Meet Your Wellness Team

Meet Marissa, a licensed therapist and owner of New Path Therapy. Marissa is also a mother of two.

Marissa didn’t always know she needed a retreat. She just knew she was constantly overstimulated.

The noise, the needs, the never-ending demands —she was snapping more than she wanted to admit. Not out of anger, but from being completely overwhelmed. She couldn’t even think straight.

As the first in her circle to have children, she was deeply loved —but not always understood. She didn’t have a village. She didn’t have sisterhood.

Motherhood felt like this beautiful, sacred thing… that also completely swallowed her. She couldn’t tell where she ended and “mom” began. In the chaos, she lost sight of herself. No one warns you how isolating motherhood can feel.

Then one day, she paused and asked: What would happen if I gave myself the same love, patience, and care I give everyone else?

That question planted the seed for Off Duty: A Mom’s Retreat.

This isn’t just a weekend away. It’s a space to exhale.

To reconnect with who you are beyond your roles.

To be surrounded by women who get it —and get you.

To remember that you were never meant to do this alone.

Marissa created this retreat for the mom she was back then —and for you, right now.

Meet Annie, a Registered Dietitian and founder of A to Z Wellness Solutions in Sea Girt, NJ. Annie brings a refreshing, no-shame approach to nutrition that's rooted in compassion, balance, and real life.

As a mom herself, she understands how easy it is to put your own needs last - especially when it comes to food and self-care. At the retreat, she will guide you in reconnecting with your body and your plate, to help you feel at home in your body again.

She'll help you reconnect with your needs and walk away with practical, soul-nourishing strategies you can carry back home.

Meet Kimberly, a certified pregnancy and postpartum fitness coach and owner of Rise Fitness. Kimberly knows firsthand how overwhelming the physical changes of motherhood can be. It wasn’t until her own pregnancy that she discovered the power of working with a certified coach —someone who could help her move safely, breathe properly, and adapt through every stage of pregnancy and beyond.

After experiencing the benefits of core rehab, gentle modifications, and support through postpartum recovery, Kimberly realized how many moms were silently struggling with pain, leakage, and body disconnection —things too often dismissed as “just part of motherhood.”

Now certified and passionate about rewriting that narrative, Kimberly helps moms feel strong, supported, and confident in their bodies again. At Off Duty: A Mom’s Retreat, she’ll guide you through movement that meets you where you are, with no pressure —just encouragement, healing, and the belief that your body deserves care too.

We’re thrilled to welcome Coach Harrison and Coach Olesya of H20 Tennis to Off Duty: A Mom’s Retreat as an optional add-on experience for guests who want to move, laugh, and reconnect with their bodies in a fresh, energizing way.

Their unique approach blends uplifting instruction with real skill-building —no matter your experience level. With over a decade of coaching adults and kids, they bring warmth, expertise, and a lot of fun to the court.

Expect lighthearted lessons, giveaways, and moments that leave you feeling empowered. Whether you’re new to tennis or returning after years, this add-on is a beautiful way to expand your retreat experience.

Hi, I’m Jessica DeNotta—educator, designer, and mom of four.
With a Master’s in Education and years of experience as a classroom teacher, I’ve always been drawn to how environment shapes behavior—especially for kids. Now, through my studies at the New York School of Interior Design and my real-life experience raising four little ones, I help families create spaces and systems that actually work.

I believe less is more. No more overflowing bins, scattered toys, or routines that drain the whole house. I help parents clear the clutter—both physical and mental—and design calm, intentional homes where kids can thrive and adults can breathe.
