Message from Theresa
A Well-Being Retreat That Honors You: Rest, Reset, Reengage in Paradise
This retreat is more than just a getaway—it’s a celebration, a sanctuary, and a gift to yourself.
Last year, I created this retreat as my “love letter” to Black women, a heartfelt response to the deep need for spaces where we could truly rest, reset, and reengage with our best selves. The experience was nothing short of transformative, and I am thrilled to share that this year, the invitation is open to women of all hues—because we each deserve to pour back into our cups and reconnect with what makes us feel alive and whole.
Why BodyHoliday, St. Lucia?
This breathtaking destination was chosen with intention. At BodyHoliday, the focus is on their four pillars of well-being: relaxation, therapeutic cares, exercise, and nutrition. It’s a place where you can finally exhale, with a daily spa treatment INCLUDED for every guest. Yes, you read that right—one luxurious treatment every single day. But beyond the spa treatments, I’ve curated an agenda designed to nurture your spirit, energize your mind, and honor the balance between personal rejuvenation and community nurture.
This Year’s Enhancements
I’ve taken everything I learned from last year’s retreat and added new features to make this year’s experience even more special:
• Room Your Way: Whether you want the privacy of a solo room, the shared joy of traveling with your bestie, or a memorable mother-daughter experience, the choice is yours. With a “special code,” you’ll book directly with BodyHoliday based on what and when is best for you.
• Workshops Just for You: In addition to full-group sessions and meet-ups, you’ll also participate in demographic-specific workshops tailored to the unique lived experiences and needs of Black women, women of color, and white women.
What to Expect
Our agenda will include workshops inspired by select exercises from my book, The WarriHER’s Playbook on Well-Being and Self-Advocacy, designed to help you rest, reset and reengage with purpose and clarity. And let’s be real—while all workshops will be meaningful, they won’t overshadow what we all need most: time and space to rest.
Imagine waking up to the gentle sound of waves, spending your day being pampered and inspired, and ending it laughing, sharing, and connecting with a group of incredible women.
Let’s carve out 7 days to reclaim your joy, rejuvenate our body and mind, and surround ourselves with a community that sees us.
You in?
Spaces are limited, and I’d love for you to be part of this transformative journey. Because if not now, then when?
Let’s rest. Let’s reset. Let’s reengage—together.
With love and anticipation,
Theresa
What Past Retreat Participants Had to Say:
“Theresa made the retreat a fabulous experience for me. I am honored to have been in the space that she created. [The highlights were] meeting the other sisters on the retreat, the way that the retreat program was organized leaving enough time for us as individuals to literally ‘retreat.’”
“One word—nourishing!”
”Meeting & having these enriching experiences with all these incredible, uniquely-amazing Black women. Having a multinational, multidimensional, multifaceted, intergenerational group of Black women was life-changing- there was already a built-in blessing of safety as buy-in for me, which definitely proved to be the case. Each woman was radically kind, loving, & fiercely protective of each other. I really appreciated the 360 Assessment and the words of encouragement and accountability given by Theresa as key takeaways.”
“Although not formally on the agenda per se, [a highlight] was finding kindredship with our facilitator Theresa. Tremendous experience. One thing I would have liked: more time!”

Let’s Do This!
This retreat is more than a getaway—it’s a transformative experience designed for you to rest, reset, and reengage in one of the most beautiful settings on earth. Reserve your spot today and get ready to say yes to yourself.
Ten Reasons to Participate in a Women's Wellness Retreat
(10) Nobody will ask, “But why do you need rest? You don’t have kids!”
(9) You can pack ten pairs of shoes for a one-week retreat and know you’re not alone.
(8) You’ll meet at least one other woman who also gets inexplicably hangry at exactly 4:12 PM and is already carrying snacks for both of you.
(7) No one will judge you for eating dessert first, and there’s a decent chance we’ll all form a dessert-first coalition to make it official.
(6) You can “ugly-cry” during a breakthrough moment without worrying that someone’s recording it for social media.
(5) There’s no pressure to figure out anyone else’s vibe—you’re free to mingle, nap, spa, or sip without worrying about group FOMO.
(4) There’s always one woman who forgot everything—toothpaste, socks, phone charger—and at least five others who will say, “Oh, I’ve got extras!” (Because we women are resourceful like that.)
(3) Group activities include important skills like deciding whether ginger margaritas or mojitos pair best with “deep emotional healing.” (We’ll have workshops and taste tests, don’t worry.)
(2) The full buffet of group activities means you can do everything or absolutely nothing—with zero guilt. But we all know the real joy is in the post-activity debates about whose instructor had the most flair.
And the number one reason to join the retreat…
(1) Because after a week of spa treatments, belly laughs, and purposeful workshopping, you’ll finally achieve that elusive goal: feeling so great and so seen that you accidentally inspire at least one man to take note and say, “Wow… I’ll have what she’s having….a retreat, too.”
