Our Story
"Empowered In Paradise was created with a passion to share my dreams of inspiring women of all ages to reach for their dreams. My personal journey has made me realize that so many times, we stop creating what we want because of obstacles in our way causing us to think we can't succeed – but you can! I had to work three times harder than a man to achieve my goals and nothing has stopped me from reaching for my highest potential. Focus, hard work, and determination has brought me to where I am today. I want to give other women the opportunity to network with likeminded woman, create lifelong bonds and friendships, and to learn how your dreams can be fulfilled. Our retreats will help you achieve your vision and keep you inspired."
