Essence Elevated

March 6–8, 2026
Destin, Florida
Hosted at The Alice

Essence Elevated is a three-day immersive experience created for Black women who are tired of pushing through and ready to move with intention.

This is not a hustle conference.
This is a space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and walk away with clarity, tools, and community that actually support your life.

Friday | REST
We start with arrival, ease, and exhale.
• Guest check-in and welcome networking
• VIP Dinner experience (ticketed separately)
• Fireside conversation focused on rest as a strategy—not a reward

Saturday | RISE
This is the heart of the experience.
• Full-day Essence Elevated conference
• Guided sessions on rest, mental wellness, leadership, purpose, and legacy
• Thought-provoking conversations led by a powerful lineup of Architects
• Lunch included
• Evening Legacy Dinner & Soft Life Soirée (ticketed separately)

Sunday | REIGN
We close with intention and integration.
• Sisterhood brunch & vendor market
• Final Essence Elevated sessions
• Reflection, alignment, and forward movement

Essence Elevated is for Black women who:
• Are carrying a lot and want sustainable ways to live and lead
• Want rest that actually replenishes—not just time off
• Are ready to align their life, work, and legacy
• Value meaningful conversation, culture, and connection

• Practical tools you can use immediately
• A deeper understanding of rest, rhythm, and alignment
• Renewed clarity around your purpose and next steps
• Community with women who get it
• A reminder that you don’t have to do everything alone
