Cecilia Berkley Featured in Voyage Phoenix: A Story of Healing, Purpose, and Holistic Beauty

We are honored to celebrate our owner, founder, and CEO, Cecilia Berkley, for her recent feature in Voyage Phoenix, a publication known for spotlighting inspiring voices and visionary entrepreneurs throughout greater Arizona. In her interview, Cecilia opens her heart, sharing a deeply moving story of transformation, faith, and purpose, one that continues to touch lives through her work at Cecilia Berkley Holistic Spa and Corazón Organic Beauty.

From the moment you meet Cecilia, her presence is grounding—a reflection of the same energy she infuses into every treatment, product, and guest experience. In her interview, she shared that the first 90 minutes of her day are sacred, devoted to gentle rituals that center her body and soul. Each morning begins with gratitude, prayer, and a mindful tonic—simple acts of intention that set the tone for the day ahead. “It’s a grounding moment of care,” Cecilia explains, “that helps me ease into the day mindfully.”

This devotion to intentional living mirrors the philosophy behind her spa—a serene sanctuary in North Scottsdale that honors the connection between beauty, wellness, and spiritual restoration.

“My purpose is to remind women that beauty is not something to chase—it is something to remember,” she shares. “It lives in presence, self respect, and the quiet confidence of a woman who knows her worth.”

When asked to describe who she was before the world told her who to be, Cecilia reflects with poetic honesty:

“Before the world spoke its expectations, I was a dreamer—wild, gentle, and certain of my light… Life reshaped me, through loss and seasons of forgetting. But beneath it all, the little girl who dreamed never disappeared. I searched for her, and I found her again.”

It is this spirit of rediscovery, softness, and strength, that defines both Cecilia and her brand. Every treatment at Cecilia Berkley Holistic Spa embodies this same balance of grace and power, weaving traditional techniques with modern refinement and emotional healing.

In the Voyage Phoenix feature, Cecilia also opened up about one of the most profound parts of her journey:

her healing process and the defining wounds that shaped her path. “There was a time when I felt everything within me was breaking,” she shares. “But in that stillness, when everything fell apart, I began to listen. The breaking was not the end—it was the invitation.”

From this period of surrender and transformation, Corazón Organic Beauty was born. The name “Corazón,” meaning “heart,”

symbolizes the place from which she was restored. Cecilia’s products are more than skincare, they are sacred tools of self-connection, lovingly formulated to nourish both skin and spirit.

When asked what truly matters to her, Cecilia’s answer was simple and profound:

“God is the center of my life—the source of my strength, clarity, and purpose. Family is my heart. I believe in loving with devotion, in giving with sincerity, and in keeping my circle small but meaningful.”

This deep sense of purpose radiates through her spa and her team. Guests often share that after visiting, they feel not only rejuvenated on the outside but renewed from within. Cecilia’s ability to hold space for others, to seamlessly create an environment where peace, healing, and authenticity coexist, is what continues to truly set her apart.

As for the legacy she hopes to leave, her words encapsulate her life’s mission beautifully:

“I hope people remember me for how I made them feel. That in my presence, they felt seen, loved, 

and cared for. That my spaces were places where hearts could rest and souls could breathe.”

Cecilia’s story reminds us that true beauty is not perfection, it’s presence. It’s the quiet strength that comes from living with faith, gratitude, and love. Through her spa, her brand, and her unwavering commitment to holistic living, she continues to make an extraordinary impact on the community, and on individual lives, one treatment at a time.
