You don’t need another checklist disguised as self-care.

​​​​​​​You don’t need another room where you have to earn your place, lead the conversation, or shrink to be accepted.


You’ve done that enough.

 ​​​​​​​Just Be: The Soft Power Retreat is not a spa escape.​​​​​​​​
It’s not a curated getaway for staged photos and surface-level healing.
​​​​​​It’s not a business trip in disguise—and it’s not a reward for doing more.
This retreat was created for the woman who’s built the life, the brand, the legacy— but deep down, is quietly asking:
"Where do I go to be poured into without performing?"
It’s for the woman who feels the shift coming… but needs space to hear what God is saying. It’s for the woman who’s tired of being strong every damn day, and is ready to remember what softness feels like. It’s for the woman who’s ready to stop striving and start surrendering without losing her power.​​​​​​​

It’s for the woman who’s checked every box, carried every load, and is quietly wondering—“Is this all there is?”
​​​​​​​
👉🏽 The one whose nervous system is tired.
👉🏾 Whose spirit is overstretched.
👉🏿 Whose heart is hungry for sisterhood, silence, and sacred clarity.
​​​​​​​

This is not a reward for doing more.
​​​​​​​This is your permission to Just Be.
Over six sacred days in the lush heart of Costa Rica, you’ll be gu ided to:


  • Release what’s been silently draining you.
  • Reclaim your voice, boundaries, and joy.
  • Reconnect with your body, calling, and your God.
  • Rise in your softness, not in your stress.

This is a soul-deep, luxury experience rooted in rest, truth, and transformation.

You’ll be surrounded by women who don’t need your résumé, only your realness.

And led by guides who know what it means to live at the intersection of high capacity and deep surrender.

This is not about doing more.
It’s about finally learning how to just be.
Rest is Not the Retreat.
Rest is the Return!

Discover Your Return
 

 Why Costa Rica? 

This isn’t just about the destination. It’s about the energy you need to return to yourself. Costa Rica was chosen with intention because the land holds a sacred rhythm that softens even the strongest woman.
​​​​​​​Here, the jungle doesn’t rush you.
The mountains don’t judge you.
The breeze doesn’t ask you to lead, fix, or perform.
The jungle asks you to use a part of yourself you may have forgotten… and in doing so, it stirs a strength you may have forgotten beneath the grind. You’ll breathe deeper. Listen closer. And finally exhale what you’ve been carrying.
It’s What You’ve Needed But Couldn’t Name...✨

Just Be” Soft Power Retreat is not about becoming someone new. It’s about shedding what you were never meant to carry and finally coming home to yourself.

At this retreat, you’ll:
​​​​​​​

✨ Connect with how to lead without over-functioning
✨ Learn to Love without losing yourself
✨ Feel what it’s like to be Fully Seen, without performing
✨ Strengthen your Voice, your Boundaries, and your Clarity in what’s next
✨ Rest—not as a reward, but as a Return to your rhythm
Curious if this is for you?

Schedule a Private Conversation
 ✨ A DAY IN THE LIFE AT JUST BE  
Every moment is curated to restore your rhythm, not control it. There’s no rush here. No pressure to perform. Just sacred space to soften, release, and rise at your pace.
 🌞 MORNING: STILLNESS + SOUL  
You wake to birdsong and a warm breeze, no alarms, just stillness. Then you gather with your sisters for a nourishing breakfast and soul-stirring session, reflection, or coaching with Crystal & Dr. Nicole. You begin your day grounded, centered, and fully with yourself.
 ​​​​​​​ 🕊 MIDDAY: REST + RECONNECTION   
Midday is yours. Take a nap. Walk the jungle path. Swim beneath the waterfall.
Enjoy a long, laughter-filled lunch prepared with intention and love. Here, rest isn’t earned. It’s expected.
 🔥 AFTERNOON: UNMASKING + BREAKTHROUGHS  
In the afternoon, you enter sacred space: You’ll start to speak the truth you’ve never had space to say and realize how much strength there is in softness.
 ✨ EVENING: RITUAL + RESTORATION  
As the sun sets over the jungle, you gather again for candlelit dinners. You’ll laugh.
You’ll cry. You’ll breathe easier. And you’ll feel more you than you have in years.

How will the “Just Be” Soft Power Retreat support my rise?

This isn’t just a retreat—it’s a sacred recalibration for the woman who’s done it all and is now choosing to receive in a new way.

You’re not coming to escape life—you’re coming to live it more aligned, more anchored, and more whole. And because this kind of shift deserves spacious support, we’ve designed a Signature Three-Phase Soul Integration Journey to guide you—before, during, and well beyond your time at Just Be “Soft Power”
​​​​​​​🌱 BEFORE YOU ARRIVE: A Sacred Pause to Prepare Your Spirit
 
Your transformation begins the moment you say “Yes.”

