~Step Away From the Role~
You’re the one everyone relies on.
The leader. The problem-solver. The one carrying the pressure while everyone else depends on you to keep going.
But somewhere inside the constant responsibility, you disappeared into the role.
OFF DUTY is a private luxury leadership retreat created for women in senior living and healthcare leadership who need more than time off. For 5 days and 4 nights in Tulum, Mexico, just 16 women step away from the noise, operational pressure, and nonstop demands of leadership to reconnect with themselves outside the role.
~What Awaits You~
Leadership Coaching & Identity Work
Breakthrough coaching sessions focused on leadership patterns, boundaries, identity outside the title, and sustainable success. And it will not end Here.
Immersive Experiences
Private cenote experiences, sound healing, luxury excursions, fireside conversations, and intentional downtime designed to help you disconnect from constant responsibility.
Real Conversations
No corporate sponsors. No surface-level networking. Just women in healthcare and senior living leadership having the conversations they rarely get to have out loud.
Collaboration & Strategy
Led by Jennifer Ebert alongside collaborator Kiera DesChamps, creator of the You Are the Brand framework, OFF DUTY blends leadership development with real-life transformation.
~Why This Retreat~
Changing jobs is not always the answer.
Many high-performing women know how to survive while quietly running on empty.
OFF DUTY was built to interrupt that cycle.
You will leave with:
-
Stronger boundaries
-
A clearer way of operating
-
A personalized action plan
-
A renewed connection to yourself outside the role
-
A network of women who understand the world you live in
~Reserve Your Spot
This experience is intentionally limited to 16 women to create depth, privacy, and meaningful connection.
Not a vacation.
Not another conference.
A true leadership immersion for women who are always needed — and rarely off duty.
No one needs anything from you here...
This Work Didn’t Come From Theory
Let me be real with you.
I was never brought into this world to be normal, quiet, or play small—and deep down, I bet you weren't either.
I grew up in a foster home—not as a foster child, but as the kid whose parents were foster parents. Our house was full of energy, chaos, and connection. For 17 years, I was part of a blended, multicultural, beautifully complicated family. We weren't picture-perfect, but we were real. And real has power.
I'll be honest: I was that kid with attitude, jealousy, and a fire I didn't know how to use yet. But that fire turned into purpose. I saw firsthand what it looks like when people are discarded by the system. I watched my foster siblings get told they'd never amount to anything. I saw the pain. And I also saw what happened when someone—anyone—believed in them.
My dad taught me that who you are doesn't depend on your past, your skin, your status, or your scars. He believed every person mattered. In a world that saw us as a mess of colors, we saw ourselves as a prism—one strong, unbreakable light.
That belief shaped everything that came next.
I Built a Career I Loved.
In 2001, I became my grandfather's caregiver. For four years, I learned what it meant to show up for someone you love—even when it's hard, even when you're exhausted, even when no one sees the weight you're carrying.
After he passed in 2005, I channeled that experience into a career helping other families navigate the same journey. I earned a Master's degree in Healthcare Marketing, Business Administration, Communication, and Project Management. I became a Senior Living Marketing and Admissions Director.

Are these retreats for you?
If you’re a senior living or healthcare leader who’s been functioning under nonstop pressure for far too long… then yes, this experience was built for you.
This is for you if:
-
You care deeply about the work, but the constant demands are draining your energy, focus, and sense of self.
-
You’re the one everyone depends on, yet rarely feel like anyone is checking on you.
-
You can’t remember the last time your mind, phone, or responsibilities were fully turned off.
-
You’re mentally exhausted, emotionally disconnected, or running on autopilot while still expected to lead well every day.
-
You know something needs to shift, but you’ve had no real time to step back and think clearly enough to change it.
If that feels a little too familiar… then yes.
OFF DUTY was created with women like you in mind.
I’m Jennifer Ebert, founder of Journey 2 Transformation, and I work with senior living and healthcare leaders who are carrying the pressure of leadership, team dynamics, operational demands, and the emotional weight that comes with being the person everyone depends on.
With more than 25 years of experience in healthcare, senior living operations, marketing, admissions, recruiting, and caregiver support, I understand the realities leaders face every day — managing staff challenges, difficult family conversations, constant problem-solving, and the expectation to keep performing no matter how much is on their plate.
My coaching focuses on practical leadership development, communication, emotional sustainability, and helping leaders create healthier boundaries so they can lead effectively without losing themselves in the process. I also work with teams and organizations on leadership communication, culture, staff support, and professional development.
While OFF DUTY is my flagship immersive retreat experience, my work extends beyond retreats through leadership coaching, speaking, training, and team development designed specifically for high-responsibility professionals.
This work isn’t about stepping away from leadership. It’s about learning how to lead in ways that work.
