Let’s Talk Travel:

Retreat Dates: March 1-5, 2023

Location: Tulum, Mexico

Total Attendees: 12

Flights: Book your flight into Cancun on March 1 and home from Cancun on March 5 (Cancun is the nearest airport: a shuttle will take you to Tulum).

Flight Timing:
We recommend arriving between noon-3pm on Wednesday and leaving at noon or later on Sunday since there is a bus ride to the airport. We don’t want you to have to leave super early in the morning!

Flight Tips: We recommend buying as soon as possible, but Tuesdays/Wednesdays tend to be the cheapest purchase days. Also, make sure to check the price of two one-ways: those are often cheaper than one round trip!

Attendees: We will do attendee spotlights in our monthly newsletter and instagram posts leading up to the trip so you get to know the women attending! Spoiler: they are incredible, talented, game-changing women: just like you!

What’s Included?

Meals: In-villa meals will be vegetarian, prepared by our house chef. You will have access to the menus each day and will be provided with snacks, drinks, bottled water, and anything to make your experience perfect! Sample meal plan includes: acai smoothies, veggie tacos, fried plantains, buddha bowls, and more!

We will spend two dinners outside the villa at beautiful restaurants, also a part of your all-inclusive package.


Lodging:
A beautiful, private villa that is within walking distance from downtown Tulum. Ten bedrooms, ten bathrooms, private plunge pools, a full gym- we have it all!

Yacht Day: 5-hour experience on a private yacht! Connect with other attendees and watch the waves from our exclusive boat.

Not Included: Transportation, souvenirs, any food/snacks/purchases made on your own, outside the villa.

What’s on the schedule?

Workshops: The retreat’s workshops will cover topics that are gleaned from attendee interest: what you are interested in! These will be focused on building tangible skills, sparking robust conversation, and ensuring you are leveling up as a professional woman. More details about workshops here.

Small Group Sessions: In the pre-retreat questionnaire, you will identify the career obstacle(s) that you want to overcome. At the retreat, you will share your obstacle in a small group, curated for maximum collaboration, and absorb input from those other women. More details about small group obstacle work here.


Adventures: Some adventures are built into the schedule (ex. yacht day), and others will be guided and optional during each afternoon’s free time. You will get a 3-4 hour block each afternoon that is free. You can opt to go on the 2-hour adventure of the day and return home for a 90-minute shower/nap, or you can opt to hangout at the villa and relax for that time block. Examples of afternoon adventures include exploring a cenote, wandering through Mayan ruins, exploring the town, and more.


Free Time: Each day will include free time throughout the day. As we are close the downtown Tulum, you are always welcome to use that free time as you would like! You can go on a beach bike ride, explore the town, relax, chat with the other women, it’s up to you!

How Should I Prepare?

We’re glad you asked! There are a few ways we will help guide you through preparation to ensure you arrive physically, mentally, and emotionally ready to dive in!

Questionnaire: On the forms tab, you will find a pre-retreat questionnaire. Take some time to think this through and fill it out. This will allow us to curate the content and will also help you begin thinking through GameChanging questions.

Newsletters: We will send monthly newsletters in December, January, and February and each will have tidbits about the retreat, packing tips, attendee spotlights, and more!

Instagram: Follow us on Instagram for inspiring, beautiful content and glimpses of the retreat ahead! In the days leading up to the retreat, we will post a spotlight on each participant so you can meet the incredible women attending.
