August 30-September 4 - This is For The Women Ready To Laugh, Dance, & Glow Up! Imagine waking up on a gorgeous island in the heart of Greece, looking at the sunrise above turquoise waters. You feel the warm, ocean-scented breeze on your skin & your heart feels more expansive & playful than ever.

Something deep in your soul immediately feels you’ve been prepared for this very moment….for this sacred initiation & transformation into the next level of your JOYFUL life.As you're surrounded by a circle of inspiring, like-hearted women, you enter a sacred space for deep connection, playfulness, and celebration of life and sisterhood. In this supportive and non-judgmental space, you feel safe to share your dreams, desires, and inner truths with other women on a similar journey of growth and self-discovery.

Each day you get to experience yoga, belly dance, women's circles, and workshops—designed to uplift, inspire, and empower you to live a life you absolutely dream of! You gather around a fire with your new besties. Together, we cry, celebrate, laugh, dance, and create our dreams. Eating delicious Greek food, going on boat rides, shopping, hiking, laughing, swimming, and exploring. You feel the clarity, courage, and joy that’s been within you all along. You move like the woman you were born to be— free, radiant, embodied, joyful, and loved.

The best part? You return home on a flight, but this time it’s even better. You’re arriving as a woman who knows who she is and loves her life. Your purpose is clear, your energy is magnetic. You'll return doing more of what you love - like hosting dinner parties with your girlfriends, going on road trips, listening to your favorite podcast in the park with a green juice in your hand.Whether you’re building your dream business, calling in your soul partner, moving across the world or simply claiming a more simple and peaceful life, this is for you. You return home glowing, playful, alive, and lit up from the inside. You’re not just dreaming about the life you want, you’re dancing in it!*Unlike most retreats that host 20 people+.

This retreat has LIMITED spots, and is a small group of women (maximum of 12 participants) which allows for close connection.

August 25th–31st - Nestled on the peaceful coast of Greece’s Peloponnesian Peninsula, this intimate 7-day, 6-night retreat offers the chance to step away from daily life and reconnect with yourself.

Through Kambo ceremonies, guided breathwork, mindful yoga, and deep inner work, you’ll be supported in releasing, healing, and rebalancing — all in a schedule that blends powerful practices with genuine rest.

 

With nourishing meals, cozy accommodations, and a small group of just 8–12 participants, this retreat is designed to hold you safely while you reset and refresh.

 

There’s something otherwordly beautiful about summer in Greece—the light, the sea, the warmth of the people, and the timeless beauty of its landscapes. But beyond the travel brochures and Instagram reels lies another layer of allure: the Greece we’ve fallen in love with through cinema.

 

Over the years, filmmakers from around the world have chosen Greece as the backdrop for unforgettable scenes—turning real locations into cultural touchstones and cinematic daydreams. Whether you’re planning your next getaway or simply daydreaming from afar, here’s a look at some iconic films set in Greece that just might inspire your summer in a new way.

Parenting can be both rewarding and overwhelming—especially when your child is facing emotional, behavioral, or educational challenges. I’m here to support you through it.

With a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and an MSc in Children and Adolescent Mental Health, I bring over 7 years of hands-on experience as a special educator, working closely with children and families across a wide range of needs. My expertise includes ADHD, learning and developmental difficulties, and all aspects of education-related support.

As a musician, I often incorporate elements of music therapy into my approach, particularly when working with neurodivergent children or those who express themselves creatively. Additionally, my experience with the CSII (International Institute of Cyber Security) enables me to advise parents on online safety, screen time, and managing their child’s digital life responsibly.

I am bilingual and offer sessions in Greek & English, making support more accessible and comfortable for families from different cultures and language backgrounds.

The first session is free, a welcoming space to connect, share your concerns, and explore how I can support you and your child.

Feel free to reach out with any questions or to arrange a session. I look forward to working with you!

Born and raised in Athens, Greece with origins in the Greek diaspora of Africa, I bring more than 20 years of experience in corporate communication and international relations to coaching. As a Communication and Embodied Leadership Coach my approach focuses on the whole person, heart and mind, body and soul, through a unique blend of storytelling, well-being practices and a compassionate presence. 

 

For me true leadership isn’t just about the mindset, nor is it a job title. It is about expanding the capacity to come home to yourself over and over again, in the midst of the storm.  It is a way of being that extends beyond the realm of words, vibrates through your presence and allows you to remain calm under pressure. True leadership radiates confidence, resilience and vision.

 

I work with anyone who wants to get out of the box they are currently in, whether it is a job, a relationship, or the place one lives. I inspire and encourage individuals who find themselves at a crossroad or in transition to slow down and choose from the heart, not only from the head. I make space for people from all walks of life to reignite their spark and create a life they love.
