What to Expect...

At the Vibrant Happy Women's Retreat you'll embark on a heartfelt journey back to your true self, navigating through the dense forests of your own uncertainties and fears.

These sessions are a sanctuary for shedding the weight of old beliefs and emotions that have kept you stuck in the same spot, offering a clear path to what truly matters to you. It's an opportunity to uplevel into the most authentic, confident, and radiant version of yourself.

Beyond the transformative work, you'll bask in the simple joys of life that touch the spirit. Imagine the feeling of the wind as you learn to sail on the open sea, the underwater marvels you'll encounter snorkeling, the thrill of swinging through the air at the flying trapeze school, and the satisfaction of hitting the mark in archery.

With access to kayaks, paddle boards, tennis, pickleball, swimming pools, and the captivating shows, not to mention unlimited delicious gourmet food and drinks, all set against the backdrop of the Caribbean's white-sand beaches, you're in for an experience that will fuel your soul.

Hi, I’m Jen Riday...

If you're walking the same path as most women, you know the terrain of overwhelm, stress, and sheer exhaustion all too well. Imagine setting that heavy load down for five sweet days.

The Vibrant Happy Women's Retreat invites you into a space where you can let go of the burdens of stress, overwhelm, and anxiety that have kept you stuck. It's here that you can evolve into the most vibrant, confident, and capable version of yourself, even when the world outside feels unyielding.

Gifting your loved ones with your happiness is one of the most profound acts of love. It's showing your kids, your partner, and your friends that fear doesn't get to ride shotgun and that crafting an identity, a plan, and a life filled with joy is not just possible—it's essential.

You'll walk away from this transformative gathering ablaze with energy, focus, and clarity, ready to step boldly into the next chapter of your life.

With love,

Jen

The Vibrant Happy Women's Retreat is perfect for you if...

 

* You've been craving heart-centered friendships with genuine women who love personal growth as much as you do.

* You're tired of running in circles, chasing your tail on that endless hamster wheel.

* You're searching for clarity, a moment of stillness in the chaos, and a sense of your "next steps" in life.

* You're open to introspection and doing the deep, soulful work that creates lasting change.

* You're ready to be happy and free - with no responsibilities - for five whole days!

* You're ready to ignite your energy, unleash your confidence, and let your inner light shine brighter than ever.

The Vibrant Happy Women's Retreat is NOT a good fit if...

 

* You're only interested in a destination without the transformation.

* You're not a fan of introspection, self-exploration, or personal growth.

* You're hostile, skeptical, defensive, or closed-minded and unwilling to embrace new ideas or a little bit of adventure.

* You're unwilling to be a good listener and help create emotional safety for everyone at the retreat.

* You're looking for a quick fix and unwilling to do the deep work of change and growth.

* You struggle with severe mental health issues (sorry, the retreat is not equipped with the resources to help you properly at this time).

Being an introvert, I didn't know if this would be my kind of thing, but the Vibrant Happy Women's Retreat was truly an amazing and life changing experience for me. It was so energizing and fulfilling that I can't really find a way to describe it...you just need to experience for yourself the power of spending time in a beautiful setting with women who bring out the best in you and make you see your life from a new, empowered perspective.

Happy Women's Retreat today

A heartfelt reminder to ponder:

As nurturers by nature, many of us readily pour our energy into meeting the wants and needs of those we love (be it supporting your child's musical journey or indulging your partner's latest gadget fascination), yet too often, we sideline our soulful yearnings. Recognizing the value of nurturing ourselves is paramount to our well-being.

Why does this matter?

When you prioritize your own needs and happiness, you silently give permission for your daughters, friends, and sisters to do the same. Take the first step on this path of self-empowerment by signing up for the Vibrant Happy Women's Retreat today.

Let's nurture ourselves, together.
