When Black Women Heal Retreat: Releasing Grief & Manifesting Joy 7/22/2025
For many Black women, the experience of carrying deep, layered grief (generational, historical, personal, spoken, and unspoken) is all too familiar. This retreat is designed exclusively for women who identify as Black, African American, or descendants of enslaved peoples in the Denver metro area. We will provide tools for releasing grief, reclaiming peace, and nurturing a more balanced, joyful life, personally and professionally.

What Makes This Retreat Stand Out:
This isn’t just a wellness moment. It’s a healing intervention. Releasing Grief & Manifesting Joy is a retreat for us, and by us—created by two Black women scholars, a clinician, and facilitators deeply committed to racial healing, resilience, and liberation. It centers your full humanity, not just your coping mechanisms. This retreat continues the When Black Women Heal retreat series - a journey toward liberation, healing, and personal transformation.
