Previous Retreat Testimonials:

  • "Rachel is the most inspirational person I’ve ever met. She is so real and grounded. She leads by example and makes it easy to follow. She is vulnerable and joyful and supportive in the most amazing way. Her retreats are more than I could ever have dreamt. There’s yoga, meditation, cold plunges, gourmet healthy meals, a beautiful atmosphere, dance parties, journaling, laughter, tears, nature and so much more. The gift bags were so sweet and allows you to bring a part of the retreat home. I am so glad I took a chance on me. It allowed me to meet my true self and my soul sisters."

    -Amber

  • "...And RACHEL. Instagram does not even show you a slice of how magically magnetic she is. Her creative brain is something I admire, as well as her heart for her tribe. She is as genuine as they come. Five stars. 10/10. All the points to your favorite Hogwarts House. You want to go on one of these retreats, I promise you. My heart is open, my cup is full, and I would do this all again in a heartbeat. Many thanks to Rachel for putting this all together for us!"

    -Courtney

  • "The retreat was nothing short of magical ✨ The genuine soul connections made during this retreat are a testament to Rachel and the beautiful, safe space she held for us. I entered the retreat full of self doubt and worry. I left filled with self compassion, gratitude and acceptance. I’m already looking forward to another retreat in the future! I am so grateful for each and every person that made the weekend so vibrant and special 💞"

    -Nikki

  • "There were the perfect amount of women at this retreat. I felt like I genuinely got to create lasting friendships and it was amazing to be in a circle of people where no cliques formed, but we all just held space for each other's uniqueness. Rachel outdid herself, as she always does. I feel so honored and blessed to have spent the retreat learning from her, laughing with her, and feeding off her infectious energy. If I had to give a word? Magic."

    -Christina

  • "This retreat was beautiful and transformational. It allowed me to access suppressed thoughts and share them in a safe space with incredible new friends. I loved the group activities and shared meals. The food was so insanely good - chef Hannah is so talented! Rachel is just a naturally fantastic host and I felt welcomed and comfortable from the moment I got there till the end. By far my favorite part of retreats is making new connections and creating memories together. I’ve made friends for life and nothing beats that. This retreat also felt very upscale and was well worth the cost."

    -Kirsten

  • "...it was mainly being in a safe space with a group of girls who were not judge-mental. This allowed me to access a deeper part of my feelings and therefore created the opportunity for healing"

  • "I left feeling way more centered and supported. I was able to experience genuine joy being my true self, and not be judged. I have a renewed sense of confidence in myself and hope for my future."

  • "I realized when talking about embodiment, I have spend a lot of time trying to become as disconnected from my body as possible as a way of coping with pain. I feel as if instead of honoring by body I’ve been at war with it, I’ve resented it, and it has not been healthy as a result. I learned that healing means I need to work with my body and not against it. To love and nurture this vessel because it’s the only one I will have in this lifetime"

  • "The workshops were also FAB. Rachel made sure that there was a good mix of practitioners present to help us learn various healing modalities. Every single guest that attended added value to my journey and helped me better connect to my authentic self. I learned something about myself in every workshop and I had so much fun being playful, flowing, and pushing my boundaries (hello cold plunge!). The environment created in the workshops made me feel safe to share and be seen (something that I chronically struggle with)."
