Bali Self Love Retreat: Open for signups (SEPTEMBER 6-11) View Bali Retreat Schedule, Pricing, & More

As a girl, I struggled immensely in female friendships, especially in groups.

I was paralyzingly insecure, bullied a lot, and always felt like I had to beg just to be included.

By the time I was 21, I was convinced I was just too much for people, but also not enough for people, and that I just didn't do well in group dynamics.

What I didn't realize was that the problem wasn't me as a friend or a person. It was that how I saw myself led me to choose people who saw me so negatively too.

I was self-sabotaging, then using my feelings of loneliness and being misunderstood as evidence that I deserved to be left out - just like when I was 12.

My unhealthy relationship with myself was stopping me from having deep, supportive, safe relationships with other people too.

It wasn't until I did my own self love & body image work (via coaching, therapy, self-education and daily practice) that something shifted.

I joined retreats, workshops, conferences, classes and clubs that were focused on self-love so I could heal & meet likeminded people.

And I realized I actually don't suck (!!), and that the right women would love exactly who I am.

Once I believed that, my friendships completely changed - because I changed.

I started showing up as myself for the first time and found people who loved that person. The painful experiences I'd carried since childhood started to feel like they were being rewritten.

Most of us don't meet our people when we're young, because we don't know who we are yet.

But when you put time into learning to love yourself, you inevitably bring into your life the right people who can love you the way you deserve.

The loneliness so many of us feel isn't permanent. It's a story that needs to be rewritten, and putting yourself in the room with others who have the same values is how you do it.

In September, I'm hosting my Bali Self Love Retreat from September 6-11, 2026.

It's exclusive to women only, limited to 14 sisters.

If you're looking for friendships that feel safe, open and supportive, this is where your people will be that week.

It is 6 days of self-love workshops, group adventures, and time to relax.

Everything (food, transport, accommodation, activities, amenities, infinite coffee, etc.) is taken care of once you land at the airport in Bali.

If that's your vibe: all the Bali retreat details + signup page are here.​

And if you're curious about joining us in Bali but not sure it's for you, Book your ​free 20min. Retreat Consultation​ Call here.​

We will rewire limiting beliefs, build real self-trust, create lasting shifts in how you feel in your body, and have a lot of fun in the process.

We still have a few seats left, for the woman ready to put an end to the noise & self doubt + finally take up space. I hope to see you there.
