You’re Exhausted.
And you already know slep won't fix it.

Not just tired.
Not just “in need of a vacation.”

Exhausted in a way that its become normal.
There isn't a sleep deep enough or a weekend long enough.

You wake up already depleted.
You move through your days on autopilot.
You carry so much, but you'v learned to hide it so well.

Because you’re capable. Dependable. Reliable.
Because you’re “the strong one.”
Because you always figure it out.

But underneath it?

You’re tired of living like this.

After a 20-hour shift, I sat in my car and broke down.

Not quietly. Not gracefully.

I cried. I screamed. I asked myself,
“How did my life get to this point?”

And in that moment, I made a decision:



Not my peace.
Not my body.
Not my life.




For women physicians who are brilliant, driven…
and tired of paying for their success with their well-being.

My job will not be the death of me.

The Awakened Retreat was created from that moment.

Over Three Luxurious Nights, You’ll:

Stay in a beautiful, restful space. No pagers. No emails.

Enjoy nourishing meals crafted to restore your energy

Indulge in spa treatments with included credits, because your body earned it.

Participate in workshops and coaching focused on sustainable self-care and burnout recovery

Connect deeply with women who get what you’re going through

Ground transportation from the airport is included. You don't needed that added stress.

This isn’t a vacation. 

Let’s be clear.

This is not another trip you need to recover from.
This is not a conference where you sit, take notes, and go back to the same life.
This is not a surface-level self-care weekend.

This is a reset.

A real one.

A space where:

you are not performing
you are not holding everything together
you are not the one everyone else depends on
For once… you get to be held.

When you leave,
you won’t just feel better.
You’ll be different.

clarity on what’s been draining you

language for what you’ve been feeling 

tools to protect your energy

permission to rest without earning it

a new definition of success that doesn’t require s much self-sacrifice

and a community of women who truly understand you

Because exhaustion isn’t your identity.
It’s a signal.

You’ll leave with:

You don’t have to guess what this experience feels like.

Here’s what past attendees said:
​​Their stories speak for themselves.

Join Us At The

Awakened Retreat

You’ve done enough surviving. Now it’s time to exhale, reclaim your energy, and just be.

This is your invitation to step away from the noise, the weight, the never-ending “to-do” list, and into a sacred pause that’s long overdue.

The Awakened Retreat is a 4-day, 3-night sanctuary created specifically for women physicians of color who are tired of carrying it all — and are finally ready to lay it down.

This isn’t just another vacation where you’re still “on.”
This is an intentional pause. A deep exhale.
It’s a safe space where you don’t have to explain your exhaustion.
Where no one expects you to smile through the stress.
Where rest isn’t shamed — it’s prioritized.

What Really Matters Most

Rest Deeply

Reconnect with yourself

Community That Sees You

Not just sleep — restoration. Permission to unplug, pause, and exhale. Enjoy the kind of rest your body, mind, and spirit have been begging for

You’ve been over-functioning for everyone else. Workshops are gaurateed to help you identify what you need, where you’re overextended, and find your way back  to what matters most.

This isn’t just a getaway. It’s a gathering of women who get you. Women who are also navigating exhaustion, overextension, and a deep desire to live life on their terms. You’ll laugh, cry, and heal with women who see your worth—without you having to prove it.
You don’t have to keep pushing just because you know how.

This is your invitation to rest deeply. 
To reclaim your peace. 
To choose rest—not as a reward, 
but as your right. 

You’ve done enough surviving. Now it’s your turn to receive.

Time to invest in the woman who makes everything possible.

$5,800 (payment plans available)

What’s included:

A powerful 3-night, 4-day retreat experience in at the Miraval Spa & Resort Austin, TX

All meals, private accommodations, and sessions included

4 weeks of continued community support— a private space for continued support, connection, and collective care

Bonus group coaching call to help integrate what you’ve gained into your daily life, so your transformation doesn’t stop when the retreat ends

You've spent many years and a lot of money investing in your career.

Because your healing shouldn't have to wait for perfect timing

Space is intentionally limited.

This isn’t a conference.
This is not a hotel ballroom.
It’s a sacred, restorative sanctuary.
And that means seats are very limited—and they will go.

