Why Guam. Why Now.

This is where it all started.

Rooted & Rising was always meant to be more than an event — it was meant to be a homecoming. When I made the decision to bring this experience to Guam, the name took on a meaning I didn't even plan for. I'm going back to my roots. And I'm bringing something powerful with me for the women I love most — my island sisters.

Rooted

Honoring where you come from — your love, your grief, your story, your ancestors, your late husband, the woman you have always been. You are not starting over. You are returning to yourself.

Rising

Stepping beyond survival. Reclaiming who you are. Answering the quiet, persistent call inside of you toward the woman you are becoming — not despite your loss, but because of everything it revealed.

This Experience Is For You If

You look fine. You are not fine.

You are showing up for everyone around you — and falling apart alone
You feel disconnected from the woman you used to be
You are exhausted from performing strength you don't always have
You are ready to stop surviving and start living — but you're not sure how
You know there is more for you, and something inside you is calling
You need a safe place to be fully seen — without having to perform

You don't have to have it figured out. You just have to be willing to answer the call.

The Experience

Two and a half days.
One beautiful shift.

Friday · June 12

An Evening of Connection

Begin the weekend with a gentle evening of connection, conversation and sisterhood. No pressures. No expectations. Just a safe space to breathe, be seen, and meet other women who truly understand the journey of loss and becoming.

✦ Receive a signed copy of Darlene's heartfelt new book, Love Again: A Widow's Journey to Love After Loss.

Saturday · June 13

Rooted

A full day of deep, intentional work. We go into the grief, the identity loss, the invisible weight — not to stay there, but to finally name it and begin to move through it.

Sunday · June 14

Rising

We step into what's next. Who you are becoming. The call that has been waiting for you. You leave this day knowing you are not just surviving — you are ready to live.

Your Host

Darlene Garcia‑Brown

I'm a widow, a wife, a Chamorro woman, and a coach. I know what it feels like to look completely fine on the outside while quietly falling apart on the inside. I know what it means to grieve a husband and lose yourself at the same time.

I also know what it means to find your way back — to yourself, to joy, to love again.

Rooted & Rising is the experience I wish someone had handed me. And bringing it home to Guam, to my island sisters, is something I have been called to do. I cannot wait to be in that room with you.

With love, Darlene 🌺
