Come home to yourself

It’s time to listen to your inner voice, and to recognize and appreciate your unique gifts. This retreat is your sanctuary to reflect, to dream, to explore and to reignite those passions that may have been dimmed by life’s hustle. It’s your journey back to you.

Design & embrace the habit of nurturing your mind, body & soul

Taking time for yourself to do the inner work is part of the journey to BE the best version of yourself. Tapping into your deepest desires requires TIME, self reflection and soul nourishment is required! During this intimate retreat, you’ll not only gain perspective and clarity, but will also experience the art of prioritizing you! We will take into account the whole person and learn to nourish the mind, body and soul. Combined with practices that soothe the soul and uplift the spirit, you’ll leave with a profound sense of self and the knowledge to continue nurturing yourself beyond perceived limitations.

Creativity & Play

The key to rediscovering yourself and your desires lies in play. We will hold the container for you to experiment without judgement as you explore. This will include creating daily rituals, setting intentions, releasing that which no longer serves you, envisioning your future self, experimenting with creativity, movement and all the things that light you up inside. We simply ask that you suspend judgement on yourself, and dive in with an attitude of openness, delight and anticipated breakthroughs for shifts and ultimately transformation.

Create a solid foundation for moving forward with your own purpose for this next stage of life

Embarking on a new life chapter can be daunting, but not when you’re surrounded by others who have walked before you and who are also looking to discover what’s next. ‘The Power of Pause: Rediscover” offers you that steadfast foundation. Here, you’ll gain clarity about your purpose and how to embrace it fully with intention in this next chapter of your life.

Her character is gracious in your journey of change and growth. 😍 She has truly changed my life for the better."

I have known Marcella for years and seen her own transformation as she had led and transformed 1000’s of women over the last 3 decades. She’s incredible at image consulting, leadership, spiritual development and so much more… she's got a bag of tools that are so wide in their array and so deep in what she offers! I recently hosted a high-level retreat for women looking for their next level of wealth. I had Marcella share what she teaches her clients in her Million Dollar lifestyle program and the women loved it! The feedback that I got was so incredible! They were able to see themselves at their next level of success. She made it fun, interactive and the participants could not stop talking about it! I came out the winner, because I look like the brilliant person who thought to have Marcella come facilitate, share and support these women in a big way. I would highly recommend attending or to have her facilitate a future retreat.

“What I most love about working with Marcella is that she shows me how to upscale my image AND keep my personal style. Her in-depth process of getting to truly know my fashion values, lifestyle and work habits made all the difference having my image align with my inner essence and my future goals. If you are someone committed to playing a bigger game, serving more people and making a greater impact with your gifts and talents, I highly recommend working with Marcella. She gives you the winning edge from the moment you step into the room!”

This is your moment. A pause in time dedicated just for you. Dive into a deep and meaningful

experience that promises clarity, connection, and rejuvenation.

Limited space available – and a personal session with Marcella awaits early birds.
