Exploring Bimini, Bahamas: A Worthwhile Wellness Weekend
Exploring Bimini, Bahamas: A Worthwhile Wellness Weekend

Looking for a weekend getaway that’s only 50 miles outside of Miami? If you answered yes, Bimini, Bahamas is where you want to be! I had the pleasure of attending the 3rd Annual Women’s Wellness Weekend, hosted by Significant Impact, which had our group of 30 women soaking in the serene vibes of Bimini, Bahamas. Last year’s wellness weekend was in Curacao and was amazing. This year’s experience was also one to remember. The allure of Bimini was undeniable, with its beautiful beaches, turquoise water and peaceful environment, making it the perfect backdrop for a weekend dedicated to women's wellness and empowerment.

In true post vacay fashion, I’m recapping my experience at Women’s Wellness Weekend and highlighting things to know about Bimini.

The Perfect DC Staycation at Yours Truly DC
The Perfect DC Staycation at Yours Truly DC

A couple months ago, I got the urge to plan a babymoon for my husband and I. We hadn’t done a babymoon when I was pregnant with Cameron and Cassidy (not sure if it was even a thing then), so I jumped at the idea to do one this go around with the twins, as this will likely be our last pregnancy. Not to mention, we both really wanted some quality time alone together before becoming a family of 6. So to celebrate these final weeks of pregnancy, we decided to go the route of a weekend staycation in DC, and it was beyond perfect! Today, I’m sharing all the details along with tips for planning your own DC staycation.
