This is Your Invitation to Surrender

Take a breath.

Nothing is required of you here.

You have carried many roles well.

You have learned how to be strong, capable, dependable.

You have shown up when you were tired.

You have held others together while quietly setting parts of yourself aside.

This retreat was created for the woman beneath all of that.

Not to fix you.

Not to rush you.

Not to turn you into someone new.

But to offer you space.

Space to rest without guilt.

Space to listen without interruption.

Space to be with God without performing.

Imagine giving yourself permission to set a few days apart to lay down what you have been carrying and remember who you are in His presence.

This might be the moment you've been waiting for to give yourself permission to experience something spacious, gentle, and deeply restorative. an experience designed to nourish body, mind, and spirit.

You do not need the right words to come.

You do not need to be at a breaking point.

You only need a willing heart.

If something in you feels seen here, trust that.

UNMASKED is a sacred pause.

A private women's retreat in the Smoky Mountains, May 1-4

If your heart has been quietly nodding while you watched, this space was created with you in mind.

Your Mountain Sanctuary

Four days tucked away in a private mountain retreat designed for rest, connection, and reflection.

A private mountain sanctuary, tucked away from noise and expectation.

Designed for quiet mornings, deep conversations, and unhurried presence.

A place to sit, listen, and let your heart settle.

Evenings softened by firelight, stillness, and shared silence.

Creation itself invites you to slow down.

Rooming Details

All bedrooms are shared KING rooms designed for comfort and connection. Most rooms include private baths,
and a few share a Jack and Jill bath.
Private bath rooms are assigned FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED.
While many women attend Unmasked alone, some choose to come with a trusted friend, sister, or small group from church.
If you have someone in your life who would feel safe in this space with you, consider inviting her.
There are a few room options ideal for pairs who would prefer to share.
Sometimes healing feels even more powerful when witnessed by someone who already knows your story.
We will do our best to place you together.

How We Begin Each Morning

We start with Pilates and prayer.

Not to achieve.

Not to perform.

But to come back into your body and into the presence of God.

You will move slowly.

You will breathe deeply.

You will pray honestly.

With mountain air around you and no one asking anything from you.

That is not a bonus.

That is core transformation.

Still Listening for Confirmation?

If something in you feels drawn, but you need to sit with it…

We recorded a private 5-part audio series walking you through the heart behind Unmasked.

Each episode gently unfolds:

• Why this retreat exists

• Who it is truly for

• What happens when women step into sacred space together

• And how to discern if this is your season

You don’t have to decide right now.

You can listen first.

Secure your spot!

Unmasked Experience:

Only a limited number of shared KING rooms with private baths are available. FIRST COME FIRST SERVED.

$375 secures your place and is applied toward your Retreat Experience.

STILL NOT SURE?

What You Might Be Wondering

Is this Retreat only for women in ministry?

No. This retreat is for Christian women who are ready to lay the mask down and be restored. You do not need to lead anything, teach anything, or have a platform. You simply need a willing heart.

What if I don’t know anyone coming?

Many women will not.

UNMASKED is intentionally designed to create safety and connection from the very beginning. You will not be left to figure it out alone. We gather as strangers and leave as sisters.

What if I’m not very emotional?

That’s okay.

Healing does not require dramatic tears. It requires honesty. You are free to move at your own pace. There is no pressure to share more than you’re ready for.

Is this therapy?

No.

This is a Scripture-rooted, Spirit-led space for reflection, prayer, restoration, and community. It is not a clinical counseling intensive. If you are currently in therapy, this can beautifully complement that journey.

What’s included?

Your investment includes:

• Lodging in a private mountain estate

• All retreat sessions and guided experiences

• Curated moments like mask decorating and the masquerade celebration

• Retreat materials and keepsakes

• Group meals throughout the weekend

We have thoughtfully prepared this experience so you can arrive and rest.

What is not included?

Travel to and from the retreat location and any personal purchases.

Full travel details will be provided after registration.

How many women will attend?

This retreat is intentionally intimate.

We are keeping the group small so every woman is seen, supported, and known. Once spots are filled, registration will close. Most rooms are shared King rooms. Private bath rooms are assigned FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED. Max sign ups are at 17.

What is the cancellation policy?

Due to venue commitments and advance planning, payments are non-refundable after April 15th, 2026 and a $375 deposit is not refundable.

If an unexpected emergency arises and you are unable to attend, you may transfer your registration to another woman with prior approval.

We encourage all attendees to consider travel insurance to protect their investment.

What should I bring?

Comfortable clothing.

A journal.

An open heart.

A gown for the Masquarade ball (and comfortable shoes to match)

You’ll receive a detailed packing guide soon after registration so you feel fully prepared.

If you’re still feeling a quiet nudge, trust it.

Some women feel the nudge to attend…

but their current season makes it difficult.

If UNMASKED has stirred something in you, and you are in a position to give, you can help place another woman at the table.

Your gift goes directly toward sponsoring a Christian woman who longs for rest, healing, and space to lay her mask down safely.

You are not just covering a registration.

You are creating room for:

• A mother who has been strong for too long

• A pastor’s wife who quietly carries everyone else

• A woman walking through grief

• A daughter ready to remember who she is

Every gift, whether partial or full, moves us closer to seating another sister.

A full sponsorship is $997.

You may give any amount.
