Join me and Monique Pantel as we have a candid conversation about life, work, and the pursuit of balance. From the challenges of saying 'no' to double headers in photography to the joys of teaching and hosting retreats in the serene beauty of Panama, we explore it all. Discover the essence of a life well-lived, creative pursuits, and the importance of setting boundaries. 

About Monique Pantel: 

Monique Pantel is an internationally acclaimed photographer and educator whose career has spanned over a decade, marked by a deep passion for connecting the realms of creativity and soul work - her speciality is in the luxury wellness space and capturing love in wild places. Monique is currently working on opening Alma: a women’s artist residency and tiny art gallery in the jungle of Panama, where she lives. Most days you can find Monique playing in the low tide or in waterfalls with her toddler and baby daddy - who runs Pizzeria Madera - a wood fired pizzeria in their front yard.

Since becoming a mother, she is particularly passionate about encouraging other mothers to become re-aquaninted with their own creativity, especially through photography. 

Monique teaches newbies how to use their cameras in her transformational course Photo 101 and also mentors women photographers into expansive careers in photography through her Clueless to Clients mentorship, which happens twice a year.

Monique is a Pic-Time ambassador and her work has been seen in publications like Europe's Conde Nast Traveller, Mantra Magazine, and The Wall Street Journal.