To help you soften into the experience before you even pack your bags, you’ll receive a Pre-Retreat Soul Prep Kit designed to ease the transition from doing to being. Inside, you’ll find:


  • Guided meditations to center your mind and awaken your spirit
  • Reflective journal prompts to uncover what you’re ready to release—and what you're ready to reclaim
  • Intention-setting to align your vision with God’s divine blueprint
  • A private welcome circle to meet your sisters and step into sacred community​​​​​​​

But more than tools, you’ll receive time and space to prepare your spirit. By the time you land in Costa Rica, you won’t feel like a guest. You’ll arrive as a woman already in motion—returning to herself, ready to be seen, heard, and supported.
🌿 AT IMILOA: Your Soft Power Immersion
This isn’t about hustle, performance, or pretending to have it all together. Just space—sacred, intentional space—to release what’s been weighing on you and rise in what’s been waiting for you.
​​​​​​​
  • Morning sessions to quiet the noise and anchor you in and on purpose
  • Grounding practices to reconnect your body and spirit in stillness, peace, and presence
  • Sacred sisterhood circles that hold space for your full truth—tears, laughter, clarity, and release
  • Maskless Living™ conversations to help you unlearn survival patterns, restore emotional safety, and reclaim your voice
  • Nature walks, joy breaks, nourishing meals, naps, and luxury jungle stillness—because care is no longer optional, it’s required

You’ll be guided by Crystal and Dr. Nicole, and surrounded by women who can hold what you’ve never had space to share - You’ll just have to be.
🌺 WHEN YOU RETURN HOME: Embodying the Shift
 The retreat may end—but your journey doesn’t. To support your integration and continued growth, you’ll receive:​​​​
  • Access to our monthly YUMMY (Your UltimateMost Meaningful Yet)  Mastermind — a curated space designed for reconnection, reflection, and staying anchored in your softness.
 
  • Following the retreat, you may be invited to continue your transformation—either through private executive coaching or by entering the exclusive Sister Diamonds Collective, our sacred space for women called to lead, heal, and rise even deeper.
Whether you choose to stay connected or simply take what you received and breathe it into your daily life, know this:

You will not leave the way you came.
​​​​​​​And you won’t walk this path alone.
This journey isn’t about fixing who you’ve been—
it’s about
becoming who you were always meant to be!

With sacred support before, during, and beyond the retreat, you’ll return home grounded, clear, and connected— ready to live, lead, and love from your deepest truth.

A Culinary Experience That Feeds More Than Your Body...

...sunrise sips overlooking the jungle, long lunches layered with laughter, dinners infused with warmth, wisdom, and soul—this is how we dine at Imiloa.

Imagine starting your day with a vibrant smoothie bowl topped with fresh tropical fruit, followed by a breakfast shared in sacred silence or joyful connection. Midday, gather for a nourishing lunch prepared with love by world-class chefs—each plate a fusion of healing and heritage, drawn from Costa Rica’s rich soil and sun.

At Imiloa, food is more than fuel—it’s a ritual. Every meal is plant-based, organic, locally sourced, and crafted to honor both your health and your pleasure. Served in open-air spaces with the sounds of the rainforest all around you, each bite becomes a sacred pause—an invitation to return to your body, your joy, and your breath.

And in the spirit of Soft Power, your nourishment is never rushed. Whether you’re savoring a peaceful moment alone or gathered around the table with your sisters, dining becomes a practice in presence. It becomes part of your healing—softening what’s tense, fueling what’s true, and awakening what’s been quiet for far too long.

You’ll taste roasted vegetables kissed by fire, rich sauces made from local herbs, and decadent vegan desserts that remind you joy can be both sweet and sacred. You’ll smell spices rising with steam, feel your nervous system settle as you’re served with care, and witness food become a form of love—a living expression of restoration and reverence.

At Imiloa, every table is set with intention. Every dish tells a story.
And each meal is a return to yourself—whole, worthy, and well.

Where do I fly into in Costa Rica?

San Jose (Juan Santamaria) International Airport. The airport code is “SJO.”  You will want to fly in by 7am on June 26, 2026 as we will board a private jet around 9am on 26th. If that requires you to fly in the day before, we can happily provide some options near SJO airport to make it easier for you to get to the airport on time. We also suggest you book your return flight for after 1pm on July 1st AND require you to purchase travel insurance for the unlikely event you can no longer attend.

We’ll take a private jet service and ground transportation from SJO Airport to the Imiloa Institute. This is included in your retreat experience and just for our group.

If you choose not to fly on the charter plane and/or prefer to take ground transportation to IMILOA, you may do so at your own expense.

What happens if I miss the flight to Imiloa?

The flight is privately chartered so if someone is delayed we will use direct contact to determine whether the private flight is able to wait or if we will have to set up alternative transportation. This would depend on the situation and how much of a delay there is.
