The Power of Pink
A fully sponsored retreat for breast
cancer survivors. Born in the
Laurentians of Quebec. Now taking the
world stage.
• All expenses paid for every survivor • 25 guests, one unforgettable week • Destination revealed with our host partner
More than a getaway
Breast cancer survivors are warriors. When treatment ends, the journey does not. The Power of Pink is a life-changing, all-expenses-paid escape where our Pink Ladies and Thunderbirds connect, rejuvenate, and rediscover their spark for life.
As a sponsor, you help us turn the world pink. You create an experience these survivors will carry for the rest of their lives, and you place your brand at the heart of a global movement for empowerment and renewal.
From the Laurentians to the world
Where it began
The Power of Pink was founded in the Greater Laurentians of Quebec. Our first retreats in Sainte-Agathe-des-Monts brought survivors together with more than twenty local sponsors, healers, chefs, and makers who gave everything they had.
Where we are going
Now we are taking the retreat international. Survivors from Canada, the United States, and around the world, gathered at a destination worthy of everything they have overcome. Your partnership decides where in the world we light up next.

The reality of survivorship
Little aftercare
Minimal funding and few programs focus on life after treatment.
Financial strain
Survivors face high medical bills and lost income, often for years.
Emotional weight
Many live with PTSD, fear of recurrence, and a deep sense of isolation.
Shaken confidence
Physical scars and ongoing care take a quiet toll on self-worth.
Picture a survivor dancing under a sky she has never seen before,her
laughter carrying across the water. Picture women from different countries
sharing stories of resilience, hope, and purpose. Your support says to every
one of them:
You are seen.
You are celebrated.
You are unstoppable.

Who is behind the movement
The founder
Catherine Kontos
Founder of RetreatBoss, Catherine is an award-winning retreat consultant, wellness advocate, and breast cancer survivor. Her philanthropic retreats have gone viral and drawn media attention across Canada. The Power of Pink is her most ambitious yet: a celebration of survivors as empowered women stepping into their next chapter.
Catherine is also the author of Soul Shaker: A Whirlwind Awakening, the story of her journey through stage 3 breast cancer. In the same season, she went through a divorce, lost her business, and became a single mother overnight. Yet she did more than survive. Working from her laptop in bed, between surgeries and treatments, she built a new business that would go on to win awards.
