Alone Together 2025 Women's Retreat

Registration closes September 30th

December 5 - 7, 2025, Freeport, Grand Bahama, The Bahamas

For the past three years, every December I’ve hosted Alone Together virtually with incredible women—and now, we’re taking it to the beautiful Bahamas! It’s a dream come true for me, something I envisioned every December. Join other women on a similar journey to joy and purpose. Come and rest, dream and acquire tools and practices to accomplish your goals. Stepping away is hard, but you'll return to your loved ones, renewed and ready for what's next.

Why This Women's Retreat

Alone Together Bahamas 2025, A Personal & Professional Development Women's Retreat

Alone Together has been a transformative women's development program designed to help women experience personal and professional growth in a supportive environment. One of the biggest challenges women face is allowing themselves the freedom, without guilt, to set aside time to invest in themselves; a time for self-reflection and understanding their unique genius so they can design a life they love. This women's retreat and workshop provides that sacred space and the skills to build that life they want. Be a part of our first International launch!

About The Workshop Leaders

Abby Knowles, Leadership & Development Expert

Meet your host, guide & Founder: AbbY KNOwles

Meet Abby Knowles, the visionary founder and host of Alone Together—a transformative women’s development retreat born from her own journey of growth, clarity, and courage. Over her 28-year career as a corporate executive, Abby has coached and mentored countless professionals toward their goals. What began as her private December ritual to pause and reset has blossomed into a sacred space she now shares with women seeking more—more alignment, more intention, and more joy.


Abby understands the pressure women carry: to lead, to serve, to achieve—often without the time or permission to simply be. Alone Together offers a safe space and inspiring environment where Abby brings her experience, tools and resources to help women slow down, listen inward, and design lives that reflect who we truly are.

This is more than a women's retreat—it’s a reset. Come and write your next chapter.

" I was afraid to do this in my phase of life but it was wonderful! I feel inspired and hopeful, THANK YOU!!!" 2024


"Coming out of the workshop I was able to flesh out parts of my personal vision which were hazy. I grew some courage. And I am now open and willing." 2023


"...was perfectly timed for me, because I am personally going through a transition professionally. I was moved and motivated by the statements: to "get caught living", chase my goals and dreams with "urgency", strive to "find my zone of genius, my fly state"; and that "success happens when opportunity meets preparation" and a resounding call to be prepared, stay ready and action." 2022

We’re excited and making preparations for you.
