I want my child to remember how happy I was. How peaceful. I want them to say, “My mom was a self-care queen”. I want my child to know that she is worthy of rest and to never compromise her needs.

💛 A gentle good morning on this Friday.

We love pomp and circumstance over here… 🥂😌Black women in luxury makes my heart full. Seeing my sisters living the brings me real joy…but our mission is deeper than that…

While we love the bold fashion, the 5 star vacations, the decadent brunches—what Taking Space really offers is transformation in the lives of those we work with. We want to inspire positive change in the lives of every woman we encounter.

Self-care does not cure burn out. Only changed behavior— setting boundaries, speaking up for your needs, aligning your values, challenging negative self-talk, changing your environment— real action is needed for real change. And we want to support you and give you the tools to create lasting change.

So yes, we will be brunching! 🥂🍾 But we will be growing together, too. 😌 We will be ascending to the next level, get ready for this crazy ride. Taking Space is building a community of women that are sick and tired of feeling burnt out, unappreciated, and people pleasing— women who are ready to take up space. You are a priority, boo. 😘 Don’t forget it.

But… I mean… we still bout to sip champagne on a rooftop overlooking the ocean… 😉 soo yeah. Pull Up!

Let’s meet up, sis 👸🏾September 24th- Laguna Beach, Ca. See you there!

Hey ya’ll the holiday season is usually a blur for me! It’s so important to prioritize your mental health during this time.

Back to back events, the holiday rush, financial stress, family conflict, less sunlight, pressure to finish the year strong💪🏾 — No wonder this can be a hard time for some.

Work hard, but rest hard too.

Taking Space will be taking a break for the holidays— we might pop in from time to time- but we ain’t working for real 🙃

How are you all spending your December?

Taking Space Retreats is committed to catering to the unique needs of the BIPOC community. We organize events that are fun, restful and identity affirming. Individuals leave feeling seen and understood.

Why do Black and brown individuals need things to be catered to them?

Inequality is ingrained into our society. Many Black employees and business owners experience lower wages, disenfranchisement and lack of administrative support in their chosen fields. Black employees experience discrimination and micro aggressions repeatedly, while their reality is minimized or denied by many.

We may not be able to solve all these problems, but we can create protective measures to reduce the harm and limit trauma exposure from nonstop stress in the workplace.

Welcome to Taking Space Retreats.
Who are we?

We host and curate retreats, events and experiences catered to black professionals. Our events will help you feel rested and renewed so you can fight burnout and be your best self.

Through experience, training and research, we’ve learned that the cure to burn out is not self-care alone. Creating distance from your stressors elevates your self-care to the next level. Our events allow you to mentally, emotionally and physically create space from work and other stressors, so you can focus on you. In a world that asks black professionals to shrink and be invisible, we challenge you to take up space.

Joined us at our inaugural event:
Wellness Sundays: Wine Down in the Vineyard

Overwhelmed, burnt out, tired of feeling unappreciated… Here I was- a mother, a wife, a mental health professional- doing everything and being everything for everyone else— but what about me? Did my desires matter? Were my needs a priority? I realized I had to prioritize myself if anything would ever change. I invited my best friends to join me. Other dynamic women who had careers, families, their own struggles and responsibilities. Other amazing women who were also tired of being on the bottom of the to-do list. And together we are starting a movement. Our needs matter. And we will no longer accept the narrative that women should nurture everything around them except themselves. Taking Space curates events and experiences for women who are tired of feeling burnt out and ready to create the positive change they deserve. What started out as a simple Sunday brunch, is becoming a movement, better than I imagined. Join us. Let’s change the narrative together. You deserve to take up space.

When you're trying to do better, it can feel like everything is working against you. Sometimes you literally need to yell at your negative thoughts, "GET OUT!" Seriously though... Stopping negative thoughts starts with challenging them. Automatic thought stopping is a crucial technique in (cognitive behavioral therapy) CBT as it interrupts negative thought patterns, providing a moment to challenge and reframe them. This process empowers individuals to regain control over their thinking, leading to improved emotional well-being and healthier behaviors. By breaking the cycle of automatic negative thoughts, it helps foster more positive and constructive thinking patterns. Working with a therapist or CBT expert may be benecial if you suffer from frequent intrusive, negative thinking. Stay consistent and you'll be saying goodbye to those unhelpful habits once and for all. At Taking Space Retreats, we believe that every woman deserves to take up space - in the world, in her relationships, and in her own life.

Carnival Radiance- Day 4 in Ensenada, Mexico Ensenada is a town in Baja California, Mexico. This is a common cruise port, but this city has so much to offer. I've been to Ensenada many times and every time we find something new to do. This is the first time I've gone with a child, and we still had a great time! We took a city tour as well as a tequila experience through Carnival, but this is also available as a walk in your if you didn't purchase your admission on the ship. Overall, taking a cruise as a family was a great way to spend time together without breaking the bank! Taking Spaces curates events and retreats to help women recover from burnout and prioritize self-care, ideally without the kids, but we do know that’s not always an option. We partnered with our sister company @loveandwahala to showcase how family trips can be just as fun and rewarding. Would you visit Ensenada, Mexico with your family? #carnivalcruise #carnivalradiance #familytime #family #travelwithkids #vacationwithkids #selfcare #ensenada

Self-care isn’t selfish, it’s necessary! Here are 3 tips to boost your mental health: 1. Prioritize sleep - aim for 7-9 hours a night to improve mood and concentration. 2. Practice mindfulness - take a few minutes each day to focus on your breath and reduce stress. 3. Connect with others - spending time with friends and family can help you feel supported and improve your overall well-being. #mentalhealthawareness #selfcare #womenempowerment #blackwomenhealing #blackmentalhealth #mentalhealthawarenessmonth
