful questions, and the small, caring touches that remind us we matter.
Meet Noelle
Noelle Lauren Contey is a creative guide and coach who believes that meaningful change begins when we reconnect with ourselves through creativity, reflection, and shared experience.
With a background in designing experiences for global brands, communities, and senior leaders, including work with L'Oréal, Coach, and LG, Noelle brings together storytelling, intuition, and human connection to create thoughtful moments that open space for reflection and possibility.
Her work is rooted in movement, sound, and guided reflection, blending immersive listening experiences, intentional practices, and meaningful exchange to help people reconnect with what makes them feel most alive. Warm, curious, and deeply present, she invites others to explore new perspectives and move forward with greater confidence, clarity, and joy.
