MISSION
SoulHAVEN Collective exists to provide safe spaces of retreat, healing and rejuvenation in nature for BIPOC artists, visionaries, and equalizers. Our trusted accomplices support us to curate experiences that replenish the human soul.
VISION
We envision a world where rest and healing are not commodities, but the right of everyone — specifically Black, Brown, and Indigenous communities* often left out of conversations regarding wellness. We center the voices, stories, experiences, and thriving of these individuals by creating welcoming havens for the whole self.
*and holding space for any intersecting identities that have been targeted and marginalized by white supremacy.
CREATORS & ARTISTS
Writers, musicians, dancers, filmmakers, designers, visual artists, and creatives of all kinds who need space to rest, reconnect, and create without burnout.
CHANGEMAKERS & ORGANIZERS
Community leaders, advocates, nonprofit professionals, educators, activists, and frontline workers dedicated to building stronger, more equitable communities.
BLACK, BROWN, & MARGINALIZED COMMUNITIES
Our retreats are intentionally designed to center people whose identities and work are often overlooked or carry disproportionate emotional and systemic burdens.
The people we serve
WHY WE SERVE ARTISTS
We value the power of the artist to deepen the mystery of what it means to be human. We value the power of art to aid in the imagination of a world that supports equitable human flourishing for all.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM THE RETREATS
RESPECT & SAFETY
Anticipate being treated with mutual respect and provided with a safe and secure environment.
CONNECT WITH COMMUNITY
Expect to meet like-minded participants who are also artists and activists, trying to make a difference in a world where the obstacles to thriving can be immense.
RECONNECTION TO YOUR INTUITION
Be prepared to develop a deeper level of self-trust as you rediscover your intuition amidst nature and in the company of friends.
CREATIVE INSPIRATION
Look forward to having the freedom to explore fresh ideas for your creative endeavors without being constrained by time, phone distractions, or the pressure of cooking dinner.
EMOTIONAL RELEASE
Expect to release the heavy burden you have been carrying. Allow yourself to express the grief you have been holding back, give voice to your anger, and reignite your dreams.
REST & RECOVERY
Recover a sense that rest is not an indulgence but the right of every human being. Sleep in, take naps, sit for hours in the sun, on a boat, in a hammock or rocking chair.
"Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is an act of political warfare."
