Donna Marie Marino

FOUNDER OF RELEASE™ RETREAT

Donna Marie Marino, the visionary leading RELEASE™ Retreat, embraces a life steeped in armonía, italian for “harmony”. Diving into her world, she's also the creative force behind Armonía Life Design & Counseling, where, as a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, she guides individuals through life transitions, helping them rediscover their path to Armonía, the Italian ode to Harmony. Armonía is a philosophy weaving together the alignment of mind, body, and spirit to craft a life filled with love. With more than four decades of professional expertise in leadership, life coaching, spiritual direction, and therapeutic work, Donna embarks on a mission to accompany her clients with a warm, compassionate, direct, and authentic touch. Collaborating with Donna means co-creating a life imbued with 'passione,' purpose, and clarity. The genesis of RELEASE™ Retreat stems from this mission.

RELEASE™ Retreat beckons the high-achieving woman, inviting her to harmonize her life with purpose. In the embrace of Release™ Retreat, we transition from the unconscious auto-pilot to a life meticulously designed in conscious self-awareness and authenticity. Tailored as an exquisitely crafted wellness odyssey, The RELEASE™ Retreat unfolds with 'workshops,' 'trattamenti spa,' and adventures in health, wellness, and eco-tourism. An oasis for those leading bustling lives, be it personal or professional, seeking to unite with like-minded, 'anima affini,' soulful women.

It’s time to say yes . . . to yourself.
