Immersion Intention
There are countless resources and programs out there to support you in the logistics of the college application process like essay writing, checklists, application to-do’s, etc.
We’re here to provide you with what’s missing from those action lists: the very human emotional experience that your family is about to walk through, together.
Through our time together, we aim to cultivate an experience where you get to:
Have the space to explore what this journey means for you and what is important to both the parent(s) and the student
Be honest with what you are excited/nervous/confused about
Decrease stress and increase clarity
Utilize the time with our experts to ask questions and navigate challenges that you may not have realized were even present
Connect with other parents and students who are on a parallel path so you have community to lean on to celebrate the wins and work through the challenges
Exhale a bit in knowing that you are prepared and supported
Create more room to enjoy the journey together with more tools and resources to navigate things as they arise

Gina Bowen
Certified Health + Life Coach and Founder of Moxy StrongI was shaped—and fueled—by two defining moments in my life. As a teen, I lost my dad to colon cancer. Shortly after, my own health began to decline, and after a year and a half of unanswered questions, I was diagnosed with Lupus.
Through those experiences, I discovered the power of resilience, emotional regulation, and intentional action—tools that helped me not only reclaim my health but also define my life’s purpose. My passion for growth and human potential led me to earn a BA in Child and Human Development and a Master’s in Education and Child Life in Hospitals, blending my personal journey with a professional foundation to empower both women and children.
At the heart of my work is a simple but powerful truth: mindset shapes everything. My gift is helping others cultivate a growth and wellness mindset—so they can simplify healthy living and connect deeply to themselves. I focus on the **Core4 essentials—nutrition, movement, sleep, and stress support—**and provide the accountability, compassion, and structure needed to turn those into sustainable daily practices.
During COVID, I witnessed firsthand how isolation and the lack of social-emotional tools impacted kids, including my own. That experience inspired me to co-create Empowered Kids, a school-based program teaching growth mindset, emotional resilience, and self-advocacy. Now in its third year, it has reached more than 1,000 students, giving them the tools to believe in themselves and thrive.
Today, I devote much of my work to women over 40—often self-sacrificing, resilient women who have poured themselves into caring for others while quietly losing touch with their own needs, identity, and joy. Many are navigating hormonal changes, shifting roles as children grow, career transitions, or questions of self-purpose. I help these women come home to themselves—reconnecting with their strength, courage, and peace so they can embrace this next chapter with confidence, clarity, and vitality.
In addition to my private coaching practice, The Moxy Life, where I work 1:1 with women using my signature framework, I also co-own Moxy Strong—a health and fitness community designed for women to come as they are and feel empowered through movement that supports our age and stage of life. Moxy Strong blends strength training, agility, and functional fitness with nutrition guidance, healthy recipes, mindset coaching, and accountability—creating a whole-woman approach to thriving.
I am also in the process of launching The Moxy Life App, a life and health coaching platform designed to give women access to monthly coaching, community, and accountability at a more accessible entry point than private coaching—meeting women where they are and helping them rise together.
My role is to hold space—for women and children alike—where healing, growth, and transformation can take root. Together, we simplify health and life into what truly matters, and build habits and mindsets that last a lifetime.
