#27 Julie Ann & Casa de Influencia, Creating Community in Puerto Vallarta

Stephanie & Aprils's guest this week is Julie Ann. Julie Ann helps authors publish their dream novels. Now, Julie has created a space where authors can bring their workshop clients to in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. The name of her community retreat is Casa de Influencia (House of Influence). Julie's retreat space is a transformed apartment with ten family living spaces. She has turned one of the apartments into her home. One of the apartments has been renovated into a co-working space with three podcast recording suites. One of the recording spaces could even be used by a band to record their music. Julie has turned the rooftop space of the apartment building into a dancing space. She had wood floors installed for salsa dancing, she brought up a ton of plants to the roof to create a serene garden, and there is even a bar and hot tub to help her guests relax in style.

When you are headed to Puerto Vallarta, next look up Julie in Old Town Puerto Vallarta!
