THE PROGRAM
In The Mirror, we create an experience where mystery is allowed to remain mystery. Each day, we dedicate four hours to powerful sessions, workshops, and practices designed to expand your perception and transform it into embodied wisdom.
You’ll also face unannounced experiences and portals that push you out of your comfort zone, helping you transcend limits and enter moments of deep introspection and disconnection from the outside world.
All of this is grounded in connection with nature, which plays a vital role in our learning and personal growth process.
OVERVIEW
“The Mirror” is not a retreat; it’s a process of profound transformation that invites you to heal past wounds, break free from limiting patterns, and reclaim trust and respect in yourself. Grounded in daily life, this journey reveals the “extra” within the ordinary—removing external distractions, addictions, fears and ego-driven desires to reconnect you with your essence.
As your guide, I will serve as an unflinching mirror, confronting you with your shadows and errors so you can see them clearly, accept them, heal them, and integrate them. This process challenges you to face the transformations you fear with curiosity, humility, and compassion, and it provides you with the tools to cultivate the willpower needed to tame your shadows, reclaim your sovereignty, and live with integrity and freedom.
Throughout this journey, you will share my daily rhythms—waking early, cooking, taking responsibility for the home, immersing in the methodology, walking in nature, and engaging in meditation and breathwork in a simple and intimate environment. This experience is designed to bring your shadows and toxic patterns into full view, giving you the opportunity to become aware, to accept them, heal them and integrate them.
I will share with you a methodology that, when adopted and implemented with devotion, holds the power to transform your life, your family, and your work in deeply meaningful ways. This path invites you to embark on the greatest adventure of your life: surrendering with humility to the service of your heart.
“The Mirror” challenges you to be radically honest with yourself and to rebuild trust not only within, but also in your relationships. It demands courage and a true commitment to transform and redesign your life—living it with integrity, devotion, and honor. This process doesn’t just mark a beginning; it’s a powerful opportunity to take full responsibility and support one another on the path of reintegration.
I invite you to face the unknown — not in search of your next great adventure, but to embark on the greatest one of all: the quest to rediscover the lost treasure of your own heart.

As I continue stepping into the role of someone uncovering the responsibility of guiding others toward integrative well-being and true prosperity - I find it easier to let the universe take the wheel. It’s allowing me to be more present, more flexible, and more accessible—simply by sharing my life as an example and being in service through it.
Recently, I’ve welcomed two people into my everyday reality—not as guests, but as companions in this exploration of life. Sharing the way I live, the way I relate to divinity, to my family, to nature, to others, and to the world, while serving as a mirror—helping them uncover hidden parts of themselves through the reflection of this life.
We’ve shared home-cooked meals, lived simply in a private home nestled walking distance from a peaceful lagoon where the Atlantic Ocean meets the soft, sandy beaches of Portugal— and a pine tree forest. In this setting, intimate moments unfolded naturally, along with spontaneous adventures, the nourishment of family, and the depth of our methodology—offered through an experience of true presence.
I never imagined opening my life in this way, but here I am, wrapping up a week-long mirror session with someone who had been deeply wounded by the toxic dynamics of our culture. It has been an opportunity for growth, expansion, and refinement—for me and for them.
This process offers personalized attention, precision, and presence. It meets acute challenges with compassion and clarity, offering a journey that could change your life—forever.
With love, trust, and respect,
DDS.
PS – No one has ever regretted being brave.
