“There are NO words to describe the way being on this trip made me feel! The Self-Care retreat never disappoints. From the accommodations to the day trips to the sisterhood you create while here. I can’t wait for my next one!!”

Here Is Your Why

I had a wonderful time meeting women who like me believe in the power and intentionality of self-care. I have extended my family and so grateful for Shanicia for creating a safe space to remove what no longer serves me to make room for what will serve me.

— Yvonne B•The Self Care Retreat: The Art Of Adornment 2023
This has been an amazing experience and I’m so happy that I got the opportunity to be able to share it with my cousin and new friends. It was such a great experience and I am grateful to have met so many wonderful people. I hope to have more of these wonderful memories with the people I have met and the way that we have been able to connect with each other in some ways.

— Jessie D•The Self Care Retreat: A Journey Through Africa 2023
Italy was my first trip with The Self Care Retreat and I have to say my Italian experience was luxurious. Whether in Amalfi or Tuscany, I woke up daily to beautiful views of the Tyrrhenian Sea or wine vines and mountains. The food, tours, and accommodation were five-star and I also met some wonderful ladies. Thank you to Shanicia Boswell and The Self Care Retreat this was a trip for the books.❤️

My daughter and I attended this Mommy & Me retreat in Colombia, and it was absolutely magical! From the peaceful beaches to the incredible facilitators who created such a safe space for healing and connection, every moment was unforgettable. Sharing this experience with other amazing moms and daughters made it even more special—we laughed, cried, and grew closer in ways I never imagined. We left feeling lighter, deeply connected, and so grateful. Truly an experience every mother and daughter should have! 💕
