Hi, I’m Ilana πŸ’–

Your Spark Mentor & Lighthouse for Women Ready to Rise

I help big-hearted women who’ve been holding it all together pause, breathe, and remember who they are β€” so they can lead with heart, courage, and joy.

✨ You don’t need fixing.
You just need remembering.

A gentle, heart-to-heart conversation to explore where you are and what’s next.

You’ve 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. I’ve lived it.

I’m a mom, a caregiver, and a woman who’s 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 here’s what I’ve learned:
✨ Real strength isn’t doing it all β€” it’s letting yourself be human, messy, and magical… and choosing to rise anyway.

✨ You don’t need to do more β€” you need space to breathe and be.
✨ You are not too much, and you haven’t missed your moment.
✨ Your truth, your boundaries, and your magic matter.
✨ You don’t have to earn rest, joy, or a second chance.
✨ The world doesn’t need a shinier version of you β€” it needs you, right now, as you are.
✨ 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 who’ve been carrying it all and quietly wondering, β€œWhen is it my turn?” 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 I’ve learned β€” through study, experience, and the thousands of moments that have shaped me.

I’m 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 ✨AI magic✨) 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 isn’t.

I’ve 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. πŸ’–
