Rediscover Your Passion for Teaching while Basking in the Beauty of Mexico
JULY 30, 2024 - AUGUST 4, 2024
You’ve landed here because something inside of you is whispering
(or maybe even shouting) for a change.
You’ve given so much of yourself to your students, to the point where you might sometimes feel there’s not much left for you.
We see you.
We honor your dedication.
And we know the depth of your commitment.
Welcome To
THRIVE Retreat
This transformative experience is all about rejuvenation, connection, and embracing the serenity that comes from stepping away from the everyday norm (and challenges) of teaching.
​
Using wellness practices, cultural exploration, and transformational workshop sessions, we'll create an unforgettable sanctuary to rejuvenate and empower your truest self.
​
We'll nourish our minds and bodies while staying in one of Tulum's most stunning and inspiring locations.
​
Here, you'll spend your days in a gorgeous boutique hotel nestled on the ocean, enjoying nutritious gourmet meals and engaging in experiences that will stay with you for a lifetime.
​
Then, you'll immerse yourself in the magic of Tulum's natural landscapes and cultural heritage. From exploring the mystical cenotes to discovering the ancient Mayan ruins, every moment is designed to inspire awe and wonder.
​
We'll practice yoga, explore, savor the flavors of Tulum, and reignite our passion for teaching while learning about the rich Mayan culture that surrounds us.
Yes, this retreat is for those educators and lifelong learners who crave a pause for rejuvenation, a touch of adventure, and the luxury of time spent in nature... but that’s just the beginning.
​
This retreat is also for those seeking to cultivate a sense of peace, indulge in wellness, and bask in the collective energy of a community dedicated to self-care and professional growth.
​
Step away from your daily routine to rediscover your joy, prioritize self-care, and create memories that will enrich your teaching and personal life.

Meet Your THRIVE Host
Welcome to the Thrive Retreat, I'm Areulia Davis, your host and guide on your THRIVE journey. With over 30 years of experience in the educational field, my mission has always been to illuminate the path for school leaders and educators through the intricate world of education.
​
As a retired educator from the Chicago Public School system turned consultant, I've dedicated my career to understanding the depths of students' needs. I believe that educators hold the key to creating meaningful change, and it's with this belief that I've tailored my consultancy to empower schools.
Leveraging my expertise and data, I work alongside educational organizations and teachers, striving to foster enduring transformations that enrich both students' lives and school culture.
​
Join me at Thrive Retreat, where we'll explore not only the beauty of Tulum but also the depths of our potential to impact the educational world. Together, we'll rediscover our passion for teaching, recharge our spirits, and connect with like-minded educators, all while being enveloped in the serene beauty of nature.
