Let’s be real, being a modern woman can feel exhausting. You’re expected to work like you’re not a parent, parent like you don’t work, and even if you don’t have kids you’re still juggling so many roles, responsibilities, and expectations!

Today’s fast-paced world leaves very little space for self-love and healing, which is why we have to make space for it.

If only there were a place where we women could gather, bond, heal, rest, play, rejuvenate, be reborn into the next-best version of ourselves, and come home refreshed and ready to elevate our lives…

That’s where the Radical Self-Love Retreat comes to the rescue!

How the Radical Self-Love Retreat Was Born

In 2019, I realized that I shouldn’t limit myself to teaching self-love and self-care only online (via my remote coaching sessions and online program Radical Self-Love). It was time to take my medicine and start helping women in person.

It couldn’t just be anywhere though, it had to take place in the most healing, fun, and gorgeous environment, an environment of sisterhood and community… which is when the idea for my first Radical Self-Love Retreat was born!

Why not take everything I knew about self-love and teach women in person, in paradise?

Even though I had never hosted, or even attended a healing retreat before (and the woman who I had planned to co-host it with completely bailed on me last minute) I was determined to make it the most epic healing/yoga/self-love/women’s retreat ever.

I asked myself, “How can women not just learn how to love themselves, but practice and live it in real time each day of the retreat?”

To me, loving yourself means letting yourself rest.
It means taking time to play just for fun.
It means nourishing and resourcing yourself in as many ways as possible.
It means connecting with yourself and other like-minded women who can encourage and support you along the way…

So I designed a week full of rest, play, nourishment, connection, healing, and uplevelment in a magical place that was already near and dear to my heart, Puerto Vallarta Mexico!

I took a group of 8 women with me to paradise and, long story short, the retreat was a smashing success that transformed lives and now I’ve been hosting them on and off ever since!

What the Radical Self-Love Retreat is Like

The Radical Self-Love Retreat is not your typical retreat.

Not only is it an entire week dedicated to you and improving your relationship with yourself, but it’s a fun girls’ trip for spiritual girlies young and old!

On the retreat we spend time resting on the beach, tanning by the pool, getting pampered, going on fun excursions like ride ATV’s, and shopping the local markets, we talk about all things self-love, we connect with all the amazing women in attendance, we take part in cocoa ceremonies, sound healing, reiki, daily yoga overlooking the ocean, eat spectacular food, and so much more!

But most importantly, we carve time out of our busy lives just for ourselves.

No distractions, no work. No kids. No significant others. Just us, the beach and the jungle.

And you know what my favorite part about the retreat is? Every single woman who has come on one so far now refers to their life as “pre-retreat” and “post-retreat” because they are that transformative. 

It’s not uncommon for me to hear feedback like:

“Before the retreat, I was so lonely and stuck… now I’ve made these lifelong friends and I have clarity in my next best step.”

“Before the retreat, I was too scared to start my business, but now I’m going for it!”

“Before the retreat, I settled for mediocre partners and friends, but now my healthy standards are raised and I attract much better connections.”

“Before the retreat I never let myself feel my feelings or know how to hold space for myself, now I’m a master of my emotions and I have more self-compassion and resilience than ever before.”

The retreat acts like an initiation into women’s next chapter, and I absolutely love being a support pillar in that. (Especially because all my retreat attendees get to keep working with me on-on-one, post-retreat so that they can integrate everything they have opened, learned, and activated into their life at home.)

The Importance of Sisterhood and Self-Love Retreats

The true essence of the Radical Self-Love women's retreats lies in the power of sisterhood. Even if we didn’t do any healing work or self-love activations, just the act of gathering alone holds so much power.

When women gather, we create a supportive and empowering community that fosters deep connections and shared experiences. This sense of belonging and mutual support is essential for our health, healing, and personal growth.

Oh, did you think you were the only woman who struggled to love herself and practice true self-care? Think again!

Studies have even shown that women who maintain close relationships with other women are more likely to experience lower stress levels, improved mental health, and greater overall well-being. (This is why each retreat now comes with its own group chat that lives on past the trip.)

Healing Through Connection: The Power of Women’s Retreats

The Radical Self-Love Retreat offers a unique opportunity for women to disconnect from their daily routines and immerse themselves in a space dedicated to healing and self-love.

Imagine if a yoga retreat and a girlie sleepover had a baby… that’s the vibe of this unique experience.

Through a combination of yoga, meditation, and various wellness activities, participants get to reconnect with their inner selves and each other, in a gorgeous villa by the beach! The shared experiences during these retreats help everyone build trust, empathy, and understanding among the participants, creating a strong foundation for lasting friendships.

The Benefits of a Self-Care Retreat in Mexico

Choosing Mexico as the backdrop for the self-love retreats is no accident. Not only is Mexico much more relaxed and slow-paced than the U.S. (perfect for soothing the nervous system), Vallarta is a magical place that adds an extra layer of tranquility and beauty to the whole healing experience.

Considering the U.S. is practically invented the capitalistic "matrix” that can drive us to insanity, it’s important to get out and experience the vibration of a more friendly, community-first, quality of life country like Mexico.

The tropical setting provides a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, allowing women to fully relax, recharge, and be nourished by the beauty of the ocean and mountains. And of course, the food is unbeatable.

Why Every Woman Should Attend a Yoga and Self-Love Retreat

Although I don’t call these Radical Self-Love Retreats “yoga retreats” (because they are so much more than a few yoga classes and a place to stay) we do incorporate daily rooftop yoga into the retreat to enhance the healing process by promoting physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Not to mention the view…

Gentle yoga helps to release tension, improve flexibility, increase mindfulness, and connect you to your body, making it an ideal practice for anyone on a journey of self-discovery and healing. Our yoga sessions are designed to cater to all levels, ensuring that every woman feels comfortable and supported throughout her practice.
