Over the last year, Margo Davis and her husband, Michael, have not only fine-tuned the services offered at Fate Into Destiny Wellness Center in Willoughby, but they have added to their skillsets.
Located at 38021 Euclid Ave., Fate Into Destiny’s services have been separated into personal development and energy healing. Through personal development coaching, shadow work, empowerment coaching and relationship coaching are provided. Energy healing services include reiki, crystal reiki and now distance reiki, which allows Margo to offer reiki online.
“We’re looking forward to being able to provide to a wider audience,” said Margo, founder of Fate Into Destiny. “The community’s response has been consistent. We’ve been able to reach a diverse group of people. That’s part of the reason why we’re here. We live in this community, so we want to be able to serve Lake County.”
Since rebranding the business, Michael said he has become more attentive to what’s going on in the office as well as creating the atmosphere.
“It’s a good feeling to know we incorporate what we do in how we live,” he said, noting that the two went through intensive online training and have received their certificates to be peer recovery supporters to bring more clients into the Willoughby space.
At the time Fate Into Destiny started, Margo was working in corporate America at a job she thought she would retire from. After being downsized from that position, she learned she had a chronic, medical condition and soon fell into depression.
That prompted her to seek the support of a life coach.
The support Margo received inspired her to want to give the same type of support to others, which led her to enlist in a training program with The Ford Institute of Transformational Training in San Diego. She and her husband were then further inspired to bring this type of work to the Lake County community.
Fate Into Destiny originally opened in Wickliffe. Since opening in Willoughby two years ago, the Willoughby Western Lake County Chamber of Commerce has had a hand in helping Fate Into Destiny merge in with the community, Michael said. A ribbon cutting for the wellness center recently took place.
“We’ve had opportunities to participate with the chamber, going to different coffee networking activities,” Margo said. “We did a facelift on our website. It’s appointment only, but we’ve been consistently moving forward and pivoting. All of what we do is based on how we feel together and what our purpose, and our passion is. It’s a blessing to be in an encore of our lives, to be providing this together and doing what we both love to do.”
Margo is now a certified mindfulness coach, focusing on mediation and visualization for clients. In addition, Michael went through personal development coaching and has been trained as a reiki practitioner.
“Now, I have a reiki partner,” Margo said. “Michael and I are really like an open book, so I think people are drawn to us because we’re authentic in this space. We’re like we’ve been where you are and we understand.”
In addition to becoming peer recovery supporters, the pair are also certified with the Ohio Department of Mental Health. It’s their way of giving back what the community has given them thus far, Margo said.
“Our cousin, Kesha, was working with us,” she said. “She’s since moved on. She’s working with her children, which is going great. We had to make a little pivot, but I was able to bring Michael in closer to what we’re doing, which has been an amazing experience for us personally, as well s professionally.”
Margo and Michael have also completed their training in being relationship workshop facilitators. The certificates that now hang on the wall in their space attest to it, Margo said.
“We’ve been providing small group experiences for couples and singles, as well as personal one-ones,” she said. “We’re helping people to become more empowered to love and honor themselves through aligning with their higher self.”
Margo finds importance in people actively taking steps to align with their personal high self in order to have relationships with anyone whether it’s with a boss, a significant other, a sibling or a child.
“We also talk about how you can identify who you are as a unique individual,” Margo said.
Going forward, she and Michael will be open to opportunities intended to enhance their skills. Aside from shifting her focus to providing more services online to reach more people, Margo hopes to partner with businesses who are looking to support their employees.
“Everything we do is personalized,” she said. “My long term vision is to be able to have a facility similar to this where we can employ people so that Michael and I, and our employees can travel with this. We want to be able to take this on the go.”
