Project Description

MYRetreat is on a mission to reach 1 million women with self-care practices. We believe self-care is a necessity, and with chocolate mindfulness it's luxurious.

In the US alone, 23.5 million women are facing the stressors of remote learning or sending their kids back to school during the pandemic. Our retreat guests tell us time is the #1 barrier to consistently practicing self-care. With the MYRetreat App, even the busiest mom will take time for self-care.

In just 5 minutes per day, women will escape for some "me time". Women savor the moment with chocolate mindfulness videos, journal about what they’re grateful for, and book the upcoming virtual retreat. It's mindfulness made easy.

Since 2017, MYRetreat has offered chocolate mindfulness and gratitude journaling, during 90 minute women's retreats. In 2019, we expanded to offer business retreats for organization's leadership teams. When the Pandemic began, we accepted the challenge to shift from our brick and mortar retreats to an online platform. The response from our virtual retreat attendees confirmed that the virtual MYRetreat Method continues to offer an essential pause from the stressors of external responsibilities, and a much needed moment to focus on our intrinsic worth.

Right now, we are developing the MYRetreat App, for self-care practices anytime, anywhere. This will introduce women to luxurious mindfulness and gratitude practices, serve as support to retreat participants in between our monthly retreats, and allow for easy access to purchase virtual retreat tickets.

Funding will cover:
Cost of the App, Marketing Expenses, Content Creation, and Business Legal Fees.

The MYRetreat Team:
Melissa Mueller-Douglas, LMSW - Founder of MYRetreat
Asma Yamani - App Developer/Consultant
Drake Thomas - Mentor (SBDC)
Kristin DePippo - Mentor (SCORE)

When you invest in the MYRetreat App you're investing in your own self-care, and contributing to the wellness of our community as a whole! I send my sincerest gratitude to you for investing in the development of the MYRetreat App.
