It’s time to be yourself.

It’s time to explore...

  • “The Introspective Writing Retreat was life-changing. Johnny and Heidi have curated an intelligent, thoughtful, creative and fun! experience that is truly not to be missed. Bit by bit they guide you to open your heart and mind not just to Paris, but to your own soul; their writing prompts coupled with their clever locations ensure you will forever be connected to Paris in a deep, spiritual way. I cannot wait to return with both of them.”

  • “What an amazing trip and wonderful experience. Paris Inward is a great way to align the beauty inside yourself with the beauty of Paris. For an inexperienced traveler like myself, Johnny and Heidi have created a trip that is balanced with structure and free time. Another perk is the little details and activities that can only be found with Johnny and Heidi.”

  • “I would highly recommend the Paris Inward retreat to anyone! As a first timer to Paris, I didn’t have a whole lot of prior knowledge about the city, but under Heidi and Johnny’s guidance I trusted I was in good hands. Their passion for France shows in the thoughtfully curated workshops and hidden gem locations beyond the typical tourist attractions. I would have been completely lost trying to navigate the city without them. Paris Inward was the most amazing and authentic way for me to travel abroad for the first time and left me with not only a deeper connection to the Parisian way of life but myself.”

  • “Johnny and Heidi were the cherry on the top of this fun and enlightening experience, which they specifically tailored to my Latin-teacher friend’s desires. Their thought-provoking activities—ask about the color exercise, which to this day, months later, makes me stop and think and prompts me to view my surroundings with new eyes; and their incredibly sustained energy, good humor, inventiveness and caring never seemed to wane!  Heidi and Johnny had carefully chosen accommodations and local transportation so as to create an experience that continues to reverberate and constantly remind me how important it is for my psyche to dive into new, mind-bending experiences. The tour gave me more than I ever could have imagined it would!”

  • "Whether you’re a seasoned traveler, writer, or a curious Francophile traveling for the first time, Paris Inward provides a truly thoughtful and intimate curated experience from start to finish. Heidi and Johnny have left no detail of their workshops to chance. From the moment you arrive, you will feel embraced by a warm and sophisticated energy which is there to support you through the each step of the writing and self-exploration process. All of this with a breathtaking backdrop that is effortlessly woven into each day’s experiences. By partnering with local artists and vendors, Paris Inward gives you a true local experience with the perfect balance of luxury, personal time, and an edgy flair that makes these workshops a truly unique experience. My only complaint is that my week in Paris ended too soon. However, Heidi and Johnny provided so many resources and thoughtful prompts that my Parisian self-reflection continued long after I returned home. Do yourself a favor and treat yourself to these one-of-a-kind curated experiences. Your mind, body, and soul will thank you many times over. "
