2018 marked a pivotal year for women's empowerment. At the Golden Globes, celebrities donned black to protest violence against women amid the Weinstein scandal, while Oprah Winfrey's inspiring feminist speech captivated audiences. Initiatives celebrating women proliferated—from Sweden's first women-only music festival in late 2017, designed as a 'safe space,' to Finland's bold project. One of its islands has been rebranded SuperShe, home to a luxury hotel complex opening in June 2018 exclusively for women. A private island paradise for ladies? It sounds like the ultimate getaway.
Project founder Kristina Roth conceived SuperShe after wellness retreats in Calabasas, California, where men's presence disrupted the serene atmosphere. 'When a cute guy was around, women would get their lipstick back on. The goal [of SuperShe Island] is to encourage us to focus on ourselves and leave our hormones alone,' she told the New York Post. Set to launch soon, interested guests can secure a premium all-inclusive membership for €3,250 per week. Admission requires a detailed application and a personal Skype interview with Roth herself. The experience emphasizes health, well-being, and life reflection. Tempted to visit SuperShe?
