Journeys with Adele and Monty

Authentic Beauty Journeys
May 23-27, 2024

Immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the Bahamas for a unique and liberating experience that will forever change how you feel about yourself!

We are so excited to be offering this retreat, designed for women who want to feel beautiful exactly as they are.  We believe that true beauty comes from within. That's why at our upcoming Cat Island retreat, we're dedicated to helping women harness their inner beauty and radiate it outwards. Whether you struggle with a lack of confidence, body image issues or even if you simply want to feel free to express your most authentic self,  this event is the perfect opportunity for you to boost your confidence and discover a new, vibrant version of yourself. Monty will capture your newfound radiance in stunning photographs, serving as a beautiful reminder of your transformation long after the event.

We will be based in Cat Island, a remote island in the Bahamas known for its spectacular white sand, near- empty beaches and gorgeous turquoise waters. The breathtaking location provides the perfect backdrop for our transformative event, allowing you to truly unwind and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the Bahamas.

Over the course of 4 days, you will:

  • Learn to feel beautiful, sexy, and at ease in your body.

  • Increase feelings of self-acceptance and self-love.

  • Harness simple secrets to project powerful self-confidence and to attract others through your energy.  

  • Learn effective and simple skills that will help you feel and look your absolute best in photographs. 

  • Take home a professional portfolio of photographic evidence of your transformation. 

  • Connect with a group of like-minded women who will be a source of inspiration and support.

This is for you if:

  • You are ready and willing to step out of your comfort zone to feel your most beautiful and confident!

  • You are willing to have your thoughts and beliefs challenged. 

  • You want to connect with other women on a similar journey.

  • You are comfortable with bodies and nudity (or are willing to experience the discomfort you may feel around it). 

  • You appreciate the beauty of nature and do not require typically “luxurious” accommodations.

Requirements:

We are limiting our retreat to 8 participants so that we may create the intimate atmosphere required for this kind of experience. Therefore, it’s essential that we put together the right mix of people for our journey. 

In order to ensure that all participants are a great fit, we need to speak to everyone who’s interested for 10-15 minutes.

  • “The retreat with Adele and Monty was such a magical experience. I went from wanting neutral acceptance of my body to experiencing radical joy and a comfort in my body I had not experienced in many years.”

    Colette E.

  • “I moved out of my comfort zone and my confidence grew. If you are considering joining one of Adele and Monty’s retreats, step out of your own way and make it happen!”

    Vicky C.

  • “I joined this trip because I needed a vacation but in the end, I got so much more out of it than that! I made deep connections with the other women and truly appreciated that the trip felt much more purposeful than just lying on the beach nursing a hangover!”

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I pack?

Pack light! Cat Island is an extremely casual place.  You will not need to dress up. 

Think bathing suits and casual coverups/ dresses. 

You will not need makeup or hair styling for photo shoots so you can leave all but the most basic of your products at home! This is an opportunity for you to embrace your natural beauty!

Suggested Packing List:

  • Shoes: you do NOT need heels. You probably won’t need anything other than flip-flops! You might consider sneakers or teva-type shoes for walking. 

  • 3-5 lightweight dresses or cover-ups - consider styles that are light and flowy, with light colors and simple or no patterns. 

  • If desired, 2-3 casual shorts and t-shirts (minimize separates as much as possible in favor of dresses).

  • 1 pair of comfortable, long lounge or yoga pants for cooler evenings.

  • 1 comfortable sweater or sweatshirt.

  • 2-3 swimsuits- push yourself out of your comfort zone a bit!

  • Makeup (very little, if any).

  • Sunscreen 

  • Headphones or AirPods for music if desired.

  • Hat and sunglasses

  • Toiletries (minimal) 

  • Medications 

  • Chargers

You will not need:

  • Electrical appliances like hair dryers and curling irons. 

  • High heels or anything “dressy”. 

How do I send payment?

Please send via Venmo to @Adele-Consulting, or if you prefer, you may provide a credit card number over the phone and we will process it via Square. In that case, send an email to Adele and she will call you.
