Meet Your Facilitator For The Equinox Retreat
Chloe Pedalino is dedicated to making the profound insights of metaphysical wisdom accessible to all, bridging the gap between spirituality and well-being. Her mission is to help individuals tap into their higher selves, achieve inner balance, and connect with both ancient spiritual practices and modern psychological insights.
Chloe’s journey began with a deep familial connection to metaphysical exploration. Her grandfather, born in 1890, studied astrology, numerology, and was a freemason. Although Chloe was raised in the Catholic tradition, her path took a significant turn at the age of 14 when she delved into the esoteric teachings of Kabbalah. This early exposure ignited her passion for spirituality, culture, and understanding the human mind, which laid the foundation for her future career in mental health.
Her own spiritual awakening journey brought Chloe to become attuned as a Usui/Holy Fire III Reiki Master and certified in ICRT Animal Reiki I & II through the International Center for Reiki Training, Chloe integrates her expertise in holistic healing with her work in mental health. Her certifications have deepened her ability to offer comprehensive healing, focusing on both the spiritual and emotional well-being of her clients.
Chloe’s latest passion project, The Source Within Podcast, explores the intersection of spirituality, healing, and mental well-being. In her episodes, she shares transformative insights, including teachings on the Sacred Ley Lines of Teotihuacan, empowering listeners with practical tools for personal growth and spiritual exploration.
What Our Fellow Retreat Members Had To Say
Chloe is an extraordinary guide, a true lightworker whose presence alone brings healing and peace. As a co-facilitator on our retreat in. Teotihuacán (Mexico), she held space with such grace, wisdom, and deep intuition. Her Reiki sessions are nothing short of transformational—she channels pure love and divine energy, creating a space where true healing unfolds.
Beyond her incredible healing gifts, Chloe’s ability to bridge the spiritual and physical realms is a gift to all who cross her path. If you have the opportunity to work with her or join her retreats, know that you are stepping into the embrace of something truly sacred.
Thank you, Chloe, for illuminating my journey!
I had the most exciting, truly life changing experience on our international retreat with Chloe.
She organized amazing day trips that were meaningful, deeply spiritual and fun!
Our evening meet ups were very educational and integrative to blend our experience for the day with daily personal growth opportunities.
I truly appreciated Chloe’s personal healing Reiki session that gave instant relief and permanent clarity for a solution, for a very specific issue.
She engages and gives space in just the right amounts. I am truly looking forward to our next adventure.
