WELCOME TO

RELEASE™ Retreat is for the high-achieving person who desires to be in alignment in creating a life that they love.

During RELEASE™ Retreat, we will journey from living life on unconscious and chaotic auto-pilot to a life intentionally and consciously designed in self-awareness and authenticity. We will truly step into a life that is fully aligned in harmony with your highest path, power, and potential!

The RELEASE™ Retreat Journey

From Chaos

To Harmony

& Highest Potential

The RELEASE™ Method

Through a series of experiential opportunities, excursions, yoga, breathwork, meditation, and workshops, this transformational journey will guide you to release self-limiting beliefs, inner-critic talk, conditioned responses, resentments, and more. You will return home as your most authentic self, released from the confines of living life on “auto-pilot.”

“Donna leads you to your own empowerment and guides you to find it for yourself. She does it in a way that you feel heard and cared about. It's very gentle, but also direct. She’s amazing.“

“The moment I met her, I just knew Donna was the perfect guide for me. I’ve done therapy once before and learned that it’s important to find the right person to have that organic connection to feel safe. Donna was amazing. The way she does things is natural, and it makes you feel free to speak. You can tell your story. “
“I've worked through a lot of the issues that I was going through thanks to Donna. She helped me do a complete 180 and turn my life around. She guided and encouraged me to explore who I am, because I’d never really gotten to know myself.“
