Why Serenity Within?

The root of our disharmony is in the lack of connection we have to ourselves. We recognize that there is deep medicine and nourishment in connection. Serenity Within is a space for you to retreat and not only explore the medicine of connection, but for you to feel wholeheartedly safe enough to receive it.

Testimonials

  • "This wellness retreat was exactly what I needed to reset, recharge, and truly feel inspired."

    “Being in Costa Rica with like-minded women—focused on wellness, fun, and adventure—gave me a rare and meaningful break from the constant go-go-go of everyday culture and was incredibly healing for both body and mind that I had been craving. 

    Carly and Haley created the perfect balance of flexibility and unforgettable experiences while helping me reconnect with my goals. I’m already counting down to next year!”

    - Haley Hoekstra

  • "Haley and Carly hosted a wonderful retreat in Costa Rica!!"

    “They brought together a group of 12 ladies who were mostly strangers and curated a week filled with self reflection, active movement, excursions, sun, laughter, good food, and building friendships. They put so much thought and love into this retreat and it showed. Cannot recommend their retreats enough!!”

    - Grace Buse

  • "The 2026 Serenity Trip is so hard to describe into words."

    “It was a week full of connection, healing, laughter and recharging. The amazing ladies that compiled this group really made this week feel like a giant, warm hug. I cannot wait for the next trip that Carly and Haley bring together!”

    - Jessica Davis

  • "My experience at the ‘Serenity Within Retreat’ was so serene and more than I could’ve imagined."

    “Since this was my first retreat I have ever attended, there were a lot of feelings of nervousness/anxiety to attend a trip with a group of women that I’ve never even met. However, those feelings quickly diminished when I arrived on site and did introductions with everyone. Everyone was extremely kind, welcoming, open, and intentional from the start. Being on this retreat gave me the opportunity to go outside of my comfort zone, be vulnerable knowing I was in a super safe space, connect with other like minded individuals, and be apart of a community. Even though each day had an itinerary of activities to do, everything was optional which was nice for those that wanted to take some time to themselves or do other activities to relax and make the experience their own. What truly made this experience amazing for me though was having 2 hosts like Carly and Haley that carefully curated this retreat that made you feel supported and included at all times. The staff at AmaTierra was top tier and I looked forward to eating the meals every single day because the food was DIVINE! I cannot recommend it enough to attend a retreat that’s hosted by Carly and Haley! This unforgettable experience will be one that I forever hold dear to my heart and I can’t wait until my next one!🤍”

    - Jami Rivera

  • I arrived at this retreat without expectations, simply because I had never done anything like this before.

    I came hoping for a good experience — and instead, I was gifted something truly life-changing.

    I discovered an entirely new world.

    I met beautiful, intelligent, inspiring women. I soaked in the natural beauty of Costa Rica. I felt genuinely cared for by the warm and attentive retreat center staff. I enjoyed incredible food that nourished both my body and soul. I faced fears and did things I never thought I would do.

    I practiced the best yoga I’ve done in years. I experienced Inner Child meditation for the first time — and I can honestly say the little me feels happier, lighter, and brighter because of it.

    This retreat was a true reset. It allowed me to see myself through a new lens. I let go of things I had been carrying for far too long. I released what no longer serves me, and in doing so, I set myself free.

    I feel lighter. I feel happier. And all of this happened because I took a leap of faith and allowed myself to try something new.

    Thank you, Haley and Carly. You have made a profound difference in my life. I am deeply grateful for the space you created, the intention behind every detail, and the love you poured into this experience.

    I will absolutely be joining you for the next retreat.

    With so much love and gratitude,
    Sandra
