I know from my own experiences with my health that took a massive turn with illness while life was "lifing" in a hard way, my spirit was broken, and just all around burnout how to rise up from the ashes like the phoenix.
I am a Texas girl through and through. You can find me on the dirt roads chasing sunsets, the moon and the stars in my topless Jeep with my road dogs and a very large virgin adult beverage with the music up loud.

Our Story
Our story began with a shared love for Depeche Mode, a band whose music brought three soul sisters together. This once in a lifetime chance meeting ignited an instant bond with Monica Lee and Kariann back in 2014 and they have been inseparable ever since. Kariann was the catalyst to introduce Myshellei to Monica Lee and viola - instant tribe of 3!
From our initial connection, we discovered a shared passion for holistic wellness, natural living, and the peace that dancing with intention can bring.
Inspired by our common dreams and our own issues with health in the past that we overcame, we decided to create something extraordinary: a tribe dedicated to crafting all-natural products for wellness, providing transformative coaching, hosting rejuvenating retreats, and celebrating life through dance. Each of us brought our unique talents to the table, blending our skills to form a powerful, unified vision.
Our handcrafted, organic products are designed to nurture and illuminate the body, mind, and soul, which also reflects our commitment to Mother Earth and sustainability.
Our coaching sessions offer personalized guidance to help others achieve balance and fulfillment, while our retreats provide immersive experiences that promote healing, growth, awareness and connection.
Dancing under the stars and the moon to light our way became a signature element of our gatherings, symbolizing the freedom, joy and peace we aim to bring into people's lives. Through every product we create, every session we lead, and every retreat we host, we weave in the same spirit of togetherness, community and inspiration that first brought us together.
Today, our dream has become a vibrant and colorful reality. Our tribe continues to grow, standing together hand in hand by a shared mission to help others rise up and transform. Join us on this journey of wellness, creativity, and celebration to discover the magic that happens when soul sisters follow their hearts and dreams come true.
Our Retreats
Imagine stepping into a serene sanctuary where the worries of daily life fade away, and a journey of transformation and renewal begins. Life is happening so fast around us and we lose track of time and ourselves. No time to breathe much less appreciate a quiet moment. Let go of your worries, throw out the time factor and rushing around and walk into something new that perhaps might be out of your comfort zone. These retreats are designed to nurture wellness, facilitate the release of past hurts and traumas, and promote holistic wellness through a blend of mindfulness practices, nutrition, and ecstatic, star-lit celebrations.
Throughout your stay, experienced facilitators guide you through a variety of mindfulness practices. Daily sessions of meditation, releasing body movements, sound baths and breathwork help cultivate a deep sense of inner peace and presence. These practices are tailored to support the transformation and releasing process, encouraging you to let go of past traumas and embrace a more peaceful state of being.
Another component of the retreat is the focus on nutrition. Gourmet meals, prepared with fresh, organic ingredients, are designed to nourish your body and mind. Nutritional workshops and personalized consultations provide insights into how food can support your healing journey and overall wellness. By embracing a balanced and mindful approach to eating, you’ll learn how to fuel your body in a way that enhances your vitality and well-being.
The retreats also emphasize the importance of releasing past hurts and traumas. Through a combination of therapeutic workshops, emotional release techniques, and facilitators holding space for you, you’ll find a safe and compassionate place to explore and say goodbye to negative emotions. Monica Lee, Kariann and Myshellei are skilled in creating an environment where you can feel seen, heard, and understood, allowing for deep personal growth and transformation.
As night falls, the retreat takes on a magical ambiance with evenings spent dancing under the stars. This nightly ritual invites you to connect with your body and spirit through movement, set to the backdrop of soulful, vibrant music and the natural symphony of the night. Dancing under the open sky becomes a liberating and cosmic experience. This in itself will give all who participate a sense of unity and celebration.
Every aspect of these retreats, from the tranquil setting and mindful practices to the nourishing food and star-lit dancing, is carefully designed to support your journey of transformation. By integrating wellness, mindfulness, nutrition, and joyful expression, these retreats offer a holistic approach to healing and renewal, leaving you feeling rejuvenated, empowered, and deeply connected to yourself and others.

Nutritional Coaching
We offer a coaching program that goes beyond traditional nutrition advice to offer a transformative journey for your body, mind, and soul. This holistic approach to nutrition coaching is designed to empower you with the knowledge and tools you need to achieve optimal wellness, creating physical well being, mental clarity, and emotional balance.
Body Transformation
The foundation of the program is a personalized nutrition plan tailored to your unique needs and goals. You'll work closely with a certified nutrition coach who will help you understand the importance of nutrient-dense foods, proper hydration, and balanced meals. Through one-on-one sessions, you’ll learn how to incorporate a variety of fresh, organic fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats into your diet. This plan not only aims to improve your physical health, enhance energy levels, and support weight management, but also to prevent chronic diseases and promote overall longevity.
Mind Enhancement
Nutrition plays a crucial role in brain health and cognitive function. Your coach will guide you in selecting foods that boost brain power, improve memory, and enhance mood. You'll explore the benefits of omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and other brain-boosting nutrients found in foods like fish, nuts, seeds, berries, and leafy greens. Mindful eating practices, such as savoring each bite, recognizing hunger cues, and enjoying meals without distractions, will be emphasized to foster a healthier relationship with food and reduce stress.
Soul Nurturing
Beyond physical and mental benefits, this program recognizes the spiritual aspect of nutrition. You’ll be encouraged to choose foods that are ethically sourced and produced, aligning your eating habits with your values and building a deeper connection to the earth. The coaching will include guidance on creating meaningful mealtime rituals, preparing and sharing meals with loved ones, and exploring the emotional and spiritual connections to food. This approach helps elevate your mood, promote relaxation, and bring joy to your eating experience.
Holistic Integration
To achieve true transformation, the program integrates nutrition with other wellness practices. You’ll receive guidance on incorporating regular physical activity, ensuring adequate hydration, and prioritizing restful sleep. This holistic approach ensures that all aspects of your well-being are addressed, creating a balanced lifestyle.
Personalized Support
Throughout the program, you’ll receive personalized support and accountability from your nutrition coach. Regular check-ins, progress tracking, and adjustments to your plan will ensure that you stay on track and make continuous improvements. The coach will also provide education on reading food labels, meal planning, and cooking techniques to empower you to make informed choices and maintain your healthy habits.
Promoting nutrition to transform your body, mind, and soul through coaching is about creating lasting, positive changes in your life. This comprehensive program offers a personalized and holistic approach to wellness, helping you achieve physical health, mental clarity, and emotional balance. With the guidance and support of a dedicated nutrition coach, you’ll embark on a transformative journey that nourishes every aspect of your being, leading to a more vibrant, joyful, and balanced life.
