I’m Rossanna, founder of Soul Pod NYC—a space to pause, breathe, and reset, right here in the middle of it all.

I grew up in Caracas, Venezuela—a city full of life, complexity, and contrast—and I’ve spent most of my adult life in urban centers like New York. That rhythm shaped me. I’ve raised kids, built businesses, and navigated the relentless pace of this city for over two decades. I know what it means to be pulled in a million directions. And I also know this: even when we have the luxury to step away, the most transformative journey isn’t the one that takes us out of the city—it’s the one that takes us inward. Into our own hearts, our breath, our being.

I’ve built a successful career across diplomacy, finance, and entrepreneurship—leading teams, launching ventures, and navigating high-stakes environments with focus and resilience. Today, I bring that same depth of experience into my work as a guide. I’m a certified breathwork facilitator, a cannabis-assisted psychedelic guide, and a graduate of the Synthesis Institute’s Psychedelic Practitioner Program. I’m also a PCC-level executive coach, trained at Columbia University.

Soul Pod isn’t about retreating from real life. It’s about finding your center in the middle of it. Because nature heals—and so does humanity. My role is to hold space for your healing, your clarity, and your return to yourself. One breath at a time.
