Meet Your Space Holders
Alicia Buivis
At my core, I am a self-love advocate. I’m Alicia — a somatic and trauma-informed facilitator, Reiki Master Teacher, and heart-led leadership mentor devoted to empowering individuals to lead from presence, integrity, and self-trust. I hold a clinical health degree in Ayurveda and have a deep understanding of the mind, body, and energy connection. My work bridges nervous system regulation, somatic healing, energy alignment, and embodied leadership practices to help people move beyond fear-based patterns and into grounded, authentic authority. I guide leaders to reconnect with their bodies and inner wisdom so their decisions, boundaries, and vision are rooted in clarity rather than reactivity or external validation.
Through my work, clients shift out of burnout, people-pleasing, and self-doubt and into confident, heart-centered leadership. I lead heart-led leaders in living well-being and living well — and most importantly, in living a fiercely fulfilling life. The outcome is embodied empowerment: leaders who feel regulated, self-assured, and deeply aligned, capable of creating meaningful impact while honoring their well-being, values, and purpose.
Alexandrea is a trauma informed Certified Neuro-Linguistic Practitioner, specializing in subconscious beliefs and pain with an emphasis in Grief and Bereavement.
She is a third generation spirit intuitive and the founder of Micro Alchemy, a modality rooted in nervous system regulation, embodied awareness, and subtle energetic recalibration. Her work bridges somatic science, sound therapy, and archetypal astrology to support sustainable transformation through small, intentional shifts within the body and psyche. Alexandrea’s work creates a gentle yet powerful space for participants to release stored tension, recalibrate their nervous system, and remember their natural rhythm.
Through immersive sound journeys and intuitive somatic practices, Alexandrea invites participants to move energy, soften the mind, and return home to themselves. Her astrology chart readings offer grounded insight into life cycles, patterns, and purpose, helping individuals gain clarity and self-trust through cosmic perspective.

Deirdre Martin
Deirdre’s meals are designed to nourish the whole being—mind, body, and spirit—using fresh, wholesome ingredients that feel light, energizing, and deeply satisfying. Her food supports our daily movement practices, hikes, ceremonies, and integration time, helping the body feel supported as we expand, release, and reconnect.
More than just meals, Deirdre creates an experience—one that invites us to slow down, savor, and receive nourishment in its purest form. Sharing food together becomes a sacred pause, a moment of grounding, and a reminder that being cared for is part of the healing journey.
