“Heart” and “Soul” are the words which come to mind when I think of Parish and she puts both of those into every event and gathering she’s created. I’ve been apart of her DoTerra Lunch and Learns, Meditation Circles, Retreats, Community Events and every time her passion for her Spirituality and Health and Wellness captivates me and everybody in the room. I’ve known Parish for over 35 years and she’s always had this free Spirit about her and is one of the most compassionate people I know. She has such a loving energy which draws you in instantly. She’s always thoughtful, caring, full of life and wants to know everyone she meets at their deepest level. Her light shines so bright and you can’t help but to be drawn into her energy.

“Parish devotes her entire being to nurturing her own spirituality and connecting with others to create a spiritual reality the world is thirsty for and this is why she has been able to attract thousands of people to come together to seek a deeper understanding of truths. I feel blessed to have become part of such a unique and diverse group of souls dedicated to the upliftment of each other. Her knowledge and desire to connect others in profound ways has proven she is a healer on many levels. Her studies to deepen her own spiritual practice continues to show her dedication to the healing arts of spirituality and the benefits of such a practice in her own life and others. Her beauty inside and out shows the brilliant light she was destined to shine in this world and the world unseen. Thank you Parish for this incredible service to humanity!”
Jen Hampton
“My wife, Jen Hampton, has attended several of Parish Hattub’s retreats in Atlanta and several other locations and the result on her spiritual growth and happiness has been astounding. Sometimes we think that such offerings benefit only the attendee, but truly that attendee brings back to their family and relationship a powerful wave of positive after-effects. Every time Jen comes home from a retreat or trip, she gathers our family to tell about how much she learned and we all see that her soul is so happy and optimized in such a way that our family is lifted to a new plain. She brings new light and perspective to us and she is a better person because of these opportunities and new friendships. We live in a world that is teeming with stress, heart-ache, depression and emptiness and it is tempting to fill our soul with the wrong choices: materialism, alcohol or worse. Parish seems to have found a remedy that makes her attendees feel whole again and I’m grateful to Parish and to everyone that makes the success of these retreats possible.”

“I have known Parish Hattub for over 15 years and she is most definitely the kindest and sweetest person out there. I cannot help but love her gentle spirit and her giving heart. Parish is a great mother and an amazing, generous friend. But most of all, she is a fearless, spirit-filled leader of the International Interfaith Women's group she founded and I have been a part of since early 2005. Started with just a handful of women, the group quickly grew to over 1000 members all over the world! And I am certain that all of us would agree that our lives are definitely better for being a part of this organization. Parish brought up so many different topics of discussion, volunteering opportunities, countless hours of spiritual guidance and meditation sessions, organized trips and retreats. I wish that I could name all of the wonderful experiences we've had together because of her selfless contribution!!!”
Elena Corbett
“I've been on two of Parish's getaway retreats and numerous weekly meditation circles that she has led. For me, the point of attending these events is to connect with God through my experience. That is indeed what takes place. By the time that I leave, I can literally feel God in the space we are in, and within myself. That feeling stays present in my spirit for a long time afterwards. Parish has a gift and a warmth about herself that helps people shift and grow spiritually. She has one of the most beautiful spirits that I have ever experienced. I'm grateful to know her and call her friend.”

