I started hosting retreats when I discovered the deep connection between travel and coaching—two things that can help us discover, explore and transform.

As a certified coach, I've gotten better at listening to my inner wisdom and facing my fears, which has helped me evolve my career to where it is today. Now I give back the gift of coaching and travel because the two combined create an experience unlike any other-- inner work takes mental space and what better place to do that than a relaxing place away from the daily grind.

I have coached people to greater clarity and awareness of what's holding them back in life or work, I've helped several people get the job or promotion they wanted, I've coached executives to find more fulfillment at work and helped them tackle challenging team dynamics, and for many, I've helped them create real work-life balance in their lives, something most of us need desparately.

Formerly I had a career in higher education, and then moved onto corporate America working as an HR leader and building employee programs, events, and workshops all over the world-- while fueling my love for travel.

For years, I lived by a “work hard, play hard” mantra, chasing success and adventure across the globe. My 'play hard' vacation breaks are what taught me the power of stepping away from routine, immersing in new experiences, and reconnecting with myself.

Now, I create those transformative experiences for others—bringing together high-impact coaching, travel experiences, and wellness in thoughtfully curated retreats designed to inspire, restore, and awaken new possibilities.
