Yoga ✺ Breathwork ✺ Cacao ✺ Love ✺ Freedom People come into your life at the right time and you often find yourself in the right place (even if it seems random) - there are no mistakes in the universe and there is a reason why you are reading this page right now. If you want to know who I am professionally the answer would be yoga teacher, breathwork facilitator, author and retreat organiser. But if you want to know who I am beneath those titles, the answer would be:

I am a human being, on a spirtual journey - and so are YOU! Depression, severe anxiety, self harming, self sabotage, wanting to end my life... I was 18 years old and totally lost. This is when yoga entered my life and over the next 10 years I have been building myself up. One day at a time, I kept choosing to fight for my life, I looked for light over dark and I'm so grateful that I am still here. Today I teach yoga and breathwork classes, online and in person and organise and run international retreats all over the world. My role is to gently remind you that you are the creator of your life. At any given moment you can rewrite the story, let go of your limited beliefs and choose to let your inner light shine! I look forward to seeing you in class or on a retreat. Much love to you and thank you for being here.

Have you noticed how your energy softens the moment you’re near water? You don’t even need to enter it sometimes. Just dipping your feet in can be enough.

Maybe you’ve always called yourself a water baby.
Maybe holidays are only holidays if they involve the sea.
Maybe you feel more yourself in a swimsuit than dressed up for anything else.
Maybe you’ve caught yourself staring at the ocean thinking, I could just stay here forever.

Your breath slows down, your mind stops racing, and you feel a little bit more you.

Have you ever wondered why?

Your inner child loves water because water is where we first felt held. In the womb, we floated safely, without having to do anything or be anyone.In the warmth of your mother’s womb, you received everything you needed to develop, grow, and feel nourished and cared for.

Your body remembers that version of you. And water helps activate that memory and bring it to the surface. This memory lives in your nervous system. So when you step into water, something inside you recognises it, even if your mind can’t explain it.

That’s why you might feel emotional by the sea for “no reason”.
Why tears come.
Why joy feels closer.
Why you suddenly want to play, float, dive, or just lie there doing nothing.

Your inner child wants to feel.
To move.
To trust.
To be curious.
To play.

And water gives them the permission to do that.

This is also why experiences like swimming with dolphins, floating near whales, or being in the presence of whale sharks feel so deeply touching. These experiences are not magical because they’re exotic or another “bucket list” item, far from it. They are magical because they bypass the adult mind and speak directly to the body and spirit.

Animals don’t ask who you are, what you do, or how strong you’re being.
They meet you exactly where you are.

And your inner child recognises that safety instantly.

When you allow the water to hold you, you are invited to soften into exactly who you are in that momen. Presence. Truth. Just you.

There are many places in the world where you can swim with whale sharks, but not all of them offer ethical or respectful encounters.

Mafia Island is different. Here, whale sharks are not chased, touched, fed, or exploited for tourism. They come naturally, and encounters are carefully regulated to protect their space, their rhythm, and their wellbeing.

This respect for marine life is one of the main reasons we choose Mafia Island. When animals are honoured rather than exploited, the experience becomes calmer, deeper, and truly meaningful for everyone involved.

If you feel called to meet the ocean’s elders in a way that feels respectful, safe, and aligned, send me a DM or tap the link in my bio to learn more. 🐋🌊✨

When I decide to create a retreat, there is always something that calls me first.

Sometimes it’s a place.
Sometimes it’s an animal.
Sometimes it’s an unexplainable inner knowing that says: you must go here… and you must not go alone.

The journeys we take together are never ego-driven or about ticking locations off a bucket list. They are about collective and personal healing. Upgrading. Activating. Becoming MORE of who you came here to be.

I have been feeling the Azores for a while now.

I first remember watching a documentary about the whaling industry there (which ended in 1987) on a plane back from Tenerife after a sailing trip. Something in my heart stayed with it.
Then, during my travels in Australia, I met a marine biologist who lives in the Azores who told me about the whales and dolphins that still live there year-round. My curiosity deepened.
Then one day, I received an email from a venue in the Azores inviting me to host a retreat with them.

The call kept getting stronger.

I knew I would go one day. I thought maybe 2027 because this year’s calendar already felt full. But the thing with a divine calling is that it doesn’t whisper forever. At some point, it becomes so clear you can no longer say “later.”

It had to be now.

And the message I received was equally clear:
I was not meant to go alone.
This was to be a collective mission. A group of like-minded souls travelling together with intention.

And so, the Azores August retreat was born 🤍

Of course, it is taking place during the eclipses... I didn't choose it... it was the only week available! The Divine Always Has A Plan!

This will be an energetically amplified time, and I have no doubt our days in the Azores will be filled with awe and wonder, deep healing, deep shedding, and powerful spiritual upgrades.

Last year’s Mermaid Retreat was one of the most powerful weeks of my life.

True sisterhood. Support. Love. Real authenticity. Open hearts, honest tears, deep laughter, and women allowing themselves to be fully seen. There is a kind of magic that activates when women come together in a safe, heart-led space.

I watched women arrive unsure, guarded, carrying stories about being “too much” or “not enough”… and leave more expressed, more connected, more themselves. Each mermaid girl was held instead of judge and together we remembered who we were before the world told women who to be.

It’s hard to put into words the depth of what happens when we gather like this, in the water, in nature, and in truth. If you’ve ever felt the pull towards this work, this sisterhood, mermaids, dolphins, or a deeper connection with water and self… Sabrina and I are hosting a live Call to the Mermaids Gathering, where we’ll share more about the retreat, what really unfolds inside it, and whether it might be right for you.