Your Comfort Guarantee

We don’t offer refunds—because we know the value of this experience. But what we do guarantee is this:

You will be seen.
You will be honored.
You will be supported—before, during, and after your time with us.

This isn’t just time away.
It’s your return to self.

You’ll keep waking up already tired,
dreading the day before it even begins.
You’ll keep showing up for everyone and carrying the weight of everything— because you’re the strong one, right?
You’ll keep wondering how much longer you can keep going like this.
And one day, the body will say no more—and you won’t get to choose the terms of your rest.
Because the exhaustion doesn’t just go away. It grows quietly until it you crash and burn.
You know the truth:
You’ve already sacrificed so much—
In sleepless nights.
In missed joy.
In extra shifts and endless to-do lists.
In energy spent holding it all together when no one’s holding you.
And let’s be honest—
Trying to heal in isolation?
It’s exhausting. Confusing. Slower than it has to be.
It’s the most expensive way to do this work.
You don’t have to wait for the breakdown to make a breakthrough.
This retreat is a pattern interrupt—a moment to pause before life makes you.

If nothing changes… nothing changes. You already know how this goes.

A chance to get intentional—so your life is directed by your priorities, not hijacked by everyone else’s.

Protect your peace before it’s too late.
Choose rest now—on your own terms.

Or you could say yes to a space that sees you.

You could spend twice as much on a luxury retreat that looks good on Instagram—but wasn’t created with you in mind.

You could book another vacation where you come home just as tired as when you left.

You could invest in another conference…and still feel unseen.

One that honors your exhaustion.

A retreat intentionally crafted by a Black woman physician—for Black women physicians.

Holds space for your healing.

And equips you with real tools, real rest, and a real community who gets it.

This isn’t a quick escape. It’s a soft landing.
A awakening. An exhale.
A decision to invest in something that pours back into you.

Your Questions. Answered.

It breaks my heart that so many women of color—especially physicians—have been taught to sacrifice themselves in order to keep their success. That we believe exhaustion is just part of the job… just part of being strong…

This is deeper than rest. 

It breaks my heart that we’ve been taught to measure our worth by how productive we are, how much we give, and how little we need.

And it really breaks my heart that we carry guilt and shame just for wanting to rest. Just for daring to say: “I deserve more than survival.”

I created what I needed—but couldn’t find. When I was at my lowest—crying in my car, fantasizing about getting into an accident just so I could finally rest—I realized no one was coming to save me. They were going to keep taking as long as I kept giving.

I went looking for support, hoping for an answer. But what I found instead was the truth: there is no one-size-fits-all solution. There is only your agency—your ability to choose something different.

This retreat is that choice.

This retreat is that choice.

So you don’t have to keep pretending exhaustion is just your baseline.

So you can remember what you truly want… and start building a life that honors you—not just your obligations.

Because you are not a cog in a machine. You are not here to sacrifice yourself for a broken system.
You are here to build a life that feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside.

You are here to lead a legacy not of burnout and burden—but of joy, balance, peace, and freedom.

You deserve it and you don’t have to figure it out alone.

Physician. Coach. Community Builder

Meet Dr. Nikia Smith

And a woman who knows exactly what it feels like to look successful on paper while silently unraveling inside.

For years, Dr. Nikia Smith wore the title of physician like armor—pushing through exhaustion, silencing her own needs, and convincing herself that suffering was just part of the job. That breaking point in her car—the moment she whispered, “This can’t be the rest of my life.”—became the turning point.

She’s since rebuilt her life from the inside out—reclaiming her joy, her voice, and her sense of self. She chose healing over hustle and redefined what success could look and feel like on her own terms.

Along the way, she developed the transformative RECLAIM frameworks– to guide other women through the same journey of releasing survival mode and hustle culture to step into something softer, stronger, and more sustainable.

Her work isn’t about burning it all down—it’s about helping women redesign what no longer works, remodel what they keep, and reimagine what a meaningful, easeful life can look like. This isn’t just burnout recovery—it’s the blueprint for a life you don’t need to escape from.
