I met Takeyah Young about two years ago, at a friend’s going away party. You may know her on Twitter as @coreconnection, but in person, she is warm, calm and passionate about living a meaningful life and helping other women do the same. About a year later, I was able to tap into Takeyah’s wisdom for my Side Hustle Boot Camp program, where she shared her journey to becoming a wellness coach and the challenges involved with being an entrepreneur and still maintaining a healthy lifestyle. I’m so happy we’ve been able to keep in touch and if I wasn’t working with a client in DC the first weekend in October, Takeyah’s yoga and wellness retreat in Jamaica is exactly where I would be!

I’ve never been to a wellness retreat before, but it’s on my list of things to begin doing each year as a way to get realigned with my mind, body and spirit. Since I am not available to go this year, I’m hoping that some of YOU can! If you’re free this October 4-8, I highly recommend making plans to join Takeyah and her crew of happy black women to get your yoga and healthy lifestyle on. I love that they’ll be doing this in Jamaica, which is one of my favorite places in the whole world. I’ve visited Jamaica three times now, and every time I go, I am able to slow down and renew my sense of well-being.

This may just be the sign you’ve been waiting for to reset your life in a major way.
