“I AM THAT WOMAN RETREAT” SUPPORTS HOLISTIC WELLNESS, OCT. 2 - 6

The 2024 I Am That Woman (IATW) Retreat – a five-day, four-night women’s wellness experience, will be held Oct. 2 – 6, in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, at the Westin Beach Resort and Spa at Frenchman’s Reef. The event is sponsored by the Chicago-based I Am That Woman Movement, a 501(c) (3) nonprofit, led by IATW Retreat Founder and CEO Twyler Jenkins. According to Jenkins, "This retreat is imperative for African-American women to learn how to live through holistic wellness practices to mitigate and alleviate stress, anxiety, pressure, and mental and emotional exhaustion from our personal and professional lives. African-American women have the highest rates of chronic illnesses that are highly stress related. That is why I created the IATW Retreat."
