A Sanctuary for Us: Join the Empowered We Rise Retreat

The world today continues to challenge us. As BIPOC, we navigate spaces that often demand our resilience without offering refuge. The weight of injustice, the exhaustion of always being “on,” and the need for a place to simply be—these realities make safe spaces not just a luxury, but a necessity.

That’s why we created Empowered We Rise, a retreat designed for us.

From April 24-27, 2025, we will gather in community, in a space where we don’t have to explain ourselves—where joy, rest, and healing are our priorities. Together, we will:

🌿 Join Compassionate Presence Circles—safe spaces where we witness and honor each other’s stories
🌿 Cook and share nourishing meals
🌿 Participate in powerful attendee-led workshops
🌿 Move, dance, and celebrate our bodies
🌿 Laugh, rest, and maybe even cuddle

Our Home for the Retreat

We will be gathering in Portland, Oregon, in a beautiful and spacious Airbnb home that offers comfort, warmth, and a deep sense of belonging. This inviting space will provide plenty of room for rest, connection, and communal living—allowing us to share meals, stories, and moments of joy together. Surrounded by nature and the calm of the Pacific Northwest, this home is the perfect sanctuary for our time together. Details will be provided once your registration is approved.

This retreat is more than a getaway—it’s a reclamation of joy, of softness, of the right to exist fully and freely.

Space is limited. Reserve your spot now and give yourself the gift of connection, healing, and liberation.
