Introduction to Creative Strategies for Retreat Leaders

Behind every successful retreat is not just a beautiful location or powerful ceremony—but a story, a vision, and a strategy that speaks directly to the hearts of the people it’s meant to serve.


At Lunita Jungle Retreat, we’ve seen how clarity, creativity, and connection make all the difference. That’s why we’re honored to introduce you to Ella Dawn Burgess, a creative strategist helping retreat leaders across the world bring their visions to life through branding, marketing, and soul-aligned storytelling.


Meet Ella Dawn Burgess — The Creative Strategist Helping Retreat Leaders Tell Their Story and Fill Their Retreats with Purpose

At Lunita Jungle Retreat, we believe a retreat begins long before the guests arrive—in the intention, the story, and the energy behind it.


That’s why we’re so grateful to work alongside individuals like Ella Dawn Burgess—Lunita’s marketing partner and the creative visionary behind Haus of Dawn, a boutique social media marketing and branding agency that helps wellness and lifestyle brands translate their purpose and story into their online presence.


With years of experience in social media strategy, brand design, and intentional marketing, Ella Dawn specializes in supporting retreat leaders in bringing their vision and practice to life.


But her work goes far beyond “strategy.” Ella Dawn’s approach is rooted in intentionality. Whether she’s developing a content calendar, designing a visual identity, or fine-tuning a brand’s voice, her work is always about connection:

— connecting you to your ideal audience,

— connecting your story to your services,

— and connecting every moving part of your business back to your deeper mission, back to the ethos of your brand.

“I don’t just want you to look good online—I want your content to feel like you. To reflect the truth of what you’re offering. That’s when people say yes. That’s how you connect.”

From Curiosity to Connection-Driven Strategy

Ella Dawn has always been fascinated by what makes people click—not just in marketing, but in life. Her love for branding and marketing grew from a deep interest in design, psychology, and the subtle art of connection.


Over time, she began to notice a pattern: the most impactful businesses were led by people who cared deeply. People who were doing more than just selling—they were healing, guiding, and holding space.


These were the people Ella Dawn wanted to support.


Since then, she’s partnered with wellness retreats, coaches, healers, beauty bars, and conscious entrepreneurs across the world, helping them grow communities, fill their programs, and build digital ecosystems that actually nurture their people.


Her Specialties Include:

  • Social media marketing strategy rooted in SEO and intentional storytelling

  • Brand identity development that reflects both essence and vision

  • Designing scalable content systems so retreat leaders can show up consistently without burning out


A Collaborative Process That Feels Like Flow

Working with Ella Dawn doesn’t feel transactional. It feels like being seen, heard, and guided by someone who gets both the strategy and the sacredness of your work.


She offers everything from one-off brand strategy sessions to full-service monthly social media management, helping clients build trust and momentum across platforms.


The Bigger Why

Ultimately, Ella Dawn’s mission is to support leaders who are here to shift the narrative and reach the people who need their work most. She thrives on genuine connection and is passionate about helping purpose-driven businesses grow, thrive, and make a lasting impact.


“The work of retreat leaders and healers is powerful—but if the right people can’t find or see it, they can’t receive the transformation it offers. That’s where I come in. I help bring your work into the light so it can reach the people who need it most.”

Special Packages for Retreat Leaders Through Lunita

If you are a retreat leader connected with Lunita Jungle Retreat, working with Ella Dawn comes with a beautiful bonus: exclusive access to special marketing packages created in collaboration with Lunita Jungle Retreat Center.


These custom offerings were intentionally designed to support facilitators in sharing their message, growing their audience, and filling their retreats—with more ease, clarity, and purpose. Whether you’re just beginning your journey or have years of experience, these tailored packages offer you the tools and support you need to build your retreat brand with heart and strategy.


And the best part?
