I used to go away for my birthday (in March) every year, but now that I have kids, it doesn’t line up with a school break and I’ve had to adapt. Fortunately we just returned from the most incredible experience over the February break.

Due to this, I’m now hosting my first-ever retreat and I hope you’ll join me! But first, let me back up and explain…

About a year after my son’s serious accident, I was burned out and beyond exhausted.

I spoke with a healer (no, not myself. Another one, lol!) and she told me I needed to go on a retreat in Mexico. She was very specific, but I thought she was crazy. She knew I had 3 young kids – one with special needs and the other was still very much healing from his accident. I also don’t have a “village” or support from family where I can just pick up and leave, even for a day. Retreats always seem to target people who already have the time and support for self-care.

But I really loved her vision and felt it in my bones. I needed a break. Not just as a fun vacation but as a source of deep healing. It took over a year from that conversation, but I finally did experience what she said I needed. I’ve had success with manifestation in the past, so perhaps unconsciously I did manifest the unique and incredible, life changing family trip we had recently.

Now I know that something I always thought was a contradiction – to both have children AND have a relaxing and invigorating holistic wellness experience – is actually possible. And on to the exciting news: I’m beyond to thrilled to host a retreat in the same spot next February! So please, join me in the Mayan Riviera for my Recharge Retreat catering to burned-out Moms (and Dads!), super busy, non-stop entrepreneurs (and people in general) who have the option of bringing their kids! And don’t worry… the kids are not part of the retreat. That’s the best part!

Let me explain. No judgement, and you know I LOVE my kids, but everyone needs some time for themselves. It’s important for a relationship with your partner and important for your own self-care to have time to focus on something other than the little ones.

It’s not just parents. We are ALL running around like crazy. We are on overload and overdrive. We need a chance to get off the train and come to a full stop. Take a breath, relax and start back up again SLOWLY.

This retreat offers the chance to reignite something for you. For me, it restarted the daily meditation practice I had lost for the past few years. But for you maybe it’s more conscious eating; making healthier choices in the kitchen, at the grocery store or in a restaurant. Or maybe it’s aiding in healing an illness or trauma. Maybe it’s bringing in more movement to guide you to more happiness, better sleep or kick-starting weight loss.

Overwhelm, burnout, weight loss, illness, dis-ease, trauma, emotional issues, relationship issues, lack of spirituality or groundedness…. we all have SOMETHING. Something to learn, something to grow, something to change, something to evolve.

So come join me on this special retreat where you get to relax and have fun but also take in time for yourself, get back to who YOU are at your core… and not just oh, you’re so-and-so’s Mom!

Take a look through the retreat page to see all the amazing details, but the short version is: Whether you seek inner peace, physical renewal, or simply a blissful getaway, the Recharge Retreat invites you to embark on a journey of self-discovery and holistic well-being amidst the beauty of Mexico’s Riviera Maya. 5 days/4 nights (with an option to extend) full of all-inclusive gourmet deliciousness (food, snacks, alcoholic & non-alcoholic drinks), holistic wellness rituals and workshops and plenty of rest and relaxation.
