BLOOM
To flourish, thrive, and grow into your fullest, most vibrant self.
Looking for a day to hit pause on the chaos and just be with your girl?
To laugh, connect, and create memories that last way beyond the car ride home?
Welcome to BLOOM - a one-of-a-kind wellness retreat designed just for moms and daughters (ages 9–12). It’s your chance to step out of the daily rush and into something that feeds both of you - mind, body, and heart.
At BLOOM, you’ll explore confidence, creativity, and wellness side by side.
But more than that, you’ll walk away with inside jokes, deeper connection, and a shared sense of strength that lasts long after the day ends.
This isn’t just another event.
It’s a memory in the making.
🌸 Why BLOOM?
Because life moves fast - and the moments that matter most can get lost in the shuffle. Between school drop-offs, packed schedules, and nonstop to-do lists, it’s easy to feel disconnected from the one person you’d do anything for.
BLOOM is your invitation to slow down. To step into a day that’s just about you two - laughing, learning, creating, and reconnecting in ways that stick.
This isn’t about being the “perfect mom.”
It’s about showing up, side by side, and building something real together.
You’ll leave feeling recharged, inspired, and more connected than ever - with fresh tools and memories to carry into your everyday life.
We know that every family looks a little different.
At BLOOM, what matters most is the connection - not the title.
If a mother isn’t able to attend, daughters are warmly encouraged to bring another special person in their life - a grandmother, aunt, older sister, or close family friend. Whoever shows up with love and intention is welcome here.

The goal of BLOOM is to create a meaningful one-on-one connection between a mother (or special someone) and a daughter. I encourage moms to just bring one child. I plan to run the retreat at least twice a year so most moms are bringing their older daughter this time, and then saving a future retreat for the second or third child. That said, we can certainly accommodate more than one child if capacity allows- use the contact form at the bottom of the page to discuss.

Absolutely! If a mom isn’t able to attend, we welcome other special figures like grandmothers, aunts, or close family friends to join the retreat with the daughter.
