Roycycled Besties Retreat 2026
It starts with one brave yes...
Join us for a weekend of creativity, connection, and transformation for women ready to rediscover themselves through art.
April 23–26, 2026 | Safford, Arizona
Limited to 55 women ready to say yes to themselves.
"What if creativity doesn’t require confidence, it creates it?"
You don’t need to feel ready. You just need to feel willing.
Because this retreat isn’t about being perfect, prepared, or polished.
It’s about saying yes to something deeper:
- Yes to curiosity.
- Yes to community.
- Yes to the kind of creativity that awakens more than just your hands.
Come for the creativity.
Stay for the connection.
Leave transformed.
This retreat is for women in their Third Act, women who’ve spent years pouring into others, and now feel the quiet pull to return home to themselves.
It’s for the creative soul who:
- Used to make things, but life got busy and art took a backseat
- Has stacks of supplies but struggles to start (or finish) anything
- Feels stuck in perfectionism or fear, unsure if they’re "doing it right"
- Hasn’t found a place where she truly feels seen, supported, and safe to explore
- Is ready to reconnect with creativity not as performance, but as permission
And it’s for the artist who:
- Wants to go deeper, not just wider
- Is hungry for a meaningful community, not just another workshop
- Longs to shake off the rules and create something that feels like her
- Has all the techniques—but is ready to find the magic in the messy middle
- Believes that bravery and belonging belong at the heart of the creative process
“Most women come solo, and leave with sisters.”
Whether you’re just getting started or have been creating for years... if your heart’s craving space to explore, grow, and remember who you are through art… this is for you.
Count ME In!Not Sure What To Expect?
Creative exploration without judgment.
Try new tools, new techniques, and new ways of seeing, all in a space that encourages experimentation and imperfection.
A warm, welcoming community.
From the moment you arrive, you’ll feel it, the laughter, the sisterhood, the instant belonging. No cliques. No comparison. Just creative women showing up for themselves and each other.
Guided instruction that meets you where you are.
Whether you’re just getting your creative footing or you’ve been making for decades, the workshops are layered so you’ll learn something new and feel proud of what you create.
Moments of bravery that change everything.
From raising your hand to try something new… to walking away with a piece of art that reflects you... you’ll surprise yourself in the best way.
"Saying yes to your creativity (in community) is the most powerful way to rediscover your courage, your joy, and yourself."
Sign Me Up!
Transformation that follows you home.
What starts with picking up a paintbrush can ripple into your routines, your relationships, and your self-talk. The retreat might end Sunday… but the impact won’t.
