October 25 - 28th
West Palm Beach, FL

"It's an experience you will never forget." It's time for your "YOU-cation"

Are you currently feeling stuck, lost, hopeless, or stressed? Do you have a desire to reconnect with yourself and rediscover hope and purpose in your life? You are invited to relax, recharge, and reconnect on this 4-day, 3-night all-inclusive retreat in beautiful South Florida under palm trees and sunny blue skies. It encompasses exactly what you need to bring you back into alignment with yourself. The Days...

The days will start off with sunrise meditations and yoga that focus on gratitude, self-love, and body acceptance. Each day you will be immersed in and connected to nature, engage in gentle movements, and work on yourself with self-exploration and personal growth workshops. You will become aware of what has been holding you back by exploring your fears, limiting beliefs, excuses, and narratives. You will then set goals and create a vision for your future self. You will eat delicious food provided by a private chef, enjoy outdoor excursions, and take part in interactive fun games. You will get individual attention and receive a personalized one-on-one counseling session with your host, Larisa. You'll be treated to a facial and receive skin care guidance by a very talented esthetician. The retreat is balanced with ample free-time to do whatever you may like. In addition to attending to your spiritual and personal growth, you will be amongst a small group of like-minded women who you will make authentic and genuine connections with in a private, serene location. Leaving The Retreat...

You will leave the retreat feeling deeply connected to yourself with a newfound awareness of what has been holding you back and an action plan to get to where you want to be. The retreat will equip you with new skills and knowledge to immediately implement into your life. The Foundation...

With all of that said, the foundation for this retreat is kindness, comfort, and acceptance. You can come knowing that you will be included, accepted, and comfortable above all else. And, of course, you will have lots of FUN!

Have you ever gotten annoyed, angry, or sad over something small… and then thought, “Why did I react like that? It wasn’t even a big deal, so why does it hurt so much?”

That is how unhealed wounds show up in our everyday lives. A small moment happens, but it hits a much deeper place inside of you—one that’s still tender, still raw, still waiting to be healed…

Imagine having an open scab. If someone put salt on it, even the tiniest bit would sting intensely. But once that scab heals you could put salt on it and it wouldn’t hurt anymore. You might still see the mark—but the pain isn’t there.

That’s what healing does.

This is why paying attention to your triggers and becoming aware of where they actually come from is so important. It gives you the chance to look inward, to understand yourself, and to heal—so your present-day reactions aren’t emotional flashbacks from your past 🤍

THIS is The Shift 💫

You know that feeling when you feel safe to be who you are and say what you feel?

The feeling of comfort in knowing that you belong, that you’re accepted (flaws and all), and supported?

The feelings of safety and comfort in knowing that it’s okay to be vulnerable and you’ll still be loved?

THAT is the feeling at The Shift Retreat 🤍

“The Shift Tips” are simple practices for the emotions and challenges we all face. Each tip begins with a real statement I’ve encountered, whether from a client, a friend, a family member, or myself. My hope is that “The Shift Tips” help you feel less alone in the emotions you face and give you practical ways to navigate the harder moments of being human 🤍

The Shift Tip: If you’ve ever felt that all of a sudden, a huge change occurred in your life — you are not alone. Life has ways of sending us into a spiral through sudden shifts that transform who we are.

1️⃣ Ground yourself…

A huge change or sudden shift can send your body into overdrive — it’s like going straight into survival mode: fearful, panicked, and unsure. When everything feels uncertain, come back to this moment using your senses. Notice your breath. Feel your feet on the floor. Name what you see, hear, and touch. Grounding yourself allows your body to calm, your mind to settle, and your heart to begin to see beyond what’s happening.

2️⃣ Take a step back to process…

You don’t have to have it all figured out right now. Give yourself permission to slow down and process the emotions, thoughts, and feelings — without judgment. Talk to a friend. Journal everything that’s swirling inside you. Let it all come out. Healing and clarity often start when we stop trying to control the outcome and simply allow ourselves to feel.

3️⃣ It’s happening FOR you, not to you…

When we believe that something greater — whether that’s God, the universe, or divine timing — is working in our favor, we can begin to trust the process even through the fear. You may still feel anxious, uncertain, or sad, but you can also trust that this is happening for a reason. Each challenge carries a lesson, shaping who you are — not breaking you. Growth hides inside the moments that feel the hardest.

I hope this helps🤍

Happy Friday! ☀️ Let’s reflect on this quote... you set the standard for how others treat you.

