This is not a conference.
This is not a girls’ trip.

This is a space intentionally created for women ready to put the weight down.
The strong ones.
The dependable ones.
The ones who hold it all together.

This weekend… you don’t have to.

Picture

RESERVE YOUR SPOT

The Boundaries & Becoming Retreat is an intimate, doctor-led experience created with Black women in mind—designed for those ready to stop surviving on autopilot and begin living with intention.

This is for the woman who knows something has to change.
The one who is always showing up…
but rarely slowing down.

The one everyone depends on…
but no one checks on
.

This space is for women who are:
  • Ready to stop overextending themselves
  • Carrying more than they’ve had space to process
  • Seeking clarity, rest, and intentional change
  • Willing to do the work in a safe, supportive environment

​This retreat is not about fixing you.
It is about helping you become H.E.R. — Healed. Evolved. Restored.

​
