Dr. Andrea Howard has been immersed in women's spirituality for decades, first as a participant, then co-facilitator of transformational retreats, workshops, and women's circles. She has a solid foundation on which to structure a safe space for the transformation of others as we grow into our fullest potential. 

Andrea's professional journey began in the 1980's with a Master'd degree in Counseling/Psychology. She worked with terminally ill patients/families and launched the first children's hospice in Sacramento. She then spent 15 years in human service management, running residential programs for adults with developmental disabilities and adolescents with substance abuse. 

The next segment of Andrea's career was about embracing her entrepreneurial spirit through launching and growing an interesting cadre of businesses...catering, yoga/belly dance studio, digital marketing company, and bean to bar chocolate shop. Throughout her circuitous career, she maintained a deep curiosity about intentionality, spirituality, and personal transformation. 

In 2024 Andrea earned a PhD in Transpersonal Psychology (mind/body/spirit), where she concentrated in women's studies. Her dissertation research explored American women's relationship with food as a factor of human flourishing. Through her degree program, intense study, and countless hours of research, Andrea has developed a level of expertise in the diverse subject area of women's spirituality, and maintains a commitment to lifelong learning and personal growth. 

Andrea's professional services reflect her depth of knowledge and experience, dedication to personal growth, inspiration to cheer other women on toward their greatest joy, fulfillment, and functioning. She does so by integrating her skills of teaching, training, coaching, guiding, supporting, and nurturing others as unique and divine beings/
