About Karma

For more than two decades, I’ve dedicated my life to helping people create vibrant health, balanced lifestyles, and meaningful transformation. As a certified personal trainer, holistic nutrition coach, and wellness mentor, I’ve guided hundreds of clients toward their healthiest, most aligned selves—through mindful movement, clean nutrition, and sustainable daily habits that truly last.

Over the years, my work has evolved beyond physical wellness into something deeper. Four years ago, my own personal healing journey led me to discover the powerful world of Breathwork. What began as a practice to restore my own nervous system, calm anxiety, and reconnect with my heart has grown into a calling. Today, as a certified Breathwork facilitator, I help others access that same profound inner peace, clarity, and renewal.

I’m also a proud wife and mom, which has deeply shaped how I approach wellness—not as a quick fix, but as a way of living that’s practical, soulful, and rooted in real life.

My family and I fell in love with Nosara, Costa Rica over a decade ago. This jungle-meets-beach town has a magical energy—lush nature, vibrant wildlife, grounding stillness, and breathtaking ocean views that never get old. Four years ago, we made Nosara our part-time home, living here for half the year and embracing the slower, richer rhythm of life that this place inspires.

We built our private 10,000 sq ft villa atop the mountains overlooking the Pacific Ocean—a place where barefoot jungle living meets luxurious comfort. It’s where we gather with family, breathe deeper, and watch the sun melt into the sea each evening. And now, I’m thrilled to open our home to retreat guests, sharing both the beauty of Costa Rica and the life-changing power of wellness, breathwork, and intentional living.

This isn’t just a retreat location—it’s the embodiment of everything I love: health, connection, nature, luxury, and soulful transformation. I can’t wait to welcome you here.
