clients showing love

“Working with Ashley was an absolute gift. She was already on the ground before we arrived in Costa Rica and had everything prepared for our guests—often anticipating needs we didn’t even realize we’d have. She brought ideas and insights from her deep experience that elevated the retreat in ways I couldn’t have imagined. Because of her, I was able to focus fully on teaching and connecting with my attendees, knowing they were being cared for in the best possible way. Not only did I love working with her, but every single participant raved about how supported and cared for they felt. I can say with confidence that my retreat was more impactful and seamless because of Ashley. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone leading retreats—you won’t want to do another without her.”
