The Itinerary

DAY 1: Arrival & Intention

Arrive, exhale, and shift into island time with welcome refreshments and your retreat bag. We’ll gather for an opening circle and Pivot Pages intention-setting session to name what you’re ready to release and what you’re calling in, then share a grounding dinner and relaxed evening connection to ease into the house, the land, and each other. Plan to arrive between 3pm and 5pm.

DAY 2: The Power of Pivoting

We’ll start the day with barefoot grounding and agility work to wake the body and steady your nervous system. A group walk and scavenger hunt invite you outside for mindful time in nature. In the afternoon, we’ll dive into “The Power of Pivoting” workshop, followed by a candle-and-closet release ritual to let go of what no longer fits. We’ll close the day with a restorative dinner and simple reflection.

DAY 3: Power & Presence

Saturday begins with a full-body strength and vocal empowerment session to build confidence, courage, and presence in your body. Then, we’ll move into a guided chakra meditation and journaling to clear, align, and listen more deeply to your inner truth. A creative integration activity helps anchor your insights in a tangible way, and we’ll finish with a celebratory dinner and closing circle to honor the pivots and possibilities ahead.

DAY 4: Departure & Integration

We’ll close our transformative retreat with a light morning stretch, then share breakfast and closing reflections to name what you’re taking home and how you’ll integrate it.

After checkout and goodbyes, you’ll leave with clearer next steps—and the grounded knowing that your pivots can come from truth, not fear.

MEET YOUR GUIDES

Coach D.

I’m Derith — but most people know me as Coach D. I’m a women’s wellness coach, retreat guide, and the founder of FIERCE by Choice — a movement rooted in helping women fiercely love the skin they’re in through strength, self-care, and soul connection. … but most of all, FIERCE is about choosing yourself, every single day. It’s about having the courage to step into your truth, your power, and your next season with intention. I’ve been coaching for over 30 years, guiding women to create lives filled with purpose, confidence, and vitality. I’ve led thousands of fitness classes, coached habit transformation programs, hosted life-changing retreats, and built a community where women feel seen, supported, and strong — inside and out. What lights me up? Helping women rediscover their power — physically, emotionally, and energetically. Whether it’s through a barbell, a breakthrough moment, or a still sunrise on retreat, I believe we all have the capacity to shift, heal, and grow. My coaching blends movement, mindset, a

Claudia Moriel

Meet Claudia Moriel, founder of The Lite Guide and your guide for meditation, energy healing, and “inner pivot” work on this retreat.

Claudia’s path began with her own healing journey through Hashimoto’s and years of brain fog, fatigue, and frustration with conventional approaches. That challenge led her to explore biohacking, nervous system regulation, meditation, plant medicine, and light/frequency-based tools—and ultimately to a way of living where science and spirituality work together to support real, lasting change.

Her philosophy is simple: when you get clear on what you truly desire and gently support your body and energy system, healing doesn’t have to be a battle. It becomes an alignment.

At the Martha’s Vineyard retreat, Claudia will guide you through chakra-balancing meditations, nervous system reset practices, energy work, and “Power of Pivoting” conversations that help you release old patterns, reclaim your clarity, and access a calmer, more resourced version of you.

She has a grounded, loving presence and a gift for making deep work feel accessible, safe, and even a little magical.
