“The Barbados Women’s Wellness Retreat was the getaway I didn’t know I needed. In less than a week I had the opportunity to relax, restore and regain focus on what is most important to me in this phase of my life and career. And, I got to do it with a group of incredibly impressive women who inspired, encouraged, and energized me in ways I couldn’t have imagined. Accommodations, activities, and atmosphere were ideal. Still generating positive energy from memories of this amazing retreat.”

“I just have to share... spent a week in a women's retreat at La Maison Michelle: Barbados Luxury Villa. I had THE BEST time! Each suite in the villa is unique, matched only by the bespoke experiences planned just for our group. Yoga, catamaran, sightseeing, chef-prepared meals. Pinch me!  And I had known only a couple of the women at this "Pause" retreat beforehand…we all bonded! I can't wait to go back!”
