I was introduced to this experience through a midnight scroll on IG. And it called out to me. I was soon to turn 40 and I wanted to do something not only for myself, but with intentional heartfelt meaning. This trip gave me more than I asked for. First off and very important to say… everything promised was provided. The lodgings were safe m, clean and private . The destinations were safe. We had adequate SAFE transportation. Notice the word safe please. Everything listed on the itinerary was given. The curators of this experience give intentional thought and consideration. And the gifts provided to us as the attendants are bountiful. I am forever connected to each woman who attended. I took a journey that will follow me for a lifetime. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. May you both continue to be blessed and go on to be a blessing to others.

I would definitely rate this experience a five star! Although there was some bumps in the road like the very long ride to the retreat location, but it was worth it once we arrived. All attendees were greeted by name and warm smiles. The workshops were seriously healing to the soul and the retreat leaders were interactive with us through out the week. The Sonora resort itself was beautifully well put together and the jungle environment itself was just breathtaking. No one was pressured to participate in anything! I went as a single traveler, no kids, and I felt included with everyone else. I left the retreat feeling very empowered, spiritual, awakened, confident, grateful etc, etc , the list goes on! I already booked my next retreat!
By Samantha T for July 31- August 5| Costa Rica Good Vibe Retreat 2024 on Aug 30, 2024
I traveled alone to Costa Rica for the Good Vibes Retreat and my time there was magical and amazing! I will forever cherish the memories and my experience there. Erica and Milah immediately welcomed me with love and kindness. Beautiful and serene energy that allowed me to let go of all that was troubling me . I was awakened and I got a chance to see the best version of myself within. I say that to say this... if you are looking to get away or even just need to be in the presence of like minded women, this is your confirmation! Everything from the food, the scenery, the lodging... it was all EXCEPTIONAL! You will not be pressed to do anything but what feels right to you and you will not experience anything like this ever... Guaranteed!! Say yes to yourself. You will NOT regret it.

This trip went far beyond what I expected. It was truly a "you had to be there" experience to understand the love, healing, joy, and sisterhood that I felt. From the moment we got off the bus, Milah and Erica welcomed us with warm hugs and genuine love. The other women on the trip were so welcoming too, making it easy for me to make friends, even though I traveled alone. The food was freshly prepared, and the activities were incredible—yoga, chocolate-making, the beach, and immersing in Costa Rican culture. If you're on the fence about going, don't hesitate; it's worth every penny and more. The trip was clearly designed to help you connect with your inner goddess and give you a much-needed break from the fast-paced world. I can't wait for the next retreat!

If I could give more stars, I would. This trip was life changing for me. Words can not express how magical it was. It's just something you have to experience for yourself.

I just recently came back from the Costa Rica retreat and I had an amazing time, surrounded by really great women who I met on the trip, also the itinerary was greatly planned out and the goodie bag I received was the best yet that I received with booking a retreat :)

If you are wondering if you should take the leap to experience this trip, DO IT! It is such a life changing experience. A friend asked me what was my favorite part of the trip but I struggled with my answer because there wasn’t just one favorite part. I responded with, “the whole trip was my favorite part” but since then, I have thought more about it and I know my answer now. My favorite part was learning to put myself first, “filling my cup back up”, and meeting so many other beautiful souls wanting to do the same for themselves. I learned to let go and live in the moment and do what I WANT and not what I think someone else wants. Since being home, I have worked at doing the things I enjoy and not allow or at least be more aware of when I am nearing the state of being worn out. I started doing yoga again and meditating, taking time when I need it before reaching empty. As a mom of 3 young children, it can be challenging and almost impossible at times to avoid being burnt out. you give so much of yourself to everyone else and have nothing left for you. This trip, Jamilah and Erica and their team has given me the gift and tools to recharge and feel empowered to be the woman wife and mom that I am, and that I can do what makes me happy and not feel bad about it. Don’t allow yourself or anyone else to limit what you want in this world. I wish I could gift this trip to all of the women that I love in my life. Everyone deserves this type of experience. I highly recommend it and look forward to attending another good vibes retreat in the future!

It’s been 365 days since I participated in the Good Vibe Retreat. Every day was a new adventure - walking around topless, swimming in the pool, yoga, spending time with the BriBri tribe, honey ritual at the waterfall, massages, natal chart reading. Every night was a chance to deepen our sisterhood - dancing around the altar, bonfire release ritual and family dinners where we manifested greatness and renamed ourselves. I am Radically Reborn Rikki. The only expectation I had was to have a luxurious rich bitch relaxation experience. What I got was so. much. more. During a sister circle, I channeled the ancestors of the women. I had never experienced anything like that in my life. I was receiving messages about their eating habits (chill out on the coffee and don’t eat tofu!) and reminded them to always dance (unbeknownst to me there was a dance teacher amongst us). It also turns out that Emily, who was in her room during the circle was sick because she ate tofu at breakfast. The retreat was a mirror and forced me to look at my current life for what it was. It forced me to deal with my grief. My youngest Brother Troy passed away in 2017 due to cardiac failure. On the 3rd day of the retreat I had a massage scheduled. The masseuses name was Troy. A beautiful Black man with an Afro and southern accent. On the 4th day of the retreat, I had a massage with Anthony. Troy’s middle name was Anthony. At the time, my Mother Robin and I were estranged. There was a Mother and Daughter duo on the retreat. The daughter’s name was Rhavin. Also, on the 4th day of the trip, I had my natal chart reading with Silvia. During that reading, I had an overwhelming feeling that I should move back to Playa Negra when my lease ended 2 months later. Silvia confirmed. I sold and donated all of my belongings, told my luxury building in Brooklyn I would not renew my lease and moved back to Playa Negra with my 2 puppies Carmelo and Jett on April 26th, 2023. I had never been to Costa Rica. I had never even thought about coming to Costa Rica until the Good Vibe Retreat. I can go on and on about the magic and miracles that occurred during this retreat. Book the ticket. Just do it Sis. You won’t regret it and when you land in Playa Negra, holla at me. STILL I RISE! I love y’all.
