Melissa Mueller-Douglas, LMSW
Founder & CEO
I’m a mindfulness expert, licensed master social worker, and founder & CEO of MYRetreat. My journey has taken me from the volleyball court to countries around the globe, and through it all I’ve discovered this truth: keeping busy isn’t enough—real success requires presence, resilience, and mindful leadership.
At MYRetreat, I design Chocolate Mindfulness™ experiences that replace outdated trust falls with engaging, sensory-based team building. By combining mindful chocolate tasting with proven reflection practices, I help organizations strengthen focus, resilience, and collaboration—while giving teams a memorable shared experience.
I partner with forward-thinking companies that value ingenuity and understand that workplace wellness is directly tied to performance and growth. Together, we create an environment where professionals feel supported, teams thrive, and leaders can show up with confidence and clarity.
My mission is bold yet simple: to impact 1 million professionals through the practice of Chocolate Mindfulness™—transforming workplace culture one mindful bite at a time.
