ME TIME RETREAT COVER 1.png.PNG

Where the ocean meets transformation.

Escape to an exclusive haven where time slows down and renewal begins. The Sanctuary Resort on Kiawah Island—a five-star coastal paradise where Atlantic breezes whisper transformation and luxury becomes a pathway to your authentic self.

​

This isn't just a getaway. It's a sacred invitation to step away from the relentless pace of leadership and achievement, creating space to reconnect with your deepest purpose and most vibrant self.

​

Hosted by Woman Behind the Vision and personally led by Dr. Stephanie M. Kirkland, the Recharge Retreat offers intentional sessions, restorative space, and realignment for women who lead, give, and carry so much.

 

Space is limited by design.

We are curating an intimate, high-touch experience where every woman feels seen, safe, and deeply supported.

​

YOUR JOURNEY

REDISCOVER YOUR ESSENCE
Shed the layers of expectation and remember the woman you were created to be—before the world told you who to become.

REFLECT & RELEASE
Exhale the constant proving. Surrender the perfection. Embrace a rhythm where stillness becomes your greatest strength.

RESTORE & RECLAIM
Draw boundaries around what matters most. Clear emotional clutter that clouds your clarity. Step back into the power of your unique voice and vision.

RECONNECT & RENEW
Join kindred spirits walking the path of authentic leadership—women who understand that true authority flows from alignment, not exhaustion.
​

THE PROMISE

You'll leave The Sanctuary not just rested, but reborn—rooted in purpose, clear in vision, and empowered to lead from a place of unshakable authenticity.

Where ocean meets shore, you'll find your center.
Where luxury meets intention, you'll reclaim your power.

Join us at the edge of the Atlantic, where every sunrise offers a new beginning.
