Ilene Kastel has spent over twenty years sitting with high-achieving women in exactly that moment, when life looks right from the outside and feels off on the inside. When a relationship ends, identity shifts, or success stops feeling like enough.
Her approach blends psychology, nervous system regulation, and somatic healing because the kind of change her clients are navigating doesn't just live in the mind. It lives in the body, the unconscious, and the deeper layers of who they actually are.
She specializes in five pivotal transitions: breakup and divorce recovery, midlife shifts and purpose, corporate exit and reinvention, entrepreneurship and life balance, and the quiet reckoning that comes when success stops feeling like enough.
She built and sold a seven-figure business when it no longer reflected who she was becoming, and knows firsthand what it takes to build a life that actually feels like yours.
If something here resonates, she would love to connect. High-touch 1:1 coaching, transformational RESET Breathwork journeys, and half-day intensives are available virtually and in person. Women's retreats are in-person only.
She and her husband split their time between San Diego, Chicago, and Wisconsin, chasing the sun and building a life that actually feels like theirs.
Outside of her work you'll find her dancing, scuba diving, doing Pilates, or getting lost in a good book.
