We had the good fortune of connecting with Chiara Kevorkian and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Chiara, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
Starting Alma Holistic Healing was born from a deep, personal calling to help others find union and wellness within. After years of traveling the world and pursuing extensive training to offer my services with authenticity, care, and integrity, I felt ready to bring all my ideas together into one cohesive business. The process involved having a clear vision that came from the heart and balancing creativity with the practical aspects of running a business—something I was very fortunate to receive lots of guidance with. While challenges arise, each step helps me grow both professionally and personally, deepening my commitment to guiding others on their unique paths to self-discovery, spirituality, transformation and balance.
I truly believe we are living in a pivotal time when connection with ourselves, others, and Nature is essential for our collective evolution. Alma is my way of contributing to this process, offering my grain of sand to support holistic awareness in the world.
The main therapies that I use are Reiki, Yoga, Sound Bath Meditation, Tarot, Astrology, Thai BodyWork and I also curate and hand-make Aromatherapy products.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
My work at Alma Holistic Healing is centered around guiding individuals through transformative journeys, using a blend of different modalities. What sets me apart is how I tailor each experience to the individual’s needs, fostering a deep sense of connection.
One of the things I’m most proud of is the safe, nurturing space I create for clients and students, weather it is in individual sessions or group classes/workshops.
Over the years, I’ve built meaningful relationships based on trust and authenticity.
What excites me the most is the constant growth I experience as both a professional and a person. The more I learn, the more I’m able to offer to those who come to me for guidance and support.
My journey was not without its challenges. Building a business in the wellness space requires a lot of hard work, determination, consistency and learning along the way. From learning about the practicalities of business management, there were moments of self-doubt. But overcoming those challenges taught me the importance of resilience and staying aligned with my vision. The support I received from mentors, clients and friends has been invaluable in navigating the ups and downs.
The most important lesson I’ve learned is that progress from stepping outside of your comfort zone and trusting the process. It’s about embracing the path and allowing yourself to evolve as you go.
I want the world to know that Alma Holistic Healing is not just a business—it’s a passion-driven project built on the belief that we all have the power to nurture our Mind, Body and Spirit. My mission is to be of service by assisting people towards a deeper connection, as individuals and members of the greater whole. The idea is to walk together towards awareness, empowerment, harmony and integration.
I have been, still am and always will be committed to the path of Union.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
If my best friend were visiting Miami Beach, I’d craft an itinerary that blends relaxation, nature and culture. We’d take sunset walks at South Pointe Park and get smoothies and healthy bites at Under the Mango Tree. Explore the Botanical Gardens in South Beach (which is one of my favorite spots!) and enjoy a Vespa rides along the Venetian Causeway. Also, go to Lincoln Road Farmers Market and explore the charming Sunset Harbor neighborhood with its cozy cafés and boutiques, and spend time unwinding at the beach in Surfside.
We’d also make time to stop by Books & Books in Coral Gables for an afternoon of browsing and good coffee!
Of course I would also bring them to to my group Sound Bath classes!

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
Every mentor, guide, teacher, friend, supporter and all those who have given me work opportunities and believed in me along the way have played a significant role in helping me get to where I am today. I am deeply grateful for each and everyone of you!
