Soft Life, Strong Legacy
About this trip
There’s something sacred about closing summer on Martha’s Vineyard — the sea breeze, the history, the legacy of Black excellence that fills the island during the African American Film Festival.
The Soft Life, Strong Legacy Retreat was created for women ready to rest, reconnect, and honor their stories in a space that feels both luxurious and liberating. Over three intentional days, you’ll move through wellness sessions, island exploration, film-inspired reflections, and sisterhood — all from a private coastal estate.
​This retreat is more than rest — it’s restoration with purpose. Come soften, celebrate, and leave with your cup full.
