Donna Bond hadn’t felt inspired in a while. As the former director of marketing at the Ritz Carlton for 28 years, she’d sunk so much time into her corporate career, but it no longer gave her a feeling of purpose. Donna’s father passed away when he was 44 years old, and when she herself turned 44, she felt a huge rush to find her life’s purpose and get out of the corporate grind.

One day, she decided to take a leap. On the advice of a psychic, Donna threw caution to the wind and decided to leave her career and apply for a master of arts in spiritual psychology. In light of her new understanding, Donna relocated to Costa Rica to chase that famous pura vida. She now serves as a soul-centered catalyst for personal transformation as an author, speaker, thought leader, professional life and business coach, and transformation consultant. Follow along to hear Donna’s incisive insights on finding purpose in a world of distractions.

The lights of the concert hall dim. The audience grows silent in anticipation. Angela Jia-Kim, a talented concert pianist, sits in front of her piano and begins tickling the ivories like usual until hives start to appear all over her body. For a piano virtuoso, your hands are your life, so she began her investigation into what caused the outbreak - her skincare. Armed with new information and a reignited passion, Angela began making organic Korean-inspired skincare in her home.

In the following years, this “accidental entrepreneur” developed her own Korean-inspired skincare line Savor Beauty, founded the New York luxury spa chain Savor Beauty + Spa, became a mother to her tween Sienna, and authored the book Radical Radiance (12 Weeks of Self-Love Rituals). Her skincare line and luxury spas have been featured in The New York Times, Vogue, Elle, People, Allure, and Well+Good. The change from musical motions to lotions and potions was not intuitive, but she knew she finally found her passion.
