Retreat Experience Testimonals

“My Solstice Rising retreat experience was truly magical, and completely seamless.
The locations were perfect: one right on the beach and the other tucked into the jungle, creating such a unique and beautifully balanced experience. The group brought together was incredible: the attendees, the teachers, and everyone involved. A++. The schedule was thoughtful and well-paced
Most importantly, Jessica, you are an amazing leader and absolutely meant to do this.
You created something really special here.”

“The Solstice Rising retreat was just spectacular. So much love and attention went into every detail.
I feel Jess went above and beyond to make the ladies feel comfortable and at ease.
I was definitely nervous to attend, but I’m so happy I did. I was probably the most out of shape but I was able to do what felt comfortable to me and simply relax whenever I chose, which was a perfect balance.
Thank you to all the ladies, who are now my new friends.”

"I had the privilege of joining Jessica's retreat as the photographer and drone operator, and it was such a special experience. Being behind the camera allowed me to witness so many genuine moments of joy, connection, and personal growth.
Jessica has a wonderful gift for making everyone feel comfortable while gently encouraging them to step outside their comfort zone. She motivates her clients to not be afraid of trying new things, whether that's yoga, snorkeling with sharks, or simply believing in themselves. Her positive energy is contagious, and she creates a safe, supportive space where everyone can grow at their own pace.
Thank you, Jessica, for letting me be part of this beautiful journey.
It was an honor and so much fun to capture these unforgettable memories."

“Jess organized an unforgettable retreat to Honduras!
We started with a stay on the island of Roatan in a stunning waterfront home featuring water views, beautiful nightly sunsets, and easy access to dozens of restaurants.
Every detail was expertly handled by Jess.
Jess made sure everything was handled, guiding us on transportation and activities. We loved reconnecting mind and body in this magical place where we enjoyed hiking, river-rafting and just existing amid the breathtaking wildlife and nature you really have to see to believe.
This trip was the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure.
We’re looking forward to having Jess plan our next Central American retreat experience!”

“Jessica shared the magic of Roatan and put together an experience that highlighted all the island had to offer.
We not only experienced the beauty of this barrier reef oasis but also were immersed in the culture and history. We fell in love with the laid back nature of the island people and the way we were treated by everyone we encountered.
Snorkeling, deep sea fishing, the mangrove tour , the beaches , and the cultural tour made it a memorable experience.
Jessica’s restaurant recommendations and her attention to every aspect of our trip was remarkable.
We hope to return and often think of the special retreat Jessica created for us.”

“If you’re thinking about a retreat that hits every note, from adventure to relaxation, luxury to local flavor, take it from us: The Solstice Rising retreat locations in Roatan and Rio Cangrejal are absolute gems.
Falling asleep to the sound of the river and waking up to toucans and misty mountains? Unreal.
A huge shoutout and heartfelt thank-you to Jessica, who planned and organized this incredible retreat. Every detail, from the stays to the adventures to the downtime, was perfectly tailored and seamless. Noneof this would’ve happened without her!
We came home sun-kissed, adrenaline-filled, and already planning our return. If you’re considering this retreat, stop thinking. Go. You’ll thank us later.”

“Jessica introduced us to the wonderful world of Roatan and Rio Cangrejal before our retreat in January 2025.
Having spent so much time in the area, Jess is the ideal guide. From start to finish, she provided excellent guidance, expansive ideas, and genuine enthusiasm.
Jessica took care of all the details, from accommodations, to dining options, to varied tours and excursions. She listened to what we were looking for, added her expertise and devised a fabulous adventure we will never forget. Jessica ensured that our trip included both the fun, lively, island life in the West End, as well as the idyllic, natural, adventurous life at Omega in Rio Cangrejal.
I would highly recommend the Solstice Rising retreat experience.”
