BUSYNESS DETOX
by the sea.
For women leaders, who want to make a difference, but need the courage to start
KAS – TURKEY
October, 2024
Over the past few years, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to work together with inspiring women executives and entrepreneurs, who either navigated significant career change during our collaboration, or had taken their businesses to the next level after working with me on how they want to lead.
Often, the common thread among these women was that they had brave ideas for creating something meaningful, initiating positive change but were stuck in roles that didn’t align with their values.
They were stuck because they were:
Overwhelmed, juggling too many tasks, in too many roles.
Felt a constant need to deliver results at all costs.
Paralyzed by perfectionism.
Lacked clarity about their values.
Wanted to meet even unrealistic expectations.
Wanted to avoid risks, even if it meant giving up on their dreams.
All these factors led to constant busyness and fatigue, leaving little room for self-care or personal growth. But it also affected the way they (didn’t) show-up for inspiring projects, where they needed to make brave decisions, because they were totally disconnected from their creativity and their courage.
In today’s fast-paced and demanding world, professional women and business owners often find themselves caught in a cycle of constant hustle and overwhelm.
If you’re experiencing any or all of these, it’s time to do things differently.
I invite you to a unique program around experiences by the sea, if you’re a high-achieving female professional or entrepreneur, so that you can find a way out of this constant cycle of busyness and learn to:
- Slow down.
- Reconnect with your courage.
- Get clear on your brave ideas for work that inspires you.
- Take action.
To experience doing “nothing” and stopping all work activities without interruptions is important for several reasons.
Because from this “nothing”, “something” can surface, and within this void you will be able to hear your innermost voice. It’s through “doing nothing” that the ability to create something new can resurface.
It also takes courage to stop, to “do nothing”, because we are conditioned to constantly do stuff, to have a plan, to be useful and to not be idle. Keep going, do more, that’s the mantra we live in.
I went through this myself when I was CEO of my own business. It took me a long time to learn to consciously stop this habit of busyness, in which most leaders also become trapped. I had a hard time learning to stop and do nothing, without feeling guilty or useless. When I finally did, it was one of the scariest things I’d ever experienced, but I now know that it was one of the best decisions I’d ever made.
I invite you to this exciting program in a beautiful environment, in a secluded small town in the south of Turkey, where people are kind, the sea is warm, food is delicious and where you can find silence or summer vibes, depending on what you need. I’ll be waiting here for all you brave women at the end of September. You can come alone or with a group; it’s possible to choose from different options.

BUSYNESS DETOX BY THE SEA
For women, who need to build calm and courage in busy work and business roles

Time left to register until the 31st of August, 2022.

