    More about Marisol:
    Marisol Camacho, originally from the scenic Washington state, moved to the bustling tech world of San Francisco where she thrived for 4 years. The tech landscape offered insights but also led to burnout. It pushed me to discover my true calling: becoming a certified yoga teacher, then a certified life coach through iPEC and a Certified Trauma-Informed Facilitator. My journey wasn't just professional. After settling in sunny Orange County, life threw its curveballs with separation and divorce. Seeking a fresh start, I found solace in Mexico, which resonated deeply with my soul. I am now studying to become a licensed psychologist in Mexico.

    Whether it's pivoting from a draining job, igniting a business from your own narrative, navigating the rough tides of heartbreak, or simply seeking a new beginning that speaks to your heart, I'm here to walk alongside you. Together, we'll craft your vision, chase those dreams, and make your unique mark on the world. If not now, when?
