P.E.R.L.O.V.E.

"After a very circuitous route, I am so grateful to be here. And I can tell you beyond everything you do for yourself, mind training matters."        ~Holly 💜

 

 

Holly McNeill, a seasoned architect with 26 years of experience managing global projects, including hospitals with budgets up to $1 billion, found a profound passion for clarity during a challenging period in her life. Despite her professional success, she couldn't prevent the perfect world she’d crafted to conceal her perceived flaws from crashing down.

 

To onlookers, she seemingly had it all—an attractive husband, two lovely children, a home they built to house their nice cars and host their great friends, right down to their fabulous pets—everything one needs to be happy according to society's rules and prescriptions. However, the foundations of her life were flawed, and at 34 years old, it all imploded.

 

From this low point, Holly vowed to do better and spent the next two decades fulfilling that vow. It was no easy task. She first left what was, under the surface, a mutually manipulative and controlling marriage, embarking on an eight-year battle for her children. Faced with alienation from her two boys, she had no choice but to endure the hardships of the battlefield despite her high anxiety and feelings of low self-worth.

 

Yet, in keeping this vow, Holly stumbled upon an incredible spiritual path that provided answers when she needed them and the right people, events, and situations along the way. This inward exploration involved confronting the beliefs, emotions, and destructive patterns that had hindered her life.

 

In the twenty years between 9-11 and the COVID pandemic, alongside her flourishing career, she undertook a soul-searching journey for clarity that spanned various corners of America. Immersing herself in the realms of neuroscience, psychology, and spirituality, she merged her architectural prowess with transpersonal exploration. In the greater New York City area, she practiced Buddhism for five years before once again, at age 49, packing up everything she had and leaving everyone she knew to move across the country and live in a Buddhist Dharma house in San Francisco.

 

Inspired by the ancient teachings and modern thought leaders she encountered, her quest evolved into the creation of the P.E.R.L.O.V.E. formula—a transformative set of mindfulness meditation practices designed to unravel unhealthy and crippling thoughts, emotions, and feelings, creating space for positive change. Now, as the Mindfulness Architect, Holly shares her transformative approach designed to fit into today’s hectic world, empowering individuals in the realm of holistic healing.
