about Denise
Licensed Holistic psychoTherapist, Yoga educator, speaker & entrepreneur
I’m Denise Alba — someone who’s been there. Fatigued from the corporate pace. Quietly anxious. Struggling to figure out if the next chapter would be building something from scratch... or simply surviving one more day.
My Story
Born and raised in sunny San Diego by immigrant parents from Mexico, I learned early about resilience — but also saw up close what happens when we ignore what’s inside. After years of pushing through anxiety, burnout, and trying to “do the right thing,” I found my way back through yoga, psychotherapy, and soul-searching.
I realized that healing, meaning, and purpose aren’t luxuries. They’re essential.
What I Do
Leveraging my own journey + formal training, I help women who feel stuck or burned out shift into lives and businesses that feel aligned. I serve them through:
Speaking engagements that stir the heart and spark change
Courses & programs blending yoga, nervous-system work, mindset tools
Coaching (life & business) to help make the transition in a way that honors your wellness
International retreats that create space for deep healing, clarity, and connection — all in inspiring, soul-nourishing destinations around the world.
