Real talk: When was the last time YOU got to rest?

Not just sleep. I mean REAL rest—the kind that restores your nervous system and reminds you why you started this work in the first place.

That's what our Costa Rica retreats are about. Forest therapy. Cacao ceremonies. Waterfall visits. Community with people who GET IT. Partnerships with local communities who've been doing healing work for generations.

These retreats are for educators, youth workers, nonprofit leaders, therapists, caregivers—anyone who pours into others and needs to be refilled.

2026 trips are open. Comment "TELL ME MORE" if you're curious. 👇

(And even if you can't come—drop a ❤️ if you need more rest in your life. You're not alone.)

Before this year ends, I'm asking you to invest in something different. [Watch the video below]
GOC COLLECTIVE INCis a capacity-building hub for organizations serving women and girls of color.
We don't run one-off programs. We strengthen the people doing the work—through frameworks, tools, convenings, and community.
When you give before December 31st, your tax-deductible gift doesn't fund one program. It multiplies:
→ 1 investment contributes to multiple organizations strengthened to 1,000 girls impacted
Right now, GOC is seeking seed funding to get our programming out to the communities and create more training curriculum.
Will you invest in the movement for our girls?
💚 Donate before Dec 31: https://www.goccollective.org/donate-2

Meet the GOC COLLECTIVE INC's Board continues:
We’re honored to introudce Dr. Y Falami Devoe ,Secretary of GOC COLLECTIVE INC.
A Womanist healer, educator, poet, and Self-Care Ritualist, Falami’s work centers the thriving, liberation, and holistic wellness of Black women, Black femmes, gender-expansive folks, and Black girls!
Why Dr. Falami’s Presence Matters
Her mission, rooted in decolonized ways of being, ancestral wisdom, and healing justice, mirrors our core beliefs at GOC. In spaces where systems often ask girls and women of color to adapt, prove themselves, or survive, Falami insists on restoration, nourishment, and sacred reclamation.
She creates and holds spaces where:
--Self-care becomes resistance.
--Wellness is political.
--Identity matters as a pathway to liberation
How Our Paths Crossed
We met a few years ago at the National Mentoring Summit. Even then, I felt she was part of the movement we were building. When I finally asked her to join us—she answered the call with intention and heart.
That spirit is exactly what we need as we build a movement.
With Dr. Falami on our board, we are not only growing , we are growing with intention, care, and collective wholeness.
Please join us in celebrating her as part of the GOC family. 🧡
We’re building a movement rooted in healing, voice, and liberation.