If your heart feels a little curious reading this, you’re warmly invited 🤍

What if the parts of yourself you judge are actually trying to help?

In the latest episode of Mask Off & Exhale, I’m joined by psychotherapist Monica Kim-Taylor for a deeply grounding conversation about Internal Family Systems (IFS) and what it means to truly meet ourselves with compassion.

We explore the idea that we are not one fixed identity, but a system of parts. Even the parts we resist or fear have a role and an intention.

Together, we discuss:
✨ How understanding our inner world can soften shame and reduce conflict.
✨ Why curiosity, rather than force, is the most powerful tool for healing.
✨ How to lead our inner system with compassion rather than trying to “fix” ourselves.

If you’ve ever felt torn between different versions of yourself or struggled with perfectionism, this episode is a gentle invitation to slow down and listen.

Some things in life you simply have to experience 🤍

No video, no photo, no words will ever truly capture what it feels like to be in Sataya, floating in the dolphins’ home, surrounded by the Red Sea, and remembering who you really are.

The energy of Sataya’s coral reef is very specific. It’s not just a reef, it is a portal. And Sataya calls, and if Sataya calls you, you feel her call, and it’s impossible to turn away.

Sataya is the place where I found myself, my purpose, and my tribe. It’s my home… and for many who come here, it becomes theirs too.

Over the past four years, I’ve had the honour of guiding 100+ beautiful souls here, not just to swim with wild dolphins, but to journey back home to themselves. To find their voice, their power, their purpose, to rediscover who they are ALL over again 🐬💜

This is more than a retreat.
It’s a return back home to yourself.

I don’t say this lightly… it WILL change your life. Redefine your priorities. Shift your outlook. Even transform how you see yourself and your identity.

I feel deeply grateful that this is my work and my path 🤍

If your heart feels the call, maybe it’s your time.
Together with the dolphins we look forward to welcoming you in Sataya this year 🐬🌊

Ocean waves of love,
Maja

Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do…
is simply be YOU.

If you’ve ever felt “too much,” too emotional, too sensitive, too deep… this space is for you.

Sabrina and I are holding a live activation call for women who are ready to reconnect with their truth, their voice, and the parts of themselves they were taught to hide. So many of us have spent years dimming our light, second-guessing ourselves, or waiting for the “right time” to fully be who we are.

This will be a powerful 90-minute workshop, which we’re offering for free (250 EUR value), because we truly feel a collective shift happening in women right now.

We’re offering this freely because this work matters.
Because your voice matters.
Because the world needs women who feel safe to be seen.

The time to rise and show up as your whole self is now.
No more waiting for permission.
No more waiting to feel “ready.”

The time to show up unmasked, unapologetically you, is now.

If your heart feels a little YES while reading this… trust it 🤍

Last summer, 10 incredible women journeyed to Sataya to awaken their inner magic, embrace their Divine Feminine, swim with wild dolphins, reconnect with their inner mermaid, and grow stronger together in sacred sisterhood.

It was truly one of the most unforgettable weeks of my life, and I’m beyond excited to be offering this experience again this September, co-hosting with the one and only Sabrina, a powerful shaman, psychologist, and fellow mermaid sister.

This retreat is for women who are done playing small. For those who feel the call to step into their next, more expansive version of themselves, to unleash the playful, intuitive, and powerful energy of their inner mermaid, and to dive into a deeply transformative journey of spiritual alignment and connection with Source.

Together with your mermaid sisters, you’ll be guided through soul-nourishing practices including yoga, breathwork, and shamanic ceremonies, all held within the Blue Diamond Healing Field. These sacred experiences support deep alignment of body, mind, and spirit, grounding your energy while opening you to higher realms of awareness. From this space, trust deepens, joy expands, and life begins to be lived from a place of authenticity, love, and embodied power.

During this retreat, you will be treated like the queen you are. You’ll enjoy your own private room aboard a luxurious, all-inclusive yacht, surrounded by the pristine beauty of the Red Sea. We’ll swim with playful spinner dolphins in their natural home, opening ourselves to heart-led connection, subtle insights, and the remembering that we are here for a reason and that life is meant to be lived in joy.

And yes, joy also means play. Swimming with your very own mermaid tail invites your inner child to come out, soften, laugh, and feel free.

Together, Sabrina and I will guide you through deeply held sacred ceremonies including cacao, blue lotus, and fire ceremony, all activated through the Blue Diamond Healing Field. You can expect powerful group shamanic healing sessions that support profound release, quantum shifts in your healing journey, and faster alignment with the life you are ready to call in.

So if your heart is whispering yes, if the ocean feels like home, and if there’s a part of you that longs to laugh out loud, to play, to go deeper on your spiritual journey, to heal, and to manifest the life of your dreams… come swim with us.

Your mermaid sisters are waiting 🧜‍♀️🌊✨

What if manifestation isn’t about asking for more…
But about feeling safe and worthy to recieve it?

Sometimes we don’t sabotage what we want.. we simply don’t yet feel safe holding it.

So we doubt
We pull away
We find problems
We shrink

Not because we don’t want the dream : But because parts of us still fear it.

In this episode we talk about the inner tug-of-war between freedom and closeness, safety and expansion, our shadows and the journey to wholness.

Manifestation begins when all parts of you feel safe to say yes to your desires.
