By the time she reached her late 20’s, Emily Pereira looked like she had the dream life. A senior sales rep selling what Time Magazine hailed as the revolutionary new treatment for cancer, living in a beachfront home with her longterm love who co-founded Myspace and invites to parties and events around the world. It sure looked good, but deep inside she knew something big was missing. A shocking heartbreak spurred a breakdown that became a radial personal, spiritual and creative awakening. Taking what she's learned she's become a lighthouse for other women, empowering them to create lives rooted in unapologetic permission, unabashed passion, and rock solid purpose. Now, she is an international retreat leader, bestselling author of The Quest, and women’s coach specializing in helping women call in heart-thumping-passionate-I-got-your-back-no-matter-what-kinda love. Her raw vulnerable storytelling laced with mind-blowing a-ha's about women’s empowerment has reached over 5 million people worldwide, landing her speaking engagements at Wanderlust, Summit Outside, and Spotify to name a few. She lives in Santa Teresa, a seaside village along Costa Rica’s Pacific coast, with her partner, Manex and two small children, Saïa Moon and Teo where together they co-founded The Sunrise Mountain Retreat and Wellness Center.
