Does This Sound Familiar?

On the outside, you are successful, capable, and often the one everyone relies on.

On the inside, you feel exhausted, disconnected, and stretched thin.

You hold so much for everyone else, but rarely feel supported yourself.

You know something needs to change, and you’re ready for a way forward.

You long for more energy, ease, and a life that feels truly aligned.

Remember This Truth

You are not broken.

Your exhaustion is not a personal failure.

Your body is not betraying you.

Your longing for change is not too much.

It may simply be a sign that something within you is asking to be heard, tended to, and supported in a new way.

Healing, resilience, and wholeness are already within you.

You are already what you seek: healthy, resilient…enough.

Hi, I’m Ilana

I See You. I Get It.

As a former high-achiever who lived in constant overdrive, I know what it’s like to lose yourself in the demands of life. My own healing journey led me to this work, and now I help women come home to themselves and create lives that feel grounded, alive, and aligned.

Through Bodhi By Design, I offer a compassionate space to slow down, listen inward, and reconnect with what truly matters.

  • When I think of Ilana I think of her gentle spirit and her presence of peace.

    "It has been my experience when you are in her space, she shifts the energy promoting pure positivity. Ilana leads with her calming voice and her serene demeanor. She has helped me on my journey in several ways. Our conversations have ranged from experiencing loss, effects of stress, and spirituality. I have found her to be a real, powerful presence, and I am grateful to have her as a part of my journey."

  • I am immensely grateful that Ilana was sent my way.

    “I have some serious digestive issues for quite some time and felt helpless at times. Ilana was able to guide me not only through her knowledge but also wisdom, calm demeanor and determination. I feel hopeful and confident at the same time. The advice and suggestions were presented in such a way that I didn't feel stressed nor pressured. With confidence I look at a much better tomorrow."

  • Ilana is a compassionate and ethical soul...

    “…who is called to help people heal their inner landscape and the landscape around them, creating natural sacred spaces. She believes that authentic healing begins from within. Many of us have heard that we first need to honor ourselves before we can more deeply understand how to honor the earth we walk upon. Ilana is actively finding ways to help people do this. In a time of many changes, Ilana is guided to provide a balanced approach to wellness for people and for our beloved planet.” — Yvonne P. Gleason, Mentor, Reiki Master Teacher
