Her Iwa Pele Retreats
Destination: Cuba
December | 3-8, 2019

Greetings,

I am thrilled to welcome you as a special guest of Global Ase’s newest luxury initiative, Her Iwa Pele retreats focused on leadership and wellness for women. During December 3-8, 2019, we will retreat in Cuba, the land where culture, African spirituality and heritage join to make a powerful remedy for restoration.

For the past 25 years, I have curated and facilitated cultural programs and immersions throughout Africa and the Diaspora.  I am delighted to share all my years of experience and relationships with women during our boutique luxury retreats.

Her Iwa Pele retreats are rooted in a combination of mindful leadership, indigenous values, and movement medicine. Our offerings include personalized experiences and expert wellness practitioners of your choice.

Iwa Pele, means of good character from the West African Yoruba language of Nigeria and is more than a definition, it’s a restorative concept. Good character is a complex notion; knowing what is good, for who and when – is how we can achieve our personal and collective goals.

We look forward to scheduling our first touch point, a video interview. After our meeting, we will develop your customized restorative package, and then, upon arrival, we’ll co-design and your mindful leadership practice.

At Her Iwa Pele, we take a holistic approach to feminine empowerment in our lives, using self-love as the pathway to achieving overall success. We have designed offerings for leaders from all walks of life. Whether an acting or aspiring executive, entrepreneur, parent, activist, teacher, or simply seeking balance and direction on the next steps in your life, you are welcome.

We look forward to receiving your application.

Ase!

Kwayera Archer, Founder
