These women said yes to the journey: here’s what they experienced
“I arrived at Jaleesah's retreat with an open heart and mind, carrying emotions I couldn’t yet understand - and I left filled with joy, connection, and inspiration.
It was truly a healing week in so many ways, where I was able to connect my body with my mind, feel discomfort transform into confidence, and begin to see it as something empowering.
The retreat was a perfect blend of moments for reflection, learning, and joy. Overall, it really changed the perspective I had - not only of myself, but also of how I now view womanhood.”

“Jaleesah held such a special space for us during our retreat with her. She is kind, fun, and made us all feel welcome. She integrated us into the island by taking us to many places and designing an itinerary that allowed us to participate in the local culture. The variety of activities we did during the retreat was great, and by the end, we were all truly in our element together. I definitely came out of the retreat feeling lighter than when I went in and was able to incorporate what I experienced into my life back home.
Overall, if you’re looking for a container where you can embrace your femininity, creativity, and joy, I would highly recommend Jaleesah’s retreat."

As a mother, I have always been there for my family and my partner, often putting myself last and losing sight of who I was in the process. For years, I dreamed of going on a solo trip, but I never knew where to go, until a friend sent me Jaleesah’s TikTok. Something about it immediately resonated with me, and I decided to take the leap and join her retreat in Siquijor.
I can honestly say I have not regretted that decision for a single moment.
From the very first day, I was welcomed with so much warmth and genuine care. Jaleesah has a rare gift: she makes you feel completely safe and accepted, exactly as you are. Before arriving at the retreat, I felt disconnected from myself. I didn’t really know who I was anymore outside of being a mother and a partner.
During the retreat, something shifted. I reconnected with myself. I rediscovered my strength. I found clarity. And after returning home, I have been able to make decisions from a place of confidence and self-worth: decisions I am still incredibly proud of today.
I have already recommended this retreat to 3 of my friends! I will absolutely be back: this time with my girlfriends.
If you are hesitating, wondering whether you should choose yourself for once: this is your sign! It might just change your life, the way it changed mine.

“My retreat experience with Jaleesah was so special. I met so many beautiful souls who were each in such a transformative stage of their lives, which made the whole experience feel even more meaningful.
As a solo traveler, it was so comforting to have each day thoughtfully planned, and to share every meal with such a lovely group of women. There was a real sense of connection, support, and openness throughout the retreat.
I came home feeling completely refreshed and radiant, with the clarity and encouragement I needed to make some big changes in my life. I would wholeheartedly recommend this experience to every woman.”
