About Monica & the Team

Monica McMahon is a wellness entrepreneur, retreat curator, and embodiment specialist whose work integrates intelligent movement, meditation, energy medicine, and evidence-informed mind–body practices. She is the creator of the The SWAY Method™—a structured yet intuitive approach designed for former athletes and lifelong movers who want to restore trust, confidence, and freedom in their bodies without living in pain or protection mode.

Her journey into whole-person wellbeing began after an early career as an HR Manager at PepsiCo and an Organizational Effectiveness consultant supporting Fortune 500 companies. That foundation continues to inform her grounded, strategic, and deeply human approach—bridging performance, presence, and sustainable wellbeing.

A Gaja Collective–certified Primordial Sound Meditation instructor and E-RYT yoga teacher since 2002, Monica also holds advanced certifications in Pilates and personal training, with over two decades of teaching experience. Her additional training includes Thai-Yoga Stretch, Body Flow, Integrated Energy Therapy, and a wide range of holistic modalities. As both a Priestess and Reiki Master, she skillfully weaves spiritual psychology, energy work, and nervous system regulation into practices that help people move out of chronic stress and back into embodied clarity and steadiness.

For 13 years, Monica designed and led signature wellness programs at The Boca Raton, creating beloved offerings such as Full Moon Yoga, Candlelight Yoga, FitLife Retreats, and the resort’s comprehensive Pilates program.

Today, Monica curates personalized retreats and custom wellness experiences around the world, guiding individuals from survival mode into alignment, ease, and inner connection. Her work has been featured in Palm Beach Illustrated, and clients describe her presence as grounding, intuitive, and gently catalytic—inviting them to pause, breathe, and rediscover the inner light that challenge and busyness may have dimmed, but never erased.

At the heart of her work is a belief rooted in community, movement, music, and meaning. Inspired by the spirit of exploration and collective rhythm—often echoed in the music of the Grateful Dead—Monica creates spaces where people are reminded that healing, like life, is not linear. Her favorite lyric and guiding principle: “Once in a while, you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right”

Monica lives in South Florida with her husband, Francis, and is the proud mother of two sons. She brings her lived experience of resilience, family, and personal transformation into everything she offers—meeting each person with respect, curiosity, and an open heart.
