At the heart of everything we do is a simple belief: when people understand themselves better, they move through life with more confidence, clarity, and ease. Whether on the water or in everyday life, self-awareness shapes how we communicate, how we handle challenge, and how we connect with others.
 

Paddle A Board was created as more than a paddleboarding experience. It is a space where personal growth and outdoor adventure come together. Paddleboarding naturally places you outside your comfort zone. It asks for presence, trust, balance, and adaptability. These moments on the water become powerful opportunities to build confidence, regulate emotions, and develop resilience in a safe and supportive environment.
 

By integrating emotional intelligence practices into our paddleboarding experiences, we help individuals strengthen self-awareness, emotional regulation, and communication skills that translate far beyond the lake. What begins as learning to stand on a board often becomes a deeper understanding of how you respond to fear, uncertainty, and success; both personally and professionally.
 

Our Emotional Intelligence Wellness Program offers one-day, land-based retreats designed for meaningful self-reflection and personal growth. These experiences create space to slow down, reconnect, and better understand how you think, feel, and respond; both personally and professionally.
 

As a certified profiler, I offer EQ-i 2.0 and EQ-i 360 assessments for those wanting to explore deeper self-awareness. These reports provide clear insight into emotional strengths, communication patterns, and growth areas, supporting individuals, teams, and employers in building healthier dynamics and stronger leadership.
 

We also offer floating sound baths as part of our emotional intelligence work, using sound and stillness to support nervous system regulation and deepen awareness through the body. These experiences help bridge understanding from the head into felt experience, creating space for integration and calm.
 

Each retreat is co-facilitated alongside two incredible practitioners, creating a grounded and supportive container. Learn more about the facilitators in the Getting to Know the Team section.
 

We welcome every body, every background, and every starting point. Whether you are new to paddleboarding, rebuilding confidence, or seeking meaningful growth through movement and connection, our experiences are designed to meet you where you are. Through thoughtful guidance, safety-first instruction, and genuine human connection, we create experiences that empower people to grow, connect, and carry these lessons into their lives, relationships, and work.
