This isn’t about escaping your life

It’s about returning to it differently. Radiate is a two-day experience for women who want enough space to hear themselves again.

It isn’t about fixing you, reinventing you, or turning you into someone new. It’s about quieting the outside noise, returning to what feels true, and making more room for the woman you have always been.

Through movement, reflection, expert-led conversations, and meaningful connection, you’ll leave feeling clearer, more grounded, and more connected to yourself, ready to carry that feeling back into your everyday life.

For women who are ready to make room for themselves

Come alone or bring a girlfriend. You’ll be surrounded by an intimate community of interesting, accomplished women who are also making space to listen inward, share honestly, and live more fully as themselves.

The setting

An exclusive, private Gulf-front residence

Our intimate group will gather, learn, reflect, and connect at a private Gulf-front residence on Longboat Key. For privacy and security, the exact address, parking information, arrival instructions, and access details are included with your registration materials.

The women behind Be You

Kim and Krista created Radiate Retreat to give women the space, support, and experiences they need to feel more connected to themselves, not to become someone different, but to live more fully as who they already are.

Everything to know before you radiate

Do I need to be fit, or a yoga person?

No. Movement sessions are led at a level anyone can join, with options throughout. Nothing is performed in front of the group and nobody is assessed. Several past guests had not been on a mat in years.

Can I attend alone?

Absolutely. Radiate is intentionally designed to make connection feel natural. Many women arrive on their own and leave with meaningful new relationships. If you would rather come with a friend, we encourage you to invite a girlfriend who is also ready to make room for herself.

How do travel and accommodations work?

You book your own flights and hotel. Airports, drive times, typical rideshare fares, where to stay, and what to pack are all covered on the travel page.

Can I sponsor or partner with the retreat?

Yes. Sponsorship and partnership opportunities are handled directly by Kim. Email beyoumotivate@gmail.com.
