Hi, Iβm Ilana π
Your Spark Mentor & Lighthouse for Women Ready to Rise
I help big-hearted women whoβve been holding it all together pause, breathe, and remember who they are β so they can lead with heart, courage, and joy.
β¨ You donβt need fixing.
You just need remembering.
A gentle, heart-to-heart conversation to explore where you are and whatβs next.
Youβve spent years being the glue β the one everyone leans on β and somewhere along the way, little pieces of you got buried under all the holding it together.
I know that ache. Iβve lived it.
Iβm a mom, a caregiver, and a woman whoβs walked through fire β from raising a childhood cancer survivor to navigating burnout, big moves, and all the messy, beautiful in-between moments of life.
And hereβs what Iβve learned:
β¨ Real strength isnβt doing it all β itβs letting yourself be human, messy, and magicalβ¦ and choosing to rise anyway.
β¨ You donβt need to do more β you need space to breathe and be.
β¨ You are not too much, and you havenβt missed your moment.
β¨ Your truth, your boundaries, and your magic matter.
β¨ You donβt have to earn rest, joy, or a second chance.
β¨ The world doesnβt need a shinier version of you β it needs you, right now, as you are.
β¨ You can be falling apart and rising at the same time β and still be powerful as hell.

What I Do & The S.P.A.R.K.β’ Method
I help big-hearted women over 40 β the ones whoβve been carrying it all and quietly wondering, βWhen is it my turn?β β reclaim space for themselves.
Through my signature S.P.A.R.K.β’ Method β
See your truth. Pause with love. Align your energy. Reclaim your magic. Keep shining. β
I guide you back to your courage, clarity, and joy.
Every mentoring journey we create is personalized and intuitive β blending mindset tools, energy practices, and practical magic with real-world compassion.
No pressure. No pretending.
Just real support for your next right step.
How I Weave It All Together
My work brings together the best of what Iβve learned β through study, experience, and the thousands of moments that have shaped me.
Iβm a:
Certified Fearless Living Coach & Certified Fearless Living Trainer β trained in the science and psychology of fear, behavior change, and emotional freedom.
Reiki I Practitioner β attuned to intuitive energy healing and guided presence.
Positive Intelligence (PQ) β integrating mindset and saboteur awareness tools into everyday life.
Human Design & Gene Keys Enthusiast β using these frameworks for deeper self-understanding and alignment.
Former Teacher, Hospitality Leader, and Direct Sales Mentor β which means I get people β all kinds of people β and bring compassion, humor, and grounded structure to every interaction.
Today, I blend all of that (plus a touch of β¨AI magicβ¨) to create customized, soul-aligned mentoring experiences that help women reconnect with their inner wisdom and shine from the inside out.
The coaching and mentoring industry may be unregulated β but my heart isnβt.
Iβve invested time, energy, and years of real-world learning because this work changes lives β starting with my own.
What sets my work apart is how it feels:
Like coming home.
Like remembering your own light.
Like being truly seen. π
