I believe it's time to shift the paradigm of how we actualize our human potential and transform, by integrating the roles of our bodies and brains through embracing how the Divine created us.

My journey began with a near-death experience at 17, leading to a profound awakening and a global pilgrimage. Over 23 years, I immersed myself in spiritual communities and extensive psychotherapy, including completing my MA in Psychology and becoming an Ordained Minister, to heal from early sexual abuse. However, it was my brother's severe Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) from a car accident that taught me about the brain's phenomenal capacity for healing.

As a result, for nearly a decade now, I've integrated Relational Neuroscience into my practice, successfully resolving many of my own trauma symptoms, witnessing firsthand, both in myself and my clients, how this approach truly liberates at the core.

This methodology enables me to facilitate genuine change in your brain and nervous system through a very specific, experiential method that releases limiting beliefs, heals past hurts, and unlocks your natural confidence, courage, and creativity. 

Ultimately, this frees you to create a life you genuinely love.

A Revolutionary Coaching Approach that

  • Cultivating Healthy, Satisfying Relationships
  • Developing Effective Communication Skills
  • Expanding Your Influence, Impact and Wealth 
  • Amplifying Your Personal Power and Inner Strength
  • Discovering Greater Purpose and Meaning




Through our work together, you can look forward to breakthroughs in:


01. Body image issues, including emotional eating or an excessive focus on beauty standards.

02. Relationship difficulties with romantic partners, family, and friends.

03. Problems related to money and self-worth, affecting their sense of purpose and their ability to manage wealth

These challenges are understandable in a society that has conditioned us to doubt and mistrust ourselves.

Self-leadership invites us to honestly reflect on the hidden beliefs that drive our actions, such as accepting less than we deserve or prioritizing others' needs over our own. 

If left unexplored, these subconscious beliefs can lead to behaviors that reinforce feelings of inadequacy, perpetuating a cycle of being undervalued and disempowered. 

As we grow more conscious of how our culture influenced the aspects we've judged as shortcomings, we realize that the fault lies in our culture, not ourselves.

Today, more than ever, we hold the power to make this shift.

why i’m not your typical coach

My advanced training in cutting-edge neuroscience, helps to rewire your brain and transform beliefs at their core (and no, this is not through thinking new thoughts) through a neural phenomenon called ‘memory reconsolidation’ which frees you to form new beliefs about yourself, others and the world.

I’m an ordained non-denominational minister and hold a spiritual perspective that honors each of us as souls while viewing our personal challenges as spiritual growth opportunities. 

As a woman with a significant trauma history myself, I too, have walked the path of healing from sexual abuse, complex PTSD, and shame. I understand firsthand what it takes to rise.

Very few are equipped with the depth of training, knowledge and life experience that I offer. This is not just my job – this is my purpose and soul’s calling.

What makes my work stand apart from the other 24,000 life coaches in the United States?

"Culture is to humans what water is to fish."

We're at a critical moment in human history where reshaping the collective biases of our culture is not just a possibility but a necessity.

The Dalai Lama once said, “Western women will save the world.”

Having lived in and traveled to 37 different countries, I've seen how Western women, with our access to freedom, education, and resources, are uniquely positioned to make deep systemic changes. 

However, our culture has molded us to undervalue the feminine, reinforcing inequality through daily reminders like the gender pay gap and the over-sexualizing and politicizing of women’s bodies. 

By doing our inner work, we lay the foundation for a new culture to emerge that respects all humans, animals, and the natural world. This inner change transforms cultural norms, grounding them in respect and compassion. 

This empowers us to create a culture where women and girls are equal to men and boys. 

when a woman finds her authentic voice,

and Everything Changes

she finds her power

at the heart of my vision is one where life on this planet is respected, honored and cared for

As women are valued and supported as equal to men, we become powerful catalysts for transformation, contributing to a kinder world through our influence. Whether it is by raising children who are loved, confidently leading with connection, compassion and collaboration, we inspire positive change in our homes, our communities and the global stage. Together, we shape a new possibility for our culture. 

One woman at a time.

My own journey has led me through the shadows of eating disorders, suicidal depression, and multiple rapes, resulting in low self-esteem, PTSD, acute insomnia, anxiety attacks, and a deep mistrust of others.

the personal meaning

Today, I reside in Montecito, CA, with my wonderful husband and our two kitties, Lilly and Spiritus. I experience profound purpose in my work with women.

Like everyone, I face moments of fear, stress, and anxiety. However, my commitment to my personal transformation continues to yield tremendous results. Not only am I able to compassionately support myself when I stumble, I’m also connected to the goodness within me and around me every day. For this, and the grace of Mother Father God, I am supremely grateful.

behind my work

I intimately understand the sacred journey women undertake to reclaim their personal power. Developing the inner strength necessary to assert ourselves in a world that often resists our truth and aims to diminish our voice and value is ongoing. However, together, we grow stronger.

a letter from gabriella

We as humans are at a turning point. The world doesn't need more information; it needs more connection—to ourselves, each other, and to this beautiful planet we call home.

For millennia, feminine power was revered for its nurturing and life-giving qualities. However, over time, that very power came to be seen as a threat. Throughout history, women faced punishment and even death for sharing their natural gifts of wisdom, beauty, and healing. Out of sheer survival, the feminine had to go into hiding, where it was safer to be invisible. For our great, great, great-grandmothers, it was not safe to stand up, speak out, let alone shine.

Today, we bear the burden of centuries of systematic erosion of feminine power, shaping the societal reflection in which women are

Dear Woman,

viewed. This distorted mirror casts a shadow upon our self-perception, impacting our mental well-being, relationships, and self-esteem. This has cost us greatly, by struggling to recognize our authentic selves in a mirror that dictates our female bodies, voices, and roles belong to others and their opinions of us. 

Sadly, this disconnect also applies to the patriarchal culture of our husbands, sons and brothers, who have lost touch with their humanity, tenderness, and capacity for care. Many are lost, caught in a negative cycle of dominance and aggression.

To break this spell, we must become aware of how we each carry these internalized beliefs and assumptions about what it means to be a woman and use our voices to speak our truth. It's time for a new mirror that reflects the light within women, not their shadows.

together we rise.

Imagine a cultural mirror that reflects the limitless possibilities with women and girls, where we see our innate goodness and use our gifts and talents to make the world better, which includes lifting our fellow men.

I'm here to support you in creating this new mirror, redefining what it means to be a woman, thus transforming our culture from within.

It’s time to stand in equal partnership with men, co-creating a promising future filled with compassion, collaboration, and connection.
