The way towards world peace is through inner peace.
Hi, I’m Dana!
My passion resides at the intersection of wellness and philanthropy. My entrepreneurial journey has been multifaceted, encompassing a wide range of roles: from steering an event production company and becoming a top sales leader within a global brand, where I excelled as a coach and speaker, to working as a clinical hypnotherapist.
Throughout these endeavours, I have made significant contributions to the charitable sector for over two decades as Director of a Canadian charitable foundation.
This diverse path has ultimately led me to a perfect pinnacle, as Chief Impact Officer at HOUSE OF IMPACT, International Retreat Host, and Spiritual & Wellness Mentor, where my varied experiences converge harmoniously.

In my role as a sales leader and coach, I became deeply fascinated with the inner workings of the mind and the dichotomy between success and lack thereof. Despite reaching the top 1% financially, spiritually, I felt a profound sense of dissatisfaction. This spurred me on a personal pilgrimage of self-healing and discovery, during which I unearthed authentic inner peace and purpose.
Now, with certifications in Clinical Hypnotherapy, Rapid Transformation Therapy, Past Life Regression Therapy, and Trauma-informed Somatic Therapy, I operate a personal clinical practice and international wellness retreats. Here, I support others in breaking through limiting beliefs and embarking on their own spiritual paths toward authentic peace and purpose.
Simultaneously, my passion for giving back had me launch a Canadian foundation, ultimately leading me on a consulting path where I act as Chief Impact Officer at House of Impact, a pioneering strategy and consulting firm dedicated to guiding individuals, businesses, and brands toward leaving a lasting, positive footprint on the world. This visionary agency is at the forefront of marrying ambition with altruism, empowering its clients to integrate social responsibility seamlessly into their essence and operational blueprint.
I am currently living out my dream in Costa Rica, supporting others as they also support the world. I spend my free time volunteering for charitable boards, writing a book and studying towards my PhD in Philosophy and Conscious Living, furthering my mission to help others master the art of giving and receiving.

Impact
“As we give, so we receive.”
As Chief Impact Officer at House of Impact, I have the pleasure of converging all of my passions for philanthropy and supporting others in curating their legacies.

My path has been defined by a passion for impact from an early age, inspired by my experience volunteering with my grandmother as a young girl, followed by producing my first charity event at 16. This early start foreshadowed a life dedicated to philanthropy, a commitment that continued through my university years and evolved into a career in event production focused on charitable fundraising.
In 2011, I joined the charitable foundation Artbound, broadening my impact through fundraising and leading international impact retreats in countries like Kenya, India, Nicaragua, Haiti, and Guatemala.
The pandemic brought a temporary halt to fundraising events and impact based travel but opened a new avenue for me as a consultant for charities and affluent individuals passionate about making a difference. I discovered a shift in the philanthropic landscape: people no longer wanted to just write checks; they cared deeply about the impact of their contributions and sought guidance in aligning their donations with their passions.
This led to the creation of House of Impact, a strategy and consulting firm that assists individuals, businesses, and brands in leaving a positive footprint on the world. At House of Impact, I help clients integrate social responsibility into their core operations.
Now, I stand at an intersection where my love for wellness and impact merges with my passion for giving and receiving. I consider it an honor to guide others through this process, leveraging my experiences to facilitate a deeper connection between individuals and the causes they care about.
Wellness
“You can’t help the world until you help yourself”
For years as an entrepreneur I was unbalanced, unhappy, and anxiety-ridden. As a self-proclaimed expert in ‘getting it done’, giving until I would collapse and working hard, I successfully climbed my way up that imaginary ladder… My worth was tied to my achievements, my looks and my ability to manifest my dreams. And that I did. Producing large scale events, traveling the world, fundraising millions for charities, and reaching the 1%.. And yet still… I was unhappy and burnt out and knew there had to be more. So I set out on a journey of self-discovery, and now it is my honour to support others as they do the same.

It has taken me this entire lifetime to find my way back to the real ME… Balanced in my doing and being, giving and receiving, and masculine and feminine energies…
It has taken me years to learn my boundaries, let go of many of my outer attachments and find my inner peace…
It has taken me many cycles to learn to communicate from love, release judgment of self and others and see the interconnectedness of us all…
This self-reclamation has been my biggest ‘achievement’ in life so far…
It is through this self-reclamation that I am now honored and able to support others on their journeys.
