Isabella Peñaranda seated in a studio holding a candle.

I love, love, love holding space for people and witnessing them discover, or rediscover, who they really are. By creating genuine connections, I help people explore what makes them who they are and reconnect with what truly matters.

I'm still on a continuous path of exploration myself. After more than fifteen years working in media, including at the BBC and at HELLO! / ¡HOLA!, where I worked my way up to Head of Global Digital Partnerships, I realised that despite having a “successful” career, something important was missing. I wanted to live a life with purpose.

So I took a leap of faith, stepped away from the corporate world and began to redefine what success meant to me.

I retrained, experienced a lot of ups and downs, and along the way I developed an interest (some might say obsession) with the moon and its cycles. I love what they teach us about consistency, authenticity, trusting life's rhythms and finding ways to shine and keep going even in our darkest moments. Today, I share my moon musings from a perspective of energy, reflection and encouraging people to check in with themselves. My lunar cycle meditations have become my most regularly listened-to practices on Insight Timer.

Reiki and meditation found me at a time when I felt lost. I knew there had to be more to life, but what I hadn't realised was that the answers I was searching for were already within me. A little like Dorothy from Kansas, who had the power to find her way home all along.

That discovery changed my life. Today, as a Madrid-based Meditation Guide, Reiki Master and certified Coach, I bring together these practices to help others reconnect with themselves, guided by the values I hold closest: authenticity, humour, kindness, courage and integrity.

I'm simply a vessel for change, holding space for you to discover the power that's always been yours. Learn more about my services here.
