Iona has been a lifelong leader in the public sector, a survivor of a traumatic brain injury and is thriving through her experiences with burnout. For three decades, Iona guided teams across the country that provided support to youth and families surviving traumatic experiences. In 2018, she received a Governor’s Citation for advocating against human trafficking in Maryland.

These intense roles stimulated Iona but also led to her burnout. She launched her business to build a community for other executives to explore their vulnerability and power as strength. She partners with women across the globe, creating a positive ripple effect for their families and communities.

She overcomes chronic pain, integrating principles of her 4 “Ws” of wellness: Wholeness, Willpower, Wisdom and Worthiness. She uses these principles to guide high-achieving leaders in finding healing, clarity and purpose.  Rooted in her Shinnecock Indian heritage, she embraces the principle of Mamoweenene (We Move Together). This ancestral principle drives her to unite with others in breaking barriers and cultivating a legacy of strength, resilience and triumph.
