#HereWeGrow

Three Days. 40 Women. Life-Changing Conversations.

Here We Grow, our annual self-care retreat, now in its FIFTH year, is designed to give you permission to move yourself up on your priority list. Each year, 40 women from across the country come together for one weekend of self-care, sisterhood and exploration. It is indeed a game-changer.

What takes place during Here We Grow?

● Conversations to give you clarity on where you are and where you’re headed
● Opportunities to hear from mental health experts
● Hands-on workshops developed to create change that lasts when you get home
● Massages, good food and sightseeing in a new city each year

When does the retreat take place? 

We typically host Here We Grow each September, in a new city each year. For our first year, we set up camp in Alexandria, Virginia, minutes away from the nation’s capital. For year two, we headed to the ocean, with HereWeGrow16 in sunny Virginia Beach. Our third and fourth year drew us to NOLA to soak up some self-care on Bourbon Street.

Join our mailing list to hear where we’re headed in year five and be among the first to get access to tickets!

Testimonials

  • “Having that many strong black women in one location was beautiful and amazing. The energy was rejuvenating and I'm definitely looking forward for the next one.”
  • “I witnessed about 40 different women from all walks of life move in harmony the entire weekend. I broke bread with women who are in many ways just like me...dedicated, motivated, educated, moms, wanting to make a change & authentically audacious!”
  • “I was able to relax as a black woman, have deep discussions with other black women, laugh, giggle, tilt my head to the side and give major side eye with black women and not have to explain it! I truly enjoyed myself.”
  • “I can’t even formulate the words to describe what this past weekend means to me. I connected with myself and my friends in ways I could’ve never imagined. We were talking that last day and I was telling the ladies how from our perspective, everything was 110% PERFECTION.”
