Mending Miles Co.
Slow journeys that honor rest, curiosity, and good meals. Each retreat blends local food traditions, creative workshops,
and guided circles with a mental health professional. Eight women, one house, many ways back to yourself.

Mending Miles Co. might be born from my story being a domestic violence-surviving widow who travels with purpose - but here’s what you should know about me
​
I’ve spent years bringing people together through food, culture, and storytelling. My path has taken me from restaurant leadership to tourism and communications, always centered on creating spaces where connection feels natural.
I’ve hosted travelers, curated tourism and press itineraries, and shared stories across continents, learning that food has a way of mending what words
sometimes can’t.
