Does this sound like you…?

You love God, and you’re holding everything together at home and work…

And yet… something feels worn thin.

There’s a soul-level weariness that you can’t fully explain.

You know you need rest and replenishment, but you keep telling yourself:

Later… when life calms down.

Later… when there’s more margin or budget.

Later… when things feel more manageable.

What if there was a way to get that deep rest you need RIGHT NOW–in a way that fits your life?

Experience Soul-Filling Rest: On Your Timeframe + from the Comfort of Your Home!

This virtual rest retreat is part of the San Diego Rest Retreat I’m hosting Feb 25–Mar 1 with a small, intimate group of women.

While some women will be physically present with me, the virtual rest retreat is a powerful alternative way to experience the heart of this retreat—without travel, childcare logistics or added expense.

As a virtual participant, you’ll be able to:

  • Join us live for the core teaching sessions with Alicia
  • Enjoy full recordings so you can move through everything at your own pace
  • Feel safe to process with other attendees or on your own
  • Implement the rest experiences in a way that works for your time and budget

Whether you join us live during Feb 25–Mar 1 or not, this is your opportunity to receive the same core teachings and guided rest practices—at a pace and in a space that works for you.

A Real Invitation to Rest… At a Fraction of the Cost

The virtual retreat is significantly more affordable than the in-person experience, making it accessible if budget is a concern.

But more than that, this is:

  • a real pause from constant output
  • real spiritual nourishment for a tired soul
  • real rest with God—not another thing to perform

You don’t have to go anywhere to receive it. You don’t have to rearrange your entire life.

You can process the materials privately or live with us— at your own pace, within your real schedule and comfort level.

  • “I don't feel safe a lot of times in a group of people, but I felt safe with every woman at Alicia's retreat. I was able to make myself vulnerable, even with the people that I didn't know, and that atmosphere absorbed all of us and made it an incredibly restful and enriching experience.”
    Alice M–
    former retreat participant

  • “Alicia's retreats are holistic, like a total renewal–spirit, mind, body and soul. I couldn't think of anything that she could have done to have topped the experience. It was over and above, beyond what I could have imagined.”

About Your Retreat Host


Hey friend! If we haven't met before, I'm Alicia Michelle: Award-winning podcast host, author (Emotional Confidence), speaker, and certified Christian mindset coach (ACC, CPLC) for women.

First, I want you to know that I know what it's like to love God deeply and still find yourself running on empty. Not only have I experienced this myself, I work with women everyday who long for deep restoration with God and authentic connection with other women… but have no idea how to find it.

For years I dreamed of creating an intimate gathering where women could experience complete relaxation, heartfelt conversations in a safe setting, and a life-changing encounter with God in a gorgeous, luxurious locale.

In September 2025, I was able to create just that for a handful of women–at a dreamy Tuscan villa!

I saw the amazing miracles God did there for those women… and I knew I needed to recreate that level of excellence, hospitality and deep-soul rest at a retreat here in my hometown of San Diego. 

I also wanted to offer a virtual option for women who couldn't attend live–so that this sort of rest experience available could be available to as many women as possible.

I am so excited about all the ways God is putting together this retreat… and my team and I have already begun praying for you–our precious retreat guests!

I truly hope you'll say YES to joining us for this sacred time as we receive much-needed soul rest from our beloved Savior, Jesus.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. A retreat is about intention and space—not location. This experience is intentionally designed to help you slow down, listen and rest with God wherever you are.

PS: If you’d like to create your own private retreat experience—such as staying at a local hotel or setting aside intentional time away—we include a mini-course to help you plan that too.

Session 1: Thurs Feb 26: 11:00am – 12:30 pm PST

Session 2: Thurs Feb 26: 2:00 pm – 3:30 pm PST

Session 3: Sat Feb 28: 10:30 am -12:00 pm PST

P.S. Alicia will also be including pre-recorded video devotionals (the same devos she'll give live at the in-person retreat) so you can watch these on your own time.

No problem. You’ll receive full recordings and can move through everything at your own pace.

Not at all. Community access is optional, and you’re always in control of your level of engagement.

That’s exactly why this retreat exists. You’ll be gently guided to discover what replenishes you—without pressure or self-judgment.

All attendees — in-person and virtual — will be invited to join a private online community space exclusively for retreat participants. This is not a Facebook group, but a group within a private app just for retreat participants.


This online group opens 30 days before the retreat to help participants connect, share travel details, and prepare their hearts for what’s ahead. It remains open for 30 days after the retreat for continued encouragement, reflection, and prayer.

The online community is a beautiful way to start building friendships before you attend virtually and to stay connected afterward as you integrate what God has shown you.

Yes. This retreat is designed to support you in overwhelm—not add to it.

Yes, this is a women-only event (no men will be permitted to register).

While Alicia’s sessions and exercises are taught from a non-denominational, Christian perspective, please note that all teaching and materials are rooted in biblical truth. You do not need to identify as a Christian to attend, but all spiritual content will be presented through this lens.

This is a women-only event (no men will be permitted to register).

For virtual attendees, access to recordings and digital materials means there are no refunds for virtual tickets under any circumstance.

We’re here to help! Please reach out anytime at hello@aliciamichelle.com and we’ll be happy to answer your questions.

Yes, Rest Is Possible… Even In This Season

If you’ve been thinking, I know I need rest… I just don’t know how to make it happen… this is your invitation.

You don’t have to wait for life to slow down.

You don’t have to earn rest.

You’re allowed to receive it now.

Learn how to receive Christ-centered rest that shifts your perspective, brings peace into your relationships and offers real hope for this season!