“Authentic” is one of the best words to describe Parish Tofighian Hattub. The definition of authentic is “genuine, representing one’s true nature or beliefs”. You would be hard-pressed to find a better mentor for your life journey. There is SO very much I want to share about this phenomenal woman as I recommend you work with her, if not meet her or partake of one of her retreats or book club. No matter your belief systems or religious leaning, she embraces everyone’s innate, pure soul equally and does not “see” the body around it. Her outlook in the world is international and embracing of all cultures. Parish has THE biggest heart of anyone I have EVER met! She takes joy in everyone’s uniqueness and guides you to celebrate letting go of what no longer serves you, while exposing you to various spiritual tools and spiritual thought leaders. She fosters genuine gratitude for each and every moment. Parish comes to this space having worked through her issues and stumbling blocks in life herself. I have learned, and continue to learn, so very much from her. I have also appreciated and enjoyed participating in the various charitable events she and her husband sponsor and strongly support. As a mentor, who is an empath and intuitive, she guides us to relate to our true spirit, engage with our heart, not our head or ego, and use meditation and/or silence to calm the mind in order to listen to the messages from your higher self or the Divine. Supporting the empowerment of all women, she also makes it fun to experience our true nature. One of my favorite moments in life truly was at a retreat in Florida, USA, on the beach at night, when we each lit lanterns she provided, with our wishes and sent them off over the ocean (biodegradable of course). Parish provides a safe place for us to share our misgivings in life, our fears, our vulnerabilities and our pain. I am forever grateful that I have attended her weekly women’s gratitude meditation circle, as well as retreats and educational lectures on Doterra oils. I have witnessed the development of her dharma as a spiritual life coach - her true calling, without a doubt. Parish has supported me in searching for my true identity and gently guides me to manifest the life I desire and deserve. I cannot imagine my life without her and her myriad events that support my mind, body and soul.”
Jennifer Georgino
“Parish is one of the only people I know in my life who's inspires me in every move she takes. Her actions are truly inspiring, useful & full of love & passion. She is an inspiration to me and surely many other sisters who know her well. I wish I had found her earlier. The views of life that she has given me, have had a big effect in my life. Way to go girl, wishing you the best with every step you take in the future.”
Laila Safay
“I have had the pleasure of attending many events and retreats hosted by Parish Hattub of Spiritually Crafted and I look forward to many more! Parish is an amazing spiritual being and has the most beautiful heart that welcomes all humanity! She is extremely compassionate, knowledgeable, fun, talented, and passionate about health and wellness. Parish has a magnificent energy field that draws you in and its difficult to leave when you are in her company. Her retreats are always fun, informative, heart centered, and you always walk away a better person and wanting more! I have had the best time and learned so much from the events and retreats that Parish has hosted. I highly recommend joining her for the next one and I assure you that you will be back for more!”

“I have been a part of this group for 15 years and have enjoyed every minute of it. Parish is the most amazing leader, teacher organizer and generous soul with a heart full of love for everyone.I have been to almost everyone of her retreats and always leave feeling blessed, fulfilled with a new perspective on life. She teaches how to give and find good in everyone. Her retreats are well planned with fun and organized programs, special speakers, great food and the most awesome women ever We have shared, laughed and cried together as a group. I have seen her pour her heart and energy into preparing for the retreats for us all. Parish never looks for anything in return but gives unconditionally. She has touched every life that has come in her path. I am so looking forward to the next retreat and can’t thank you enough for the most amazing memories and experiences that I have gained. You are a true role model of a virtuous women.”

“My first retreat was Jan 2016 in the North Georgia. Mountains (not know what was going to happen 8 months later). I went looking to find out more about myself.. It was the love support and guidance of these beautiful ladies and the inspiring leadership from Parish Tofighain Hattub and Jazz Jones that made me feel that I was worthy of love compassion and I was loved and good just the way I was. ( I always work on being the best version of myself). It was through the workshops, talking and crying through the exercise What if. I truly had my breakthrough at the point and time on the first night of the retreat. they help me be more open and honest with myself and was able to let out what I was going through at the time. I know God put me in this time and place and I know he talked through those beautiful ladies to help and prepare me. If it was not for my God caring me and loving me and these beautiful ladies I know i would not be able to get through the death of my father ;my dog and divorce. You see the friendship love and compassion I have for these ladies and the wonderful leadership of Parish I don not know where I would be today. Thank you to a dear friend of mine who talked me on going on this retreat. It has opened my eyes and have built some wonderful sisterhood that I know I can count on them at anytime of the day or night. The love of God and the sisterhood of wonderful ladies is a must if you want to be strong courageous and knowing that your are loved.”

