THE ART OF RECEIVING RETREAT
A Homecoming for Women Who Forgot They Had Wings
PHUKET, THAILAND | APRIL 9-14, 2026
Come Rest, Rise and Receive
ABOUT THE RETREAT
At The Art of Receiving Retreat, you won’t hustle, host, plan, or pour out.
You’ll rest like you’ve already earned it — because you have.
This is your homecoming. A sacred pause for the woman who’s carried it all.
Every towel is folded for you. Every meal brought to your table. Every moment asks nothing in return.
You’re here to remember what it feels like to be nurtured without guilt, celebrated without condition, and cherished without obligation.
To reclaim the wings you forgot you had.
Come receive beauty, care, and softness in a way you’ve never allowed yourself to before.
This retreat isn’t about escape — it’s about embodiment.
Where presence replaces pressure. Where joy is your portion. Where rest becomes your new normal.
Each day invites you deeper into the art of unlearning:
– Unlearning self-sacrifice as a standard
– Unlearning “earning” as a requirement
– Unlearning the belief that care is only for others
This is not where you check out — this is where you finally check in.

SANCTUARY FOR REST
Your home away from home is a luxurious, private cliffside villa perched on Thailand's Millionaire's Mile - a sacred haven known as "Where Eagle's Rest."
Fully staffed with private chefs and butlers, this is a place designed for your restoration. Here you'll experience what it means to be cared for without asking, held without earning and cherished without condition.
Come pause. Come receive. Come rest - without lifting a finger
"But those who trust in the LORD will find new strength. They will soar on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint."
Isaiah 40:31
DAY 1
ARRIVAL & SOFT LANDING:
YOU BELONG HERE
Arrive and settle in with ease — no schedules to manage, no responsibilities to juggle. From the moment you land, everything is handled for you so you can begin to unwind. A welcoming ritual and dinner help you transition from everyday life to a space designed for rest and care.
DAY 2
RELEASING THE WEIGHT YOU CARRY:
SURRENDERING THE SUPERWOMAN
This is your day to take off the “strong one” role and acknowledge how much you’ve been holding. Gentle movement, reflection, and massage help release tension and stress. In an honest group session, we’ll talk about the hidden cost of constantly showing up for others. The day ends with a beautifully curated dinner and connection.
DAY 3
RECEING IN FULL BLOOM:
RECEIVING AS A LIFESTYLE
You’ll practice letting others take care of you — starting with a beautiful breakfast served poolside. A conversation about how to accept help without guilt sets the tone for the day. Take part in The Receiving Table Dining Experience where your only job is to enjoy. The evening closes with time to relax or take in the sunset on the water.
DAY 4
MIRROR OF BEAUTY:
SHE WHO IS WORTHY
A morning affirmation session invites you to reconnect with how you see yourself. We’ll shift the focus back to how you see yourself, not how others expect you to show up. Through personal styling and a photo experience, you’ll explore what it means to be seen and valued as you are. The rest of the day offers space to recharge at your own pace - with spa treatments, personal reflection or relaxation time at the villa. A sensory dinner experience under the stars offers a beautiful close to the day.
DAY 5
RECLAMATION & RADIANCE:
I WILL NO LONGER SHRINK TO BE CHOSEN
You’ll take time to reflect on what you want to carry forward — and what you’re ready to leave behind. In a closing circle, we’ll talk about how to receive support and joy in everyday life. We’ll wrap with a celebratory breakfast, photos, and a personal keepsake to mark your experience.
DAY 6
DEPARTURES WITH INTENTION
Your final morning includes breakfast before private transfers to the airport. You'll leave with an affirmation to carry home - a reminder that receiving is a gift you can continue to embrace in your daily life.

FAQs
We want every part of your retreat experience to feel effortless. Here are answers to some common questions, as you consider joining us.
Why is this retreat in Thailand? Why go so far?
Sometimes the best way to fully reset is to step far enough away from your daily roles and routines that your nervous system can finally relax. Thailand was chosen because it offers not only beauty and luxury, but also distance — both physical and mental — from the demands of everyday life. The long flight is part of the transition; when you arrive, you’ll feel worlds away and ready to fully receive.
Is this retreat packed with activities? I’m looking for rest, not a full schedule.
This is not a retreat where you’ll be busy all day. The itinerary is designed with plenty of spaciousness — time for rest, spa treatments, unstructured villa lounging, and personal reflection. A few curated experiences and optional conversations will complement your time, but the priority is allowing you to rest and be cared for.
Will I be traveling alone? Will I feel out of place if I come solo?
Many guests attend this retreat solo. In fact, this experience is designed to support women in receiving for themselves — whether with friends or on their own. You will be warmly welcomed into a supportive and caring environment, with space for connection and space for personal time. You’ll never feel pressured to “keep up” or “fit in.” We offer roommate matching for individuals traveling alone that would like a roommate.
If I'm attending solo and choose a double occupancy room, how will my roommate be selected?
Many of our guests attend solo, and roommate matching is handled with care. Prior to the retreat, you'll complete a short guest performance form where you can share sleep habits, preferences and other helpful details. We will thoughtfully match solo travelers in shared rooms to ensure a comfortable and positive experience. If you would prefer a private room, single occupancy is also available.
Will I need to tip the villa staff during the retreat?
No. All staff gratuities are included in your package — no tipping required. You are here to relax and receive without thinking about what’s expected. Everything has been arranged so you can simply enjoy the experience.
Is airfare included?
No, airfare is not included. You are responsible for booking your own flight to Thailand. Private airport transfers to and from the villa are included once you arrive in-country
What happens if I have dietary restrictions?
Our private chef is happy to accommodate dietary needs with advance notice. You’ll be asked to share any restrictions or allergies prior to the retreat, and we will ensure your meals are prepared accordingly.
Is this retreat about doing deep healing work?
While the experience may feel deeply nourishing and healing, this is not a therapy-based or intensive healing retreat. It is about allowing yourself to receive care, rest, and beauty — without guilt or performance. Reflection and gentle conversation are offered, but the heart of this retreat is about learning to receive support and ease in your body and daily life.
