[308] Being Delulu in Barbados: a BTS Look of the recent Self(ish) Retreat

Mom guilt tells us we have to pick a lane: be fully present at home or fully committed to the dream. I’m fresh back from our Barbados Selfish Retreat, and I’m here to tell you what it actually looked like to host a week-long women’s retreat as a mom and come out the other side more grounded, more clear, and honestly more convinced that “having both” is possible.Barbados isn’t just a pretty backdrop. It’s the place that helped bring my life to life, and returning with a new identity, new responsibilities, and a whole lot of real-world logistics brought up so much truth. I share the behind-the-scenes of planning, the post-travel crash that forced me to take real rest, and why the world doesn’t fall apart when we stop treating rest like something we have to earn.We also get into what made this retreat feel so powerful: a luxury villa team that let us receive care, a “delulu” mindset that made possibility feel real again, and the unexpected theme that kept coming up in compliment bags. Women felt safe to be 100% themselves, to wear what they want, speak freely, take up space, and opt out without judgment. The core teaching for the week is self-worth and value, and I walk through tools we used like human design and even a playful “glitter glasses” perspective shift that helped us see our gifts more clearly.Want to be the first to know about the new one?
