Kópavogur, Iceland
"YOU vs YOU" Retreat | Konstantinos Kintzios & Spyros Andrianos | Iceland
The most important journey is the one back to yourself. (GREEK SPEAKING AUDIENCE ONLY)
Overview
This is an invitation to step away for a few days from the noise. To disconnect from: • The roles you carry • The responsibilities you shoulder • The expectations you try to meet • The demands that constantly compete for your attention And to spend time with the one person you usually leave at the bottom of your list. YOU. Most people spend their lives fighting battles with deadlines, circumstances, and the people around them. We work to become: • Better professionals • Better partners • Better parents • Better friends We keep moving. We keep producing. We keep performing. But somewhere along the way, we forget to ask: “Is the life I’m living actually mine?” Because the truth is simple. Your greatest opponent is rarely standing in front of you. It’s hiding inside: • The excuses you’ve repeated for years • The decisions you’ve been postponing • The fears that still shape your choices • The habits that keep you stuck • The gap between what you want and what you do That’s why this journey follows a clear path. • Face your reality with honesty • Identify the barriers within you • Let go of what no longer serves you • Make the decisions you’ve been avoiding • Create space for what truly matters next This is not a retreat designed to leave you inspired for a week. Success is leaving with: • Greater self-awareness • More clarity • More ownership • The courage to act Because real change doesn’t happen when you learn something new. It happens when you finally act on what you’ve known all along. And when this experience comes to an end, the most important meeting won’t be with the people around you. It will be with the person staring back at you in the mirror every morning. Are you ready?
Hosts
Konstantinos Kintzios
Business Mentor | Leadership Coach | Public Speaker
Konstantinos, now 44 years old, dreamed as a child of becoming either a racing driver or a professional basketball player for Panathinaikos. Instead, his passion for food led him down a different path, and by 2009 he weighed over 170 kilograms. Through determination and perseverance, he lost 90 kilograms, completely transforming his life and gaining a profound understanding of personal growth and resilience.
Inspired by John F. Kennedy's famous quote, "Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country," he dedicated eight years of his career (2017–2024) to ReGeneration, Greece's largest education and employment initiative for young graduates. As its leader, he helped nearly 5,000 young professionals launch their careers while supporting the delivery of over 1,000,000 hours of training in soft, technical, and digital skills.
Today, Konstantinos specializes in leadership development, talent management, organizational culture, and the evolving dynamics of Generation Z. Through mentoring, coaching, and speaking engagements, he helps leaders and organizations strengthen communication, empathy, people management, and team effectiveness while fostering healthier, high-trust workplace cultures.
Having collaborated with more than 300 organizations and delivered over 600 public talks, he has become a trusted voice for leaders seeking practical and lasting transformation. Since 2022, he has also been the co-creator of Greece's leading business podcast, "Tha Sas Eidopoiisoume" ("We Will Notify You"), which promotes healthier workplace cultures and bridges the gap between the five generations coexisting in today's workforce.
Spyros Andrianos
Speaker | Best Selling Author | Mentor
Spyros Andrianos did not begin his professional journey with the goal of becoming an entrepreneur, author, or public speaker. Like many people, he started by trying to find his place in the world—to understand who he was, what he could contribute, and how to build a meaningful life beyond titles and professional labels.
His professional path began in the corporate world, working as a manager at OTE, COSMOTE, and Deutsche Telekom, where he gained firsthand experience in leadership, responsibility, and decision-making in demanding environments.
Driven by a deeper question—what does a person truly need in order to live a fulfilled life?—he co-founded Men Of Style in 2014, Greece's first men's personal development company. What began as a bold vision evolved into an organization that has served more than 22,000 clients and reached millions through its work. Today, he is also the founder of BrandU and co-founder of NotifyShow Consulting, advising entrepreneurs, CEOs, and executives on growth, leadership, strategy, and personal branding.
As a keynote speaker, author, and podcast host, Spyros has delivered more than 250 talks, produced over 1,000 podcast episodes, and contributed extensively to the conversation around personal growth, leadership, and workplace culture.
At the heart of his work lies a simple belief: The greatest challenges in life are not external, they are internal.
Not how to achieve more, but how to remain connected to what truly matters while doing so. In this retreat, Spyros is not coming to teach another success strategy. He is coming to create a space for honest reflection, where titles, roles, and achievements can be set aside for a while, so we can reconnect with the person behind them all.
