One of Teal Diva’s core values is hands down, sisterhood. We believe that time spent together as gynecologic cancer survivors is priceless and feeds the soul. We had the opportunity to gather together women, who have previously attended a Teal Diva retreat, for a totally-teal reunion! We shared stories, trials, hugs, tears, smiles and LAUGHS – while connecting as we took a break from reality, a reprieve, an exhale. We are thankful these ladies said ‘yes’ and gave their time to pour into each other, reminding each other that they are not alone in this life, even when it’s bumpy.
“Loved every minute of this weekend! Thank you ladies for the connections, the laughter, the understanding, the new friendships and motivation to do more!” – Karla, survivor & attendee
“This has been such a great weekend hunting together in love and tenderness for each other. I will cherish every moment of our time together and write down these memories so I won’t easily forget them. Each smile, and every story has resonated with me and this time has enriched my life. Thank you for the laughs, the tears, and the hop e that will carry me through until we meet again.” -Anita, survivor & attendee
“Thank you to everyone for making this an incredible, meaningful and memorable experience. I love each and every one of you!” -Joanne, survivor & attendee
We could not have had such a successful weekend with out our sponsors and supporters. GSK Oncology and Carolina’s Natural Health Center sponsored delicious meals we were able to eat ‘family style’ catered by La Tea Da’s Catering and Terre A’ Terre Catering. Also, a huge shout out to our project supporters; Vibrational Sound Living, To Teal-ly Sisters, Meg Art Studio, Lake Norman Pickleball, Katie Warren, and Confluence Kayaks for providing engaging activities through out the weekend.
Thanks again to GSK Oncology, and please check out this video for ‘Wellness Beyond Your Cancer Treatment’ We hope you find it as helpful as we did!