“Being friends with Parish has been one of the best things that has happened in my life. I have attended some of her retreats and meditation sessions and every single one of them has served my soul incredibly. She is an angel and a great spiritual teacher.”
Sheri Shahrzad
“Approximately 14 years ago I started something special and different, as a member of the Women’s Interfaith group. The group, led by Parish Hattub, is the reason I first started. I continue to attend events and sessions to serve humanity with sisters from across the world- a variety of race/ethnicity/religions. The group has. evolved since first starting. We also attend meditation with our group of sisters. I was unsure at first if I would like meditating, but have learned so much since attending and enjoy each session. Overall, I really enjoy the opportunity to meet women from all over and to listen to each of their stories. I appreciate that our environment is safe and comfortable. I am able to talk freely about my feelings and life experiences with these ladies without fear or judgement. Although I learn so much about everyones life experiences and wisdom, I also continue to grow personally. Every time I leave another session, I feel stronger than when I walked in. Parish has a kind and loving soul. She is always there when we need her and has been a source of positive energy for us all. She brings all of these women together in a sisterhood. She provides us connections and opportunities in the community to give back in ways of service to those less fortunate. It has been a beautiful experience over the many years. I look forward to the ongoing growth, both personally and spiritually in the years to come. I am so grateful and blessed to be a part of something extraordinary.”

“I’ve had the pleasure of attending a few of Parish’s beautiful events. What I love the most are the connections made with so many wonderful women from different backgrounds and nationalities. The love, support, and friendship that’s shared at a meditation gathering or international women’s sisterhood get together is authentic. So many lives have been touched by Parish and her magnificent light. I am beyond blessed to have mine be one of them.”
Lanada Chanel
“Words can not express the Gratitude, Love & Blessings I receive when I'm connected with Parish and her Leadership. My life has never been the same since becoming a part of her world in 2007. We have shared so many wonderful Memories, through Retreats, Vacations and just relaxing & Talking or Crying in the comfort of her Home or various locations. Parish has such a kind Spirit that affects others to want to be connected. I have learned, grown and understood who I am through her love & support. Parish never judged me! She is always uplifting & giving words of encouragement to look at life in a positive loving kind manner. Her Heart & Soul is so wonderful and such a Blessing from God. I am Proud & Grateful to be a part of her circle of enlightening Women of the World. I too, have truly been Blessed. I Love you & Forever & Beyond. I, Thank you for who you are.”
Dianne Hill
“I have been on so many retreats hosted by Parish Hattub that I’ve lost count. But what I haven’t lost count of are the countless memories and friendships that were born out of those retreats. A time for reflection, prayer, dancing and laughter- the connection is powerful and nothing you can get any other way. I am eternally grateful for having this spiritual sisterhood and bond and particularly for Parish who is an angel amongst us. She gives so generously from her heart and I can with 1000% certainty assure you that you will leave her retreat with your cup full and a feeling of utter joy and peace. Don’t miss out! Book your place right away and enjoy this once in a lifetime authentic experience.”

My Inspirational Guru
“I would like to take this opportunity to do a shoutout to my inspirational friend, who leads us through meditation, prayers, and gratitude weekly, always giving of herself. Parish always shows up, and gives 100% unconditionally. She is a truly blessed soul with a mission to heal the world and everyone she encounters. My best retreat was last year, when Parish organized and put into action a truly devotional weekend of gratefulness at the beach. Her guidance and organizational skills are truly a blessing. It was full of love, gratitude, education, and more fun than anyone can imagine. I will continue to be a part of all and any of these meditations. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Parish. May you continually be blessed with wisdom, love, and gratitude.”
Shanta Knight
“Parish facilitates unique retreat experiences by bringing together women from diverse backgrounds and creating space for them to form a sisterhood. The retreats are transformative both spiritually and socially. Spiritually, they provide time for reflection, meditation, prayer, and deep conversations. Socially, they allow women who come from different cultural, racial, religious, and socio-economic backgrounds to form bonds of genuine friendship centered around commonalities. She also offers gratitude meditation circles that give participants an opportunity to practice mindfulness through guided meditation. It’s like a nap for your tired soul. As she beats the drum, you begin to feel your heart beating in sync with the drumming, and your mind relaxes, your breathing slows down, and you are transported to a place where the spirit is free, not bogged down by the worries of life.”

