Every Pillars experience is a lesson worth crossing the world to learn. It's woven into every detail. Every meal shared around the table. Every morning. Every conversation. Every experience. The women who join often don't realize how deeply they've absorbed it until they're home again, suitcase unpacked, back in their routines. 

Saint Lucia was about connection.
Portugal taught us to savor.
Colombia reminded us to wonder.
The destination is simply where we go to learn it.

Hi, I'm Alyssa. I've traveled to more than 50 countries, taken solo trips across the world, gotten lost in places I couldn't pronounce, and learned that the best parts of travel are rarely the ones you can plan for. They're the conversations that change you, the people who expand your world, the lessons you carry home long after your suitcase is unpacked.

I created Pillars while pregnant with my daughter, Lola. These experiences were never just about beautiful destinations. They're about building a beautiful life.

"It healed something in me that I didn't know needed healing. Through being in the company of so many amazing women I found myself again. How Alyssa managed to do all that in one week, I will never know, but I am forever grateful."

"There is something so freeing about not having to plan anything at all. Everything is taken care of and all you have to do is show up and be present."

"If you want to experience belly laughing at the kitchen table until 6am, Pillars is the experience for you."

"Alyssa is like your second mom. You can tell how much intention and love goes into every part of the experience."
