Pilar Avila, MCLC, RYT200
Founding Leader, interDUCTUS|Renovad
Life & Business Abundance Coach
Doing well and doing good is the path to living abundantly free - this is my ethos and my North Star. I am a passionate human striving for higher self-awareness, health, happiness, living free, eradicating judgment and lifting every living being with compassion.
After giving the best of me to other great endeavors for 25 years, I launched interDUCTUS, an organizational change management consulting practice. Through Renovad, we serve the humans that make organizations work to champion them in maximizing their impact in life and business. As I continue a transformative life expedition, I will be blessed to travel with you. Let’s journey together.
Lisa Avila
Co-Host & Master Concierge
I have held a variety of management and support positions across several industries including banking, real estate, law, human resources and healthcare. A common thread through my career has been a keen dedication to service clients, often engaged in high impact or life changing events.
My first passport was issued when I was 10 years old and I spent 30 days traveling through Europe with my grandparents. Since then, I have visited 15 countries across the Americas, Europe and Africa. As your Master Concierge, I will assist you in researching flights and any additional custom-made experiences ahead of your retreat. You can also count on me to take any steps to ensure you have a most pleasant journey. As Pilar’s big sister, I have been blessed to share her life’s journey since her first day in the world. I look forward to many more adventures with her and with all of you.

I’m an international transformational speaker, leadership coach, career strategies, and #1 bestselling author. I have over 25 years of experience in the financial services and technology industries.
My Why today is to fulfill my full potential and to help my son Kyle and my clients achieve theirs. I specialize in developing leaders by delivering keynotes, coaching, and leadership training programs for organizations, ERGs, and Fortune 500 companies. In 2020, I created the Fearless Leadership Mastermind program and graduated five cohorts so far! When I’m not working J, I enjoy hiking, biking, meditating, traveling, and spending time with loved ones, especially my teenage son, Kyle, and Shih Tzu, Bruce. It’s a pleasure to be here.
Brittany Smith-Cochran
Co-Host
I am a 500-hour registered yoga teacher (E-RYT 500) also holding certificates for yoga therapy, yoga for Veterans, yoga for PTSD, and yoga for eating disorders. I am also a certified Personal trainer, and Reiki practitioner.
I found myself in child’s pose after a serious injury that severely limited my mobility. The space yoga created for me to heal my physical body, my thought patterns, and connection with myself is something I remember every time I teach and practice yoga. I cherish the wisdom a yoga practice offers, and it is an honor for me to facilitate my yoga students through their personal processes.