“Hello my name is Arthlene Legair Lawrence and Im so honored and grateful to be a part of anything Parish does. I have participated in retreats, meditations, service projects that she has hosted and let me assure you, every event has been fulfilling, healing, empowering and educating. I’m so thankful for the opportunity to be a part of a group that empowers and encourage one another to be the best version of yourself, a group that support each other and is like family to me. My life has been change since joining the women’s group five years ago and for that I’m even more thankful.”
Arthlene-LeGair
“Parish is always such a joy to be around. Her energy is so light, sweet and caring with purpose. I feel like she is like a walking Mother Teresa by taking on the heaviness of the world while standing for peace and healing. It warms my heart to gather with Parish and the ladies she brings into her circle. Although I have only attended the cruise, it was a joy to be in the midst of all that feminine energy. Can’t wait to see how she continues impacting the world. I love her.”

“I have been beyond blessed to have this amazing group of women, placed into my life. I've made some of the most enriching and incredible life affirming and shaping relationships. I have been surrounded by nothing but positive and beautiful people. I've learned that a positive attitude qualifies me for positive experiences. I count by blessings everyday, for my extended family. I have been beyond blessed to have this amazing group of women, placed into my life.

Jacqueline Clark
“God has created some people with extraordinary mind power and abilities to makes other people feel better, give them hope, listen to them, say a right word, smile at them and rock their world. That person is Parish. She is Loyal, Kind, Positive, Energetic, Lovely and of course so Gorgeous. When every door is closed hers is open to let us in, to hold us, to calm us down, to pray for us, to show us the light of hope and tell us “Everything will be Fine, You are not Alone”. I always can lean on her, laugh with her, cry on her shoulders and share my difficulties without fear of judgment. I am so lucky and blessed to have her in my life as an amazing friend, guidance, mentor, teacher and sister. Please continue loving me, guiding me, forgiving me and taking me under your wings like you have done over the past decade.”
Farah Ofogh
“Coming across Parish and her spiritual meditation group has helped me out tremendously in my healing journey. Parish was truly a gift and I am eternally grateful to have met such a kind and gifted woman. She finds a way to bring different people from different beliefs and cultures together and helps them find and heal themselves from whatever hurt they are going though. I am glad Parish is finding new ways to reach out to more people. This world definitely needs more of Parish.”
Maria Kozlova
“Parish has become one of my role models in my life for last 5 yrs .. 1st time I met her in her new house in one of her gatherings, she sat w me & we bonded & connected within 15 min.. I’ve been amazed by her passionate work(no matter what type of work it is) she puts her heart in to anything, you name it, she has a sweet angel voice, beautiful face & gigantic heart. I remember another time in our gatherings I was talking to her & someone came & disturbed us, in that crowd she never turned her eyes off of me & continued talking to me & I felt very special, cz that was my time to talk to her & she honored that. All these little things make some people MORE special & more exceptional, There was another time my heart was achy & I was very emotional, there she was w her fabulous group, I was there to connect & I never forget that night my whole week & month turned around the clip she showed us she put me at the right direction to make a few changes & I was happy again.. I don’t know how she does it but she connects w your heart & sole & fixes you right back up, back on your feet again.. Her taste in house, decorations, garden, fashion,....you name it she’s on the very top. We’re not close friends but I love her very much.”
Bita Keshdavi
“I was blessed to be a part of a women’s retreat led by Parish. I loved the diversity of women. It’s beautiful to be a part of her retreats, it speaks to your soul on a deeper level. Community, friendship, acceptance ~ these are a few of the things you’ll get to experience. I highly recommend it.”
