unmaskedLadies’ Retreat
Feb 5-8, 2026
A soul‑nourishing, faith‑centered weekend designed for the woman who leads, serves—and now yearns to exhale, rest, and be seen.
HealThis is where your heart catches up to your strength. You’ll have space to feel what you’ve been pushing down—without judgment, without needing to explain. You’ll start to untangle the pain you’ve been carrying quietly for too long. And leave feeling lighter. Seen. Emotionally safe.
GrowOnce you’ve exhaled the pain, you’ll reconnect to the woman underneath all the roles, labels, and expectations. You’ll have honest conversations that stir something deep—vision, clarity, direction. You’ll start to hear yourself again. You’ll remember what it feels like to dream, to hope without fear. You’ll reconnect with God, with purpose.
ReleaseThis is where you stop carrying what was never yours to hold. Old stories. Silent guilt. Shame. Self-doubt. The pressure to always be okay. You’ll let it go - in sacred reflection, in stillness. And when you do, you’ll feel it: freedom. You’ll step into 2026 feeling clear, grounded, and spiritually prepared for what’s next.
who is this for?This retreat was created for…
The woman…
Who’s strong in her faith, but weary in her soul.
Who leads others, but is secretly longing to rest.
Who craves a sacred space to exhale, be still, and be seen—without needing to explain herself.
Because truthfully?
You shouldn’t have to do this alone…
UNMASKED is where you finally get to lay it all down. The burden. The pressure. The performance. And come home to the woman God always saw—whole, worthy, and deeply loved.
This is the UNMASKED Women’s Retreat was created…
Because sometimes the strong friend needs space to fall apart.
Because the “you got this” woman deserves a place where she is held.
Because Black Christian women carry so much—and rarely get to set it down.
The UNMASKED Women’s Retreat is a soul-nourishing, faith-centered experience designed for women like you. Women who are ambitious and called, yet tired of performing. Women who are ready to let go of the titles, the roles, and the silent pressure to always be okay.
This is your space to breathe.
To be poured into emotionally, spiritually, and relationally.
To release what’s heavy and reconnect with what’s holy.
This isn’t just a retreat. It’s a carefully curated space for deep healing, soul-rest, and sacred connection—crafted with you in mind. Every part of this weekend has been intentionally designed to help you come home to yourself and to God, without distractions, pressure, or performance.

Hello, I am KaaraYour Trusted Guide
“I’m Kaara. I’m a licensed therapist, specializing in trauma and relationship issues, and the creator of the UNMASKED Women’s Retreat. But more than that, I’m a woman who knows what it feels like to carry a lot—to be strong for everyone else while secretly longing for rest, healing, and a safe place to just be.
For over a decade, I’ve had the honor of walking with women through heartbreak, transitions, and deep emotional healing. My heart beats for creating spaces where women can lay down the weight, be seen without performing, and reconnect with the woman God always saw—whole, worthy, and deeply loved.
This isn’t just a retreat—it’s sacred space to come home to yourself.
Community
At the heart of this vision is community—because some healing just can’t happen in isolation. We believe that when women gather in truth, love, and faith… chains break. Wounds mend. And generational stories start to change.
Women are not only restored—but rooted in sisterhood. This is where where the brokenhearted are made whole, where beauty rises from ashes, and where no woman walks her healing journey alone.
Healing
At UNMASKED, you’ll have uninterrupted time to go beneath the surface—and access a deeper level of healing and create real, lasting transformation.
This kind of immersive space creates room for deep emotional and spiritual breakthroughs—the kind that might take months in a traditional therapy setting. With safety, support, and Spirit-led guidance, you’ll do soul work that’s hard to access in the busyness of everyday life.
You’ve been showing up for everyone else… but when was the last time you truly showed up for you?
Between work, kids, ministry, family obligations—and trying to hold it together in a world that often doesn’t see all of who you are—it’s easy to lose yourself.
You pray. You push through. You lead. But beneath the strength, there’s a quiet exhaustion.
There’s the version of you who’s smiling in photos…
and the version that cries in silence, wondering:
“Is anyone really seeing me?”

You get to breakdown hard topics in a safe environment. You are not alone in your thoughts and feelings, but you can create an island or a bridge. They help you build a bridge. How would you describe catching lightening in a bottle? You can’t right?! You know what you’ve experienced. You know that it’s great, but it’s hard to describe it to someone else. This Intensive is like that. You just have to experience it to know what it feels like to catch lightening in a bottle. What a beautiful gift to give yourself!

Their stories of resilience and self-discovery were deeply inspiring. The atmosphere was warm and supportive, creating a strong sense of community.
