My "VISION" to create a safe place/ retreat for women because I know personally what it feels like to carry heavy burdens and still try to show up strong for everyone else. My own journey has been marked by seasons of deep loss and pain—times when I experienced emotional, physical abuse, homelessness, the heartbreak of losing a business I had poured myself into, and the pain of walking through divorce. Each of those moments left me feeling broken, uncertain, and questioning my worth.
But through it all, I learned to lean on God and trust His purpose for my life, even when I couldn’t see the full picture. What the enemy meant for my destruction, God used to draw me closer to Him. In the midst of my struggles, I discovered the beauty of His peace, the strength of His promises, and the power of pausing long enough to hear His voice.
This retreat was born out of that journey. I wanted to create a space where women could step away from the noise, the pressure, and the pain, and find the same rest, healing, and renewal in God that I did. My heart is to provide a safe haven where women can exhale, release what they’ve been holding, and be reminded that they are deeply loved, chosen, and created with purpose.
I know firsthand that brokenness is not the end of the story—it’s often the very soil where God begins something new. That’s why this retreat exists: to help women pause, reflect, and be restored, so they can walk boldly in the purpose God has for them.
