Over the past couple of years, as well as writing, during her time living in Morocco, Jane has run a number of retreats with women visiting her from all over the world to experience the joy of writing and learning to live an authentic life.

Below is a selection of feedback and photographs from attendees at some of these events.


I feel as though I’ve been handed back my confidence as a writer and a woman, whilst having been given a supportive push forward in life. This is all down to Jane and her extraordinary ability to lead by example, create a nurturing environment, gather wonderful women, and give personalised advice that is sure to stick.

Seeing Marrakech through Jane’s eyes, from visiting shops and galleries, to writing and learning together in a pillow clad riad courtyard, and sharing drinks and laughter on a rooftop terrace, this experience has been completely enchanting. When I leave, I will be taking with me not only the magic of Marrakesh, but an inspiring group of women friends, a newfound courage to tell my story, permission to be vulnerable, and an eagerness to begin.”

The Kitaba experience leaves an imprint hat lingers long after the retreat ends. It was a beautiful reset, a spark of rewilding, and a reminder of how powerful it is when women come together to create.

I arrived unsure of myself, not fully seeing myself as a writer, and left with renewed confidence and a rediscovered passion for storytelling. The space, the prompts, and the openness shared made room for real transformation.
