Journey to Self: Jamaica was created to offer women intentional time away from the noise of everyday life, a chance to reconnect with themselves through movement, reflection, meaningful conversation, adventure, and rest.
Over four days in Montego Bay, we’ll gather in community while creating room for personal clarity and renewal.
This experience includes:
Villa stay with spacious shared living, dining and kitchen area, and lovely patios. Each participant will receive a private room, with private bathroom.
Yoga led by Victoria Milam, Founder of Women Up Foundation
Pilates led by Kelsey Birmingham, Founder of OTK Pilates
Guided reflection sessions
Group connection experiences
Authentic Jamaican meals
Time for rest & exploration
Optional excursions and cultural experiences
Space to reset mentally, emotionally, and physically
Whether you’re navigating transition, burnout, growth, or simply craving reconnection with yourself, this space was created with intention.
You’ll be guided on the retreat by Victoria Milam, founder of Women Up: a yoga instructor, healthcare professional, wellness advocate, and mother navigating growth in real time alongside you.
Throughout your time in Jamaica, you’ll be guided through movement, reflection, intentional conversation, rest, and experiences designed to help you slow down enough to hear yourself clearly again.
You won’t be pressured to become someone new here.
You’ll simply be given the space to reconnect with who you already are beneath the noise, expectations, responsibilities, and constant movement of everyday life.
This is not about perfection.
It’s about presence.
You’ll leave with more than memories of a beautiful destination. You’ll leave with a deeper connection to yourself, greater clarity around your path forward, and the reminder that pouring into yourself is not selfish, it’s necessary.
All inclusive rate: $1250 with deposit due at time of booking.

Women Up Foundation Retreats are transformational travel experiences designed for women who are ready to reset, reconnect, and rise into their highest selves. Founded by wellness advocate and yogi Victoria Milam, Women Up Foundation blends yoga, cultural immersion, adventure, and sisterhood in beautiful destinations around the world.
We believe women deserve space to breathe, reflect, and rediscover their power while also exploring the world in a bold, unapologetic, and yes… a little badass way. From sunrise yoga and deep conversations to cultural adventures and unforgettable excursions, each retreat is intentionally curated to help women reconnect with who they truly are and stay rooted in that truth long after the journey ends.
This journey is about finding yourself, standing firmly in your power, and experiencing the world alongside a community of women doing the same.
