Curious by nature, inspired by spirit.

My Philosophy

Guided by curiosity and inspired by the spirit of exploration, I believe that we do the best we can with the resources available to us. We don’t know what we don’t know—but when our awareness expands and we are given the tools and experiences to engage with life differently, it becomes our responsibility to create the shifts needed for change.

Consistency, curiosity, and practice—along with self-accountability—are key to growth. Change isn’t about instant transformation; it’s about engaging with life in a way that fosters awareness and intentional action. Through this process, we move beyond conditioned responses and step into a more conscious, connected, and balanced way of being.

There is no greater journey than the one that you must take to discover all of the mysteries that lie within you." - Michelle Sandlin

About Donicka

My Style

My style is collaborative, engaging, and deeply reflective, creating a space that merges existential insight with embodied somatic awareness, that goes beyond intellectual understanding to emphasize the experience and integration of awareness on a deeper level. Curiosity is at the heart of my practice-as it guides us towards a more open and engaged relationship with the physical, emotional, and spiritual selves, fostering a more embodied and authentic way of engaging with life.

My Wellness Practices

My wellness practices reflect how I engage with life—with openness and curiosity about living with greater awareness, balance, and intention in everyday moments. Hiking, being in nature, physical exercise, meditation, and quality time with friends ground me, offering space to reset and reorient to what matters.

Managing overwhelm and daily stress is a human experience—none of us are immune to it. In recognition of this, I set daily intentions to guide me forward, keeping me focused and aligned. A simple yet powerful question I ask myself each morning is, "What is it that I wish to experience today?" This keeps me accountable for what I am responsible for, rather than focusing on what is outside my control. From there, I make a conscious plan to align my actions with that intention—because intention without action. just remains as another passing thought.

My Values

I am guided by values of curiosity, authenticity, and a commitment to holistic growth.

Curiosity inspires me to explore new perspectives, embrace change, and keeps me engaged with the world as I seek new experiences and insights that deepen my connection with life, both personally and professionally.

Authenticity is central to my approach—I believe that living in alignment with our true selves and connecting with our passions leads to greater fulfillment and enhances our overall wellbeing.

Holistic growth is my commitment to nurturing a balanced life by embracing the full spectrum of the human experience- through the mind, body, and spirit, and emotional connection. We are so much more than the symptoms we present.
