Meet Your Retreat Leaders
Jacquie’s passion for wellbeing began at an early age following the loss of her mother, which ignited her spiritual journey to search for meaning within herself. Throughout the years, she has pursued various avenues towards personal development, including a Masters Degree in Counseling, Level 1 & 2 Holistic Life Coaching, a three-month personal retreat in Spain, and multiple silent retreats globally. For over two decades, she has been guiding and coaching individuals and groups, and teaching mindfulness for over 10 years. Additionally, she leads monthly women’s circles, creating a supportive space for women to connect and grow.

As a testament to the transformative power of mindfulness, Jacquie is a living example of how it has helped her manage her emotions and overcome daily stressors, start her own business, and be the mother she has always wanted to be. It has positively impacted her family, friends, and clients’ lives, and she is passionate about sharing this with others to help them feel more joyful and connected to themselves.
When not working, Jacquie enjoys cooking plant-based meals, rollerblading, dancing, and reading. She also loves watching Ted Lasso, hanging out with like-minded people, being in nature, and traveling.

She went on to study Divine Mother in the Priestess Rising Magdalene Rose Mystery School where she connected deeply to her sisters all over the world and began to feel our ancestral wounding and understand the change this world needs to propel the divine feminine. During this time, she awakened her Wild Woman Archetype and deepened her understanding of her authentic self. She learned the ancient art of Women’s Circles and the power that women feel and radiate when in circle together. Her future lies in holding sacred space for herself and women anywhere who desire to deepen their connection to their true authentic selves without apology.
