Ladies, let’s get real. When was the last time you truly put yourself first? Between work, family, caring for loved ones, and all those daily responsibilities that pull us in every direction, it can feel like “me time” is always on the back burner. But what if you could take a trip that’s all about you? That’s the beauty of a Me-Moon—a vacation designed for you to reconnect, recharge, and reclaim your joy. And the best part? You get to meet other amazing women who are doing the exact same thing.
A Me-Moon is your chance to step away from the everyday noise and treat yourself to a solo getaway—except you won’t be totally alone. This trip is about going solo but doing it with a sisterhood of women who are on similar journeys. Imagine traveling with a group of women who, like you, have given so much to others and are now finally ready to give back to themselves. You’ll get that time to explore and reflect on your own, but you’ll also form connections with a sisterhood that’s doing the same, making new friends who get it.
As we get older, it’s no secret that finding true friendships can be tough. How often do we meet people who genuinely understand us and share our values? It’s way easier to bond with someone over shared experiences when you’re exploring unique, new destinations, trying a new cuisine, or laughing over a glass of wine under the stars than it is to find that connection over coOee at home. A Me-Moon lets you break free from the routine and find people who, like you, are ready for their own slice of joy.
When we’re younger, friendships seem to come naturally. We bond over shared classes, dorm rooms, and early-life adventures. But as we age, friendships get harder to maintain. Life gets busy and finding friends who understand where we’re at in life can feel almost impossible. The New York Times even cited a study showing that strong female friendships can help us live longer, reduce stress, and keep us healthier as we age. Yet, forming those connections takes effort and, let’s face it, a bit of courage to put ourselves out there again.
The beauty of a Me-Moon is that it brings together women who are all there for the same reason: to put themselves first for once. You’re no longer the wife, mom, boss, or caregiver. You’re just you, traveling with other women who are also trying to find their bliss. These shared experiences—whether it’s hiking a mountain, sharing stories over a bonfire, or simply sipping coffee in the morning sun—create bonds that go deeper than the surface level.
It’s no wonder more women are choosing to travel alone. Solo travel gives us the chance to discover who we are outside of our roles. It’s a reminder of our strength, resilience, and independence. Science backs this up, too. According to a report by the Global Coalition on Aging, travel can have significant cognitive, physical, and emotional benefits. People who travel regularly have lower stress levels, sharper cognitive function, and improved emotional well-being. When we step out of our comfort zones, we’re not just seeing new places; we’re allowing ourselves to grow and heal in ways we can’t achieve at home.
Cindy, a recent Me-Mooner, shared her experience with us: “After my divorce, I was a bit lost. I had spent so many years defining myself through my family and work that I didn’t know who I was anymore. Taking a Me-Moon felt selfish at first, but it turned out to be the best thing I ever did for myself. I met women who I could laugh with, cry with, and be myself around. I came back feeling like I found a part of myself I’d forgotten existed.”
Miriam, a grandmother who recently took her first Me-Moon, said: “I thought I was too old to travel solo. I didn’t want to be the odd one out, but I was amazed by how many of us were there to reclaim something for ourselves. We’d each been through so much in our lives, but on this trip, I felt like we were all girls again, just enjoying life without expectations. I came home with five new friends and a heart full of memories.”
Solo travel, especially on a Me-Moon, becomes its own form of therapy. Picture this: you’re hiking through a serene mountain trail, breathing in fresh air with every step, feeling the beauty of the world around you. Or maybe you’re exploring a new city, savoring every bite of an amazing meal, or just sitting on a beach watching the waves. These moments can be more healing than any self-help book or spa day.
The American Psychological Association even supports the idea that travel can significantly improve emotional resilience. Taking time away from daily stressors and immersing yourself in new environments opens up space for relaxation and renewed energy.
Let’s meet Linda, a woman in her late 60s who recently took her first Me-Moon. After losing her husband of 40 years, Linda found herself in a world that felt foreign and overwhelming. She had spent nearly her entire adult life sharing decisions, routines, and dreams with her partner, and now, for the first time, she was standing alone. She felt as though she was not only grieving her husband but also the identity she had built around their life together.
Linda had never taken a trip alone, much less planned one just for herself. “I didn’t even know what I’d like to do,” she admitted to us later. “For years, our vacations were always decided together—his favorite beach, our favorite cruise line, the same restaurants we both loved. When it came to picking something just for me, I felt lost. Who was I without him, and what did I actually enjoy?”
After some encouragement from her daughter, Linda decided to join other women travelers, hoping she’d discover a few things about herself along the way. Nervous and unsure of what to expect, she packed her bags and headed to the Italian countryside, a destination she realized she’d always been curious about but had never suggested for their family trips.
Those first few days, Linda found herself unsure. Even the simple decision of where to sit at breakfast felt strange. But gradually, she began to explore little pieces of herself she hadn’t thought about in years. She found herself drawn to quiet mornings with a book on the terrace, lingering in local art galleries, and taking long, slow walks along the cobbled streets. She made friends with the other women on the trip—many who were widows or divorcees themselves. For the first time, she felt able to laugh freely, share stories, and even dream about her future.
One evening, over pasta and wine with her new friends, Linda had an epiphany. “I realized that I could make my own choices now, for no other reason than because I wanted to. It was like meeting myself for the first time.”
When she returned home, Linda felt renewed. She realized she could still plan adventures, even if it was just her now. Her Me-Moon had given her the courage to find out what she wanted out of life as her own person, not just as a partner, wife, or mother.
“I never thought I could find joy again on my own,” she said, “but this journey was the start of a new life that’s all mine and that I’m in control of my next adventures.”
If you’re ready to experience all that a Me-Moon has to offer, the time to book that ticket and embrace the journey is now. This isn’t just another vacation; it’s a chance to rediscover yourself, connect deeply with other amazing women, and come back home as the best version of yourself.
So, pack your bags and leave the “shoulds” behind. You’ve earned this. Let the Me-Moon be your journey back to you—because putting yourself first is the best adventure you’ll ever take.
