Dear Black Goddess,
Are you ready…
…for time and space to unplug, decompress, and reconnect with yourself?
…to have a unique New Year’s experience so you can make peace with 2021 and powerfully welcome 2022 with more pleasure and flow?
…to learn advanced tools that will help decrease chronic stress and recover from daily stressors?
…to understand why sensual, sexual vitality is essential to live an enriched life?
…to let go of the brutal strong Black woman cycle and embrace new ways to express your soft, gentle feminine nature so you can enjoy life more?
On this retreat you’ll open up to what it means to express more femininity so you can claim your pleasure, your power and your exquisite softness.
Emerge refreshed, renewed & resilient.
““It’s invaluable.”
I just wanted to thank you both again for an amazing weekend. I learned so much and met some really great women. I appreciate you both and the time to you took to share this information with us; it’s invaluable. -Malika (2021)
HEAL
It’s time to let go of the push, grind, hustle and sloooowww down. Imagine having a sacred retreat space for you to soften, catch your breath, and let go. Begin your day with a sunrise walk along the beach as you reflect on what you want to release from 2021 and create for 2022.
Your sunrise walk is followed by a deliciously fresh and healthy breakfast prepared by our private chef. You are joined by a sister circle of women who are also ready to embody their feminine power. We’ll be sharing, laughing and being real with each other.
Your relaxing morning flows into a powerful and moving Black Goddess workshop full of ahas, revelations and everything you wish you knew decades ago. You’ll have the precious time to reconnect with what you really really want. And be given secrets on how to finally manifest them.
No jam packed workshops from sunrise to sunset. We’ll give you plenty of intentional reflection time to really decompress and relax. Sit on the beach, take a nap, go for a long walk, or meet some new friends. Whatever your heart desires.
No cell phones, no distractions, no work, nobody and no one bothering and pullin’ on you, so no need to multitask. This is your opportunity to completely unplug and disconnect from it all… if you choose to!
In the evening, retire to your cute private apartment to rest or do whatever you want (no explanations or excuses needed :-)). Accommodations are singles only in your own one bedroom apartment only two blocks from the beach. Yaaas!
That’s how we’ll be spending our days together until our magical New Year’s Eve celebration. This will be a New Year’s experience that you never had but always wanted.
Sis, it’s been a hard couple of years (COVID, natural disasters, protests). So you know THIS IS THE YEAR to ask yourself the hard questions and confront those things you’ve been avoiding. Let this retreat experience help you get the awareness and courage to release what no longer serves you.
Together, we’ll create the space and teach you practical tools to help you confront the hard stuff with love, compassion and acceptance.
It’s time to be FREE! It’s time to HEAL!
““5 star retreat. Loved their teaching style. Overall relaxing/calming experience.” Annette (2021)
IGNITE
When was the last time you felt pleasure all over your body from head to toe? Are you wondering, “what does that even mean?” It’s okay, because most of us haven’t mastered our pleasure in that way.
The world needs more Black women in their pleasure so we can stop surviving and start thriving. But, instead, everyday stressors get in the way and you get pushed into the destructive strong Black woman cycle.
When you’re in the cycle of overgiving and overdoing it’s easy to overlook or deny the impact of chronic stress. You know stress from things like relationship & work drama, body pain and discomfort, sleepless nights and restlessness…all the things that scream “I’m stressed the f*ck out!” Or maybe life feels dull, boring and uninspiring as you go through the motions, asking “is this all there is ???”
It’s time to lay down the burdens of the heavy sword and armour and, instead, surround yourself with what makes you happier, more playful, light and free. During this retreat, you’ll learn proven and practical tools so you can release chronic stress and break the strong Black woman cycle.
You’ll gain a new toolkit of practices that are easy to implement. These tools will deepen your pleasure practice and support you in embracing new ways to express your soft, gentle feminine nature.
You’ll also practice sacred, ancient movement exercises that release stress, connect with your forgotten pleasure centers and bring you to a sense of peace and calm.
Throughout the retreat, and especially on New Year’s, we’ll take advantage of being near the beach so you can ground and reconnect with nature.
We’ll walk you through the Black Goddess Year End Release Method. A powerful process that will help you bring healthy closure to 2021 and invite more pleasure, flow and fun into 2022.
All of this will allow you to tap into your Black Goddess essence. You’ll soothe your spirit, nurture your heart, and ignite your freedom.
“Thank you for an absolutely life-changing retreat. Huge shout out to all in this fabulous tribe for the sisterhood, laughs, embrace, understanding, openness and genuine love. This retreat was far more than I imagined and far more than I can sum up in this post.” Chandra Joseph-Lacet
AWAKEN
It’s day 4 – January 2, 2022. You’ve taken the time. You’ve been radically honest with yourself. You have the tools, the clarity, plus the courage to confidently step into your feminine power and tap into your deepest desires.
You understand exactly why sexual feminine vitality enriches all areas of your life. And you’re committed to stopping the struggle and allowing things to flow to you easily and effortlessly.
You’re ready to reclaim pleasure as your birthright. Not just in words or as a cute meme, but for real.
When deeply connected to pleasure in daily life you feel clear about your desires, relaxed in your body, more loving, more creative and unwavering in your worth. So it’s easier…
..To unapologetically prioritize yourself.
…To ask for what you want (no more pleasing people!)
…To claim your deepest desires. Even the ones that scare the sh*t out of you (or especially those).
You’re ready to regularly and consistently live in your pleasure and you now know what exactly that looks like for you. It may look different than what you thought it should look like or different than how others do it, but that’s okay. It’s your way, your life, your pleasure, your satisfaction, your desire.
You’ve awakened the Black Goddess within you.
Now you call forth a life that’s DRIPPING with pleasure. You’re not going back. This time you have a sisterhood, a support system and a plan to succeed.
