PLAY with PURPOSE

Retreat 
Koh Samui, Thailand
February 1-8 2025 

 

Hey there! I'm Rebecca Taylor, your retreat hostess with the mostest!

I'm all about transformation, both in life and in my two-decade journey throughout the beauty industry. I embarked on my own healing journey in 2020. I discovered that I was not JUST my work and my identity was so much more than what I did and how I made a living....but rather who I innately am.

Since then, I've been devoted to not just evolving in my craft; but I'm called to a deeper mission now, which is personal growth and empowering others to embrace their own journeys of self-improvement.

With a community of over 600,000 followers and having shared my expertise across 38 countries, my focus is on meaningful connections and real talk about evolving as individuals.

My philosophy is simple: keep evolving. Whether it's gaining education in your craft, implementing a new processing modality or tackling a personal challenge, it's all about moving forward, staying curious, and being open to learning. My approach is down-to-earth and all about supporting each other through the ups and downs of life and trying to find the silver lining while doing it.

 

In short, I'm your go-to for genuine encouragement, practical but profound mindset shifts and a reminder that growth and change are not just possible but something to be embraced, in both our personal lives and careers.

My WHY and Vision
behind this retreat...

So, you know how Thailand is quite literally my absolute favorite place on this planet? We're actually retiring there in 7 years...nuts right?! Well, after going there 10 times (yes, I'm obsessed), I couldn't resist the urge to create something amazing on this magical land, immersed in the most beautiful culture. And let me tell you, I've been on so many retreats around the world, I'm practically a retreat fiend at this point! I've been compiling a mental inventory of what I liked and what I would do differently. So, I'm doing it!

 

Picture this: I recently attended a yoga retreat in Koh Samui and it was pure bliss. I stayed at the Samahita Retreat center and OMG, it was love at first sight. The energy, the serenity, the food, the private beachside property, the spa, the whole vibe—I immediately knew deep down in my soul that it was time for me to plan my own retreat, and it HAD to be at Samahita. Trust me, this place is seriously something special. I literally started planning this retreat, paid the deposit and signed the contract after 1 week of returning home. When you know in your gut, you know!

 

Now, let's talk about play and tapping into our inner child. It's always been a core value of mine. Brene Brown says it's even the main marker for someone who is living a  'whole-hearted' life. I feel that and agree with her! And you know what? Here's where I am and what I feel on a SOUL level- after the last few years of diving deep into the heavy stuff, healing collective and personal trauma and focusing on that kind of inner work, I believe it's time to throw a big, joyful celebration! We've earned it, right? I sure know I want to live life to the fullest, explore the world, and have a blast with a bunch of awesome, like-minded humans. And that's exactly why the PLAY with PURPOSE retreat was born!

 

Imagine: we'll come together and have the time of our lives. We'll let our inner child run wild, all while embracing personal growth and purpose. We'll experience a journey of super immersive activities, workshops, playful healing modalities, relaxing, laughter, amazing food (basically pure hedonism) that will bring out the best in us and help us connect with ourselves and each other.

 

So, what are you waiting for? Join me on this epic adventure in Koh Samui, Thailand, where we'll create unforgettable memories, find inspiration, and celebrate the sheer joy of being alive. PLAY with PURPOSE Retreat has been curated for a community of boss babes, entrepreneurs, thought leaders AND fun-seekers to explore Thailand and themselves on a profoundly playful level!

 

Ready to jump in and secure your spot in the PLAY with PURPOSE retreat? Don't miss out, my friend. Let's make this the most amazing, playful experience ever. See you there!
