About Deanna Merlino - The Empowered Coach
Deanna Merlino - The Empowered Coach
Mission & Vision
My retreat business exists because women deserve spaces where they can finally slow down, feel safe, and reconnect with who they truly are. In a world that pulls us in a thousand directions, I create experiences that help women regulate their nervous systems, heal what’s been weighing on them, and remember their power. I do this work because transformation happens fastest in community - when we are held, supported, and witnessed. My purpose is to guide women back to their inner truth, their joy, their intuition, the divine birthright of abundance and their highest soul alignment so they can rise into the lives they’re meant for and have the extra resources to impact the collective however their heart sees fit.
