About this trip

Empower yourself to grow through a challenging, yet fulfilling experience on this Kilimanjaro Women's Retreat: Beyond the Summit!


Picture this: you standing strong and proud, a group of inspiring women supporting you, and one of the most epic mountains in the world!


Led by experienced female guides and a dedicated facilitator (me!), this retreat combines physical endurance with moments for self-reflection, empowerment, and bonding with incredible women. We’ll dive into Tanzanian culture, learn from local guides, and lean on each other for support as we push past physical and mental limits together.


This isn’t just about reaching the summit; it’s about reconnecting with your TRUE self, building real friendships, and feeling a deep sense of empowerment


We'll achieve this by...


- Reflecting each day on our experiences and offering support to one another

- Using effective healing techniques like EFT (I'll show you its magic!) to unblock our limiting beliefs

- Moving our bodies with intention to start and end the day strong

- Enjoying some rest and recharge time

- Meditating with our inner child to heal, grow, and feel a deep sense of self love

- Having fun, playing, and laughing A LOT - after all, laughter is the best medicine ;)

- Being present with nature and allowing the healing powers of Mama Nature to do her work

- Connecting with a different culture to gain a new perspective on life


We'll embrace the power of collective support, shared goals, and the beauty of authentic connections as we overcome challenges, celebrate triumphs, and unlock a newfound sense of purpose on this epic adventure.


Fun fact about me, Tricia: Tanzania has a special place in my heart. I spent a year living in Moshi (where our retreat starts and ends), completely falling in love with the culture, the welcoming people, and the stunning natural beauty. It’s hands-down one of my favorite places in the world—I even have a tattoo to prove it! 


The friendships and experiences I had during that time were life-changing (seriously, I left a completely different person as a more open, aware version of myself), and I can’t wait to share the magic of Tanzania with you on this retreat. You’ll get to see why it’s so close to my heart while creating your own unforgettable memories.


I can't wait to have this magical, soul-filling experience with you!
