Since the age of 10, Davina dreamed of someday exploring the Amazon Rainforest.  As a 30th Birthday present to herself, she took the leap of faith by booking a solo trip to Brazil to catch an Amazon River cruise.  Albeit a dream come true, there were plenty of lessons and self-discoveries throughout the journey.

Jasper Hoffman is a true testament of “Turning Pain into Power.” Raised in an conservative Mennonite church, she broke away to become educated and create her own life.  However, being raised to be submissive left her prone to abusive relationships. She has not only broken her own patterns to create a happier life; but, she now coaches women who are transitioning out of emotionally toxic relationships as well.  Her life motto is, “The only pricks you need in your life are succulents.”   CONNECT WITH JASPER www.jasperhoffman.com IG @jasper_hoffman_ CONNECT WITH DAVINA IG @davinafaust GOAL CALL - www.calendly.com/davina-faust