What this means is that the way you allow, respond to, and reinforce other people’s behavior toward you teaches them what is acceptable and what isn’t.

1. You model what is acceptable... if you tolerate disrespect, broken boundaries, or inconsistency without actually addressing it, other people learn that it’s okay to treat you that way.

2. Your self-worth guides your boundaries... your internal beliefs about what you deserve sets the tone externally. When you value yourself, you’re less likely to overextend without getting anything back, accept poor treatment, or chase validation. Start becoming aware of the internal beliefs and values that you have for yourself.

3. Change begins with you... we can’t control other people’s behaviors or actions. However, we can control our own standards and boundaries that we place. When we raise our own standards (communicating directly, walking away, honoring our own needs), the people around us will start to see what we’re okay with and what we’re not.

THIS is The Shift 💫

When we give ourselves the permission to look within, to feel the raw & painful emotions, and heal from the inside out, a Shift happens ✨

The Shift is the moment you begin to see yourself through a new lens - one of compassion, clarity, and possibility…

It’s when self-respect and self-love replace self-criticism and blame…

It’s is the choice to face the parts of you that need healing, not with shame, but with empowered intention.

The Shift is the turning point where healing, growth, and transformation begin 🤍

THIS is why the retreat is called The Shift.

“The Shift Tips” are simple practices for the emotions and challenges we all face. Each tip begins with a real statement I’ve encountered, whether from a client, a friend, a family member, or myself. My hope is that “The Shift Tips” help you feel less alone in the emotions you face and give you practical ways to navigate the harder moments of being human 🤍

The Shift Tip: If you’ve ever felt like you can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel... like life feels heavy and you’re unsure when things will feel good again — you’re not alone. Hard seasons don’t last forever… even when it feels like they might.

1️⃣ Acknowledge the season you’re in… It’s okay to admit that things are hard right now. Naming your struggle doesn’t make you weak. It allows you to look at your situation honestly, with awareness. Acceptance is often the first step to start seeing the light.

2️⃣ Look for small moments of relief… When life gets overwhelming, focus on what’s right in front of you — a warm cup of coffee, sunlight through the window, laughter from someone you love. These little moments are reminders that the good still exists, even during this time.

3️⃣ Trust that this won’t last forever… Every challenging chapter eventually shifts. You may not see the way out yet, but each day you’re learning, growing, and being guided toward a new version of yourself. Ironically, growth isn’t what happens after the hard moments… it’s what is unfolding through them.

I hope this helps🤍

Happy Monday! Let this be your reminder that it’s okay to say YES to you.

Self-care is not selfish — it’s necessary ✨

Life will guide you if you let it 💫

It’s natural to feel like we have to push, plan, and control everything… it’s just the nature of being human. However, when we practice loosening our grip and trying to control every step of the way, life, the universe, God will start leading the way… guiding and showing you exactly where to go.

✨ Here’s some ways to practice:

• Listen within instead of rushing. Slow down enough to notice what feels peaceful or forced.

• Trust detours. The plans that fall apart often lead you exactly where you’re meant to be. Trust that when one door closes, another will open.

• Accept & lean into the flow of life. It’s much easier to go “with” the current of life than fighting against it.

THIS is The Shift ✨

“The Shift Tips” are simple practices for the emotions and challenges we all face. Each tip begins with a real statement I’ve encountered, whether from a client, a friend, a family member, or myself. My hope is that “The Shift Tips” help you feel less alone in the emotions you face and give you practical ways to navigate the harder moments of being human 🤍

The Shift Tip: If you’ve ever felt guilty for saying “no,” or found yourself overextending to keep others happy, you’re not alone… and it doesn’t make you selfish for wanting peace.

1️⃣ Notice the guilt & then reframe…
when guilt arises, pause and reframe: “this feeling doesn’t mean I’m doing something wrong — it just means I’m doing something different.” Guilt often shows up when we break old patterns of people-pleasing.

2️⃣ Redefine what boundaries mean…
Boundaries aren’t walls — they’re necessary to keep you & your relationships healthy. When you say “no” to something that drains you, you’re actually saying “yes” to your own peace and alignment.

3️⃣ Practice honoring your needs…
throughout the day, practice asking yourself, “What do I need right now?” Then give yourself permission to follow through. The more you practice meeting your own needs, the easier it becomes to trust yourself.

I hope this helps 🤍