I turned to Eva for coaching with signs of exhaustion and burnout. From the very first moment, it was as if she had known me for ages and we were able to establish a sincere relationship very easily. She is highly experienced and straightforward and held a very authentic mirror up to me. During the process, I liked how we found common ground and how we were able to move forward. The end result was that I was able to set boundaries and priorities, and came to see how valuable I was. With her support, I managed to revert back to who I really was, from a ventilating old woman to my "MiniCooper leather jacket” self. The biggest lesson was that I should have asked for help earlier.
I had the chance to work with Eva when I went through tough times and I faced new challenges in my carrier. Already during our first session she held a mirror to me and led to such conclusions which really energized and motivated me. She is open minded, inspiring, a great listener and questioner. Focusing on my strengths she helped me a lot to find my way in that difficult period – with success at the end. 😊 I can highly recommend her to anyone who feels stuck in his or her career or simply would like to develop, she helped me a lot.
THE PROGRAM
The program will not be about theories. Instead, through various activities you will experience everything that you might already know in your head, but till now were not able to put into practice.
I created the program around a specific concept, so that you can gain external and internal experiences.
External experiences
– As I promised, we will be gazing at the sea from different boats, balconies and beaches we will float on the surface and also under the surface for those who will try diving.
– Watch the sunset from the top of an ancient Roman theatre, to witness how the horizon first turns pink and then orange over the sea.
– A full-day boat trip to one of the most beautiful sites in the area, the Sunken City, where, if the sea is calm, the remains of an ancient Roman city can be seen below the surface. This tour takes us through crystal clear bays where we can swim, relax and just be.
– There will be time and opportunity to admire the sea from cozy bars and restaurants, and to discuss the day’s experiences.
– During the week, we will spend a lot of time in and around seawater, in lovely bays where you can see the bottom some 20 meters below you. It is important for you to feel secure in deep water and to love being in the sea.
– We will also head out with one of the diving boats, where I will encourage everyone to try scuba diving, but if not, then at least snorkeling. As my first instructor said at the time, and she did not lie, there is nothing more relaxing and wonderful than floating in 3D, in transparent blue waters, while listening to your own breathing. Both on the surface or underwater, a qualified and very patient diving instructor will be with us and I know that thanks to him, anything that seems scary at first, will be transformed into a wonderful experience.
– All these adventures will happen at a slowed down, relaxing and refreshing pace
Internal experiences
– You will learn about the Fertile Void, the space where we can experience nothingness, the space where we need to be after each of our activities, to be able to function well. There will be little theory and much more practice.
– On the surface of the water or underwater, but definitely with a diving mask, you will learn things that you never thought you could be capable of, about how you react to and what resources you can rely on in a new environment or when you face challenges.
– There will be group and individual conversations, during which we will process all the experiences, from gazing at the sea to diving, so that you can integrate all that you’ve learned into your daily life after returning home.
– During the week, there will be 10-12 hours of coaching in group and individually, to help you move forward with your chosen goals.
– Listening to each other’s stories in a safe space created by a circle of women, and realizing that you’re not alone, will also help your own process.

Location
The program is based in Kas, a remote town in the South of Turkey, where I have been returning regularly since 2004. There are two international airports, one that’s 2 hours away and one that’s 3.5 hours away by car. The journey is beautiful and long, but worth it.
The town offers only small hotels and guesthouses, is surrounded by 2000 m high mountains and crystal clear waters. You can choose from many great restaurants, bars and cosy cafés, where from the second day onwards everyone will call you by your name.
Our accommodation
Our accommodation will be at one of my favourite apartment hotels, close to the centre, with a lovely garden and very friendly hosts. The apartments have a comfortable living room and bedroom, equipped kitchen with a fridge, air conditioning, and a terrace with side or front sea view.
The bedrooms either come with a queen sized bed, or two twin beds. If 2 participants would like to have their own space, then a normal single bed can be set up in the spacious living room. The bathroom is large and is equipped with a shower.
A tasty Turkish breakfast is served in the hotel’s lovely garden.
Meals
Each day a generous and tasty Turkish breakfast is included in the price.
Other meals are not included, except for lunch on the days where we are on a cruise or diving boat. The town has a wide variety of restaurants, both lower and higher priced, offering very good cuisine.

YOUR HOST
Eva Tornallyay
I’m Eva Tornallyay, an economist of hospitality and tourism, business and leadership development coach, transformational team coach, business mentor, founder of Kalangu Coaching, passionate traveller and scuba diver.
I grew up in West Africa and also lived in Barcelona, London and Villach.
I spent 20+ years in international tourism, 15+ years as an entrepreneur, CEO and business owner, with experience in business, product and market development, international relations, strategic planning and successful business negotiations with 60 countries around the world. I was also a co-author in the UK published „Dial a Guru - Awaken Your True Potential” self-development book. During my personal burnout, I sold my company at the age of 45, and moved to Barcelona for a sabbatical. Here, after a few months of being in the Fertile Void, I decided to retrain as a coach.
My mission is to help people see new opportunities, even in challenging times and to make courageous, meaningful changes in the way they work or do business, along responsible and sustainable strategies.
All the programs I offer are based on hundreds of hours of training and personal experience. I’ll never try to market anything that I have not tried myself.
