Allison Quaid
I’m passionate about healing and connecting to love and peace within. Perhaps not uniquely, I was deeply committed to chasing external success, dedicating myself to executive roles in major corporations and leading my own firm. Yet, amidst this pursuit, I realized my path didn’t include honoring my sacred self. Instead, I was racing towards achievements, driven by fear and edging towards burnout, disconnected from the nurturing, soft, and playful essence of my feminine spirit.
With time and reflection, I've learned the importance of embracing both aspects of my existence - the ambitious and the sacred feminine. I now navigate my ambitions with love and trust, honoring both my strength and tenderness. This journey has led me to an invaluable insight: at our core, we are sacred beings, deserving of our own recognition and love.
I led workshops around the world inspired by my love of empowering women and helping them to discover their hearts and souls. Something special happens when a sacred space is created for women to share their stories and be held in love by others - and these moments are the ones I cherish co-creating with others.
Twelve years ago I got trained in Reiki and later in Qigong healing and mediumship. I am a spiritual intuitive. I create a healing frequency of unconditional love where people can expand to higher states of consciousness to access their soul’s knowing. I also write healing fairy tales and have been an executive at large companies working on sustainability strategy for the past 20 years.
I live in Europe and one of my very favorite places to travel to is Italy - so I’ll be sharing my love of Italian food, wine, design and history with you!

Clair Merryweather
I seek to illuminate, empower, and nurture women towards finding the peace that we all seek. As a devoted mother to two sons, I experienced a spiritual awakening in my mid-thirties. This inspired my spiritual quest to understand how to use my gifts to help facilitate others in their healing journey. Life's challenges, like a 22-year marriage ending in divorce, can be the catalyst for a profound inner exploration. In the aftermath, I delved into the depths of my soul, navigating the shift from codependency to cultivating a profound awareness of my inherent self-worth.
I teach meditation, the healing arts, and psychic and mediumistic development to inspire others to expand their awareness of the healing power that lies within. I trained under the guidance of world-renowned teachers at the Arthur Findlay College of psychic science and healing arts in London. I am an award holder in demonstrating mediumship, philosophy, and prayer.
I hosted my own spiritual talk radio show in the UK and was featured as an in-studio psychic on Sky TV’s Psychic Channel.
There is no greater gift other than to be of service to others and I feel joyous to be following my soul’s purpose as a healer.
I’m excited to join you in Italy to help you connect to your divine essence.

What other people say about our retreats and services…
“Clair was incredible in connecting with my loved ones and she gave me guidance on a few issues - it truly helped in tremendous ways. She has such the gift and with her soothing personality and healing essence I felt extremely comfortable with her immediately.”
Drew Cali, client of Clair
“I want to share my experience of my energy healing with Allison. What I did not expect was the emotional and physical changes that occurred on that day and continue to this day. Everywhere Allison held her hands high, I felt heat. I have to admit I felt fear and joy at the same time. It was an experience I will never forget. I went in with so much stress and came out as if a heavy burden had left me. My soul feels this incredible peace. She has a gift and I hope each of you will one day have this amazing life-changing experience.”
