Everywhere we go, Black women are the ones people depend on.
We're the leaders. The fixers. The strong ones.
But with that comes with a price -- and even the "strongest" of us need a safe space to reset.
Sisters’ Skip Day is a full-day, luxury experience curated for women who lead at the highest levels. It’s a safe space where powerhouse Black women get to step out of the constant demands of life and business and into intentional restoration.
At the last Skip Day, we admitted truths we often keep hidden:
🗣 "I'm tired of fixing everyone else's messes."
🗣 “I feel like it’s always on me to do it all.”
🗣 “I am done working to 'prove myself' to people who are determined to undervalue me”
🗣 "Most of the spaces I used to see as safe just aren't anymore."
So we silenced the noise, we unplugged, and we created space for leaders to breathe, be cared for, and return stronger than ever.
Sisters' Skip Day isn’t self-care for show.
It’s how powerful women protect their longevity, their clarity, their peace, and their empire.
Inspired by the Book:
7 Dirty Secrets of a Strong Black Woman
When Dr. Rhonda wrote 7 Dirty Secrets of a Strong Black Woman, she named the hidden truths that too many powerful Black women carry: that many of us are building from a place of burnout, believing that our value is found in our work, our "excellence" -- our grind.
Sisters’ Skip Day is the response that says... No. It's not.
This one-day retreat gives Black women who lead, build, and pour into everyone else the space to be restored themselves. It’s intentional, it’s strategic, and it’s designed for leaders who understand that sustained impact requires sustained strength.
Dr. Rhonda's philosophy is that empires built on exhaustion won’t last. The women who gather here choose a different foundation -- the clarity, rest, and renewal that make their power sustainable.
