The oldest of seven children, Renee was raised in a wildly creative Montessori inspired household steeped in music, science, philosophy, art and spirituality. In the mid 1970s, her parents — a physician and a musician/artist — left their comfortable, conventional life in San Antonio, TX and moved Renee and her brothers to the wilderness of California’s Sierra Nevada mountains to create a new life centered around spirituality, nature and simplicity. They lived in a two-bedroom home with a wood-burning stove, rode horses bareback to school, wrote poetry, read Sanskrit texts and made stained glass and pottery.  Years later, between 1992-2000, Renee tragically lost her mom, dad and 20-year-old brother. These early deaths were wakeup calls for Renee to stay awake and alive and challenged her to never sleepwalk through life. 

A nationally-known catalyst/author/thought leader and teacher, Renee has written several award-winning books on living intentionally — including The Mother’s Guide to Self-Renewal: How to Reclaim, Rejuvenate and Re-Balance Your Life. She facilitates women’s retreats at Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health, Esalen Institute, the Art of Living Retreat Center and Omega Institute and is a sought-after media expert on the topics of life balance and resiliency. Her pioneering work has been featured in The New York Times, Spirituality & Health, O Magazine, Good Housekeeping and more. She and her husband, a musician, live in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina; their son Jonah, a jazz musician/artist, lives in New York City.  Renee loves teaching embodied spirituality, sovereignty and feeling her aliveness through dancing, leading song circles, making soup with local veggies for friends/family and taking long, meandering forest hikes under the moon.
