Welcome!
I’m Adina, a multidisciplinary practitioner, facilitator, therapist, coach, teacher and entrepreneur. I’m driven by a commitment to help others build rich, vibrant and sustainable tapestries of life, livelihood and community, anchored in ancestral wisdom and values.
On this journey I’ve taken big leaps. For over a decade I rose up through an exciting, successful career in the field of international economic and community development, working in twenty countries in sectors ranging from horticulture to hospitality to post-conflict recovery. I worked myself into the ground to prove my worth, with no concept of how to rest, relax, or enjoy life. I juggled addictions, avoided real relationships, and cultivated a facade of success and happiness to mask what was happening inside.
In my mid-30’s, burned out and craving deeper purpose, I left my full-time consulting career and began to transform.
Slowly, with the guidance of yoga and meditation teachers and healing arts practitioners, I began to decompress and revive.
I built and ultimately closed down a successful but extraordinarily challenging business, and started and failed to launch a non-profit. I wrote a novel that never got published. I began teaching yoga.
As I stripped away the veneer of success and accomplishment I uncovered a true identity—and began to experience real happiness. It took deep inner work and guidance from powerful teachers, healers, and coaches every step of the way.
