Heartventures are retreats curated by Deedee Morris and Krista McNally.

We create these retreats for those who desire a life full of adventure, who want to examine their inner landscape while exploring a gorgeous outer landscape, and create connections with like minded women. Why? Because, that’s exactly what we are seeking in our life.

We’ve been hosting events and retreats together since 2018.

    Learn more about Deedee on this episode of the Heartventure podcast

    Light chaser, deep thinker, fast reader, barefoot gardener, mama to twin 5 year old girls. Deedee is an awe-inspiring photographer whose work is not only beautifully raw, but is also incredibly honest. She dives in deep with her subjects, getting to know them on a personal and spiritual level, and is then able to capture a single moment that portrays their vulnerable individuality in stunning ways.
    Her work celebrates family, motherhood, self-understanding, and love of the natural world, all of which are outward expressions of her own values and ambitions.
    Deedee’s pursuit of authenticity is a rare and powerful experience.

  • Krista McNally

    BA, MSc, ACC Professional Coach

    All heart, the ever protective mama bear, Krista brings her whole self to gatherings and strives for honesty and integrity in whatever she sets her mind to. 



    She is skilled in many areas but the most profound is in her ability to contain an immeasurable amount of grace for all.

    

Trained as a professional coach, a nutritional therapist, an Enneagram educator, sacred sound and movement facilitator and yoga instructor, she brings knowledge and wisdom to every gathering she hosts.
