About BleuRetreats
BleuRetreats is a dual-track wellness retreat platform operated by AvaBleu House HQ under the "Bleu is Resting" program. We host intimate, facilitated luxury retreats designed for women navigating the intersection of professional burnout, identity exhaustion, and the specific harm of navigating predominantly white corporate spaces.
Our two tracks serve distinct needs. BLEU Sanctuary (Track A) is built specifically for Black women recovering from racialized corporate trauma — code-switching fatigue, tokenism, microaggressions, and the hypervisibility that comes with being one of few. These retreats are held exclusively at Black-owned luxury venues with culturally competent facilitators who understand the specific nature of that harm. BLEU Restore (Track B) serves women of all backgrounds recovering from workplace burnout and nervous system dysregulation, hosted at vetted luxury wellness properties with structured facilitated programming layered on top of existing spa and wellness amenities.
BleuRetreats was founded by Cassandra Harrison. We bring the guests, the curriculum, and the credentialed facilitators — trauma-informed, background-checked professionals with cultural competency training. We partner with vetted venues that can hold the room; every property is screened against a documented rubric before any partnership begins. Every retreat is grounded in the belief that rest is not a luxury indulgence. It is a form of resistance, recovery, and return to self. Bleu is Resting — rest, held differently.
