Girls With Guts Annual Retreat 2026
Girls With Guts Annual Retreat 2026: Nourish From Within
For over a decade, Girls With Guts retreats have been a space to connect, heal, and grow together. Each year, we’ve explored new ways to support our community and in 2026, we’re diving deeper than ever into the power of whole-person wellness. 
Join us in the redwoods of La Honda, California, from October 23–26, 2026, for a restorative weekend surrounded by nature at YMCA Camp Jones Gulch.
This year’s retreat is all about nourishing the mind, body, and spirit – embracing every part of who we are, inside and out.
What you can look forward to:
- Insightful sessions with GI psychologists exploring the mind-gut connection
- Nutrition-focused workshops with registered dietitians and wellness experts
- Gentle yoga and mindfulness practices among the trees
- A special body image session featuring empowering portraits
- Space to share your story, connect, and be seen—exactly as you are
- And to close it all out – a Masquerade Ball to explore the “masks we wear” – that’s sure to be unforgettable!
Whether you’re returning to the sisterhood or joining us for the first time, you’ll leave this weekend feeling reconnected, recharged, and reminded that healing isn’t just physical—it’s holistic.
