Designed exclusively for women in medicine, this intimate retreat offers a sanctuary to decompress, reconnect with yourself, and cultivate sustainable well-being-so you can thrive both personally and professionally.

A Transformational Retreat for Women Physicians
As a dedicated physician, you give your all to your patients, but when was the last time you prioritized yourself?  The Redefining Joy in Medicine retreat is your invitation to pause, reset, and reignite your passion for both medicine and life. A maximum of 12 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ will be available.

About the Retreat

"The Women Physicians Wellness Retreat is more than just time off. It’s a protected space to realign with your purpose, release the overwhelm, and return to medicine - and life—with renewed clarity and joy. You’ll experience curated coaching sessions, EMDR-inspired healing, restorative wellness practices, and meaningful connection with women who truly get it, all in a luxurious, all-inclusive setting tailored for the physician experience.

This retreat recognizes the trauma many of us have endured in medical education, training and possibly even in your day to day life.  Trauma may have resulted not just from isolated events, but from the chronic stress, moral injury, and self-sacrifice that have become ingrained in our medical culture and profession. We were taught to suppress our needs, power through exhaustion, and keep going even when we were depleted. But that way of being eventually erodes our sense of self.

That’s why this retreat is intentionally trauma-informed: to offer a safe, compassionate space where true healing can begin. Where you can finally exhale, reconnect with your inner truth, and start to unlearn the conditioning that has been ingrained in our medical culture.  

You deserve to feel whole again. And you don’t have to do it alone."
