As an entrepreneur navigating significant life changes and milestones, Jacquie Verenka embarked on a transformative journey of healing and self-discovery. Through this process, she realized the vital importance of prioritizing self-care—a lesson that resonated deeply with many others she encountered along the way. Witnessing firsthand the struggles of those around her ignited a passion to create a space for healing and renewal.

Through these retreats, she aims to foster a community of healing and transformation.

Her retreats are designed not only to foster personal growth and well-being among participants but also to create a positive impact in the community.

Each retreat incorporates opportunities for participants to engage with and contribute to these initiatives, fostering a spirit of connection and shared purpose. Together, people can grow while uplifting their community.
