About Me

A little glimpse into who I am and what drives me every day

Me

A glimpse into who I am and what drives me every day.

Hi, my name is Katrina, and I truly love the work I do. From a background in the fitness industry to massage and now creating retreats, my passion has always been centred around helping others feel their best—physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

After leaving high school, I chose to study Nursing, encouraged by my mum who always said I was good with people. But it didn’t take long for me to realise that working in hospitals and within the system wasn’t where I was meant to be.

At 17, my world shifted when my mum was diagnosed with cancer. During those years, everything changed. What began as a difficult time became something deeply meaningful, as I stepped into the role of her carer. The skills I had learned through nursing created a beautiful bond between us—one I will always carry with me.

After she passed, I moved to the Gold Coast and discovered the fitness industry—and something just clicked. Helping people transform their health and wellbeing became my passion for the next 18 years. I worked across Port Douglas, in the Whitsundays, the UK, and Melbourne, growing from fitness instructor to personal trainer and into management, meeting incredible people along the way.

During this time, I became a mum to my first daughter and raised her as a single parent. Later, after moving to the Bellarine Peninsula, I welcomed my second daughter. Life shifted again, and I found myself navigating single motherhood once more—but I kept moving forward. I became a swimming instructor to work around school hours, always finding a way to balance motherhood and purpose.

Eventually, I felt a strong pull toward something deeper. I began studying Remedial Massage and quickly realised I wanted to create my own space in the wellness world. After gaining experience in some of the region’s top day spas, I developed my own unique style—one that blends relaxation, healing, and genuine connection.

As my journey evolved, so did my desire to understand the mind, body, and energy on a deeper level. I went on to study meditation, Reiki healing, and holistic coaching—expanding my knowledge and the way I support others in their own transformation.

But it was my retreat experience in Ubud, Bali that became the true turning point.

There was something about being immersed in that environment… the stillness, the connection, the energy of women coming together with open hearts. It allowed me to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with myself in a way I hadn’t experienced before.

In that space, something shifted.

I didn’t just feel relaxed—I felt transformed. I gained clarity, a deeper sense of self, and a knowing that this was the work I was meant to do on a much bigger level.

That experience didn’t just inspire me… it awakened something within me.

Now, I feel deeply called to create those same experiences for other women. To hold space for them to reconnect, to heal, to grow—and to realise what is truly possible for their lives.

Through my retreats, workshops, and offerings, I now teach the power of transformation through energy, frequency, and alignment—guiding women back to themselves.

This is more than just work to me…
it’s a calling.

And this is only the beginning of my journey...
