Meet the founders of Monchique Hills
Marc Ansari,
Justine Lamboley and their 8-year-old daughter
Justine and Marc are the souls behind Monchique Hills. Partners in life and in vision, they have walked a path that led them to fully align with their shared mission: to create a sanctuary of regeneration, peace and freedom โ a place where each person can return to themselves and to what truly matters.
Justine is a certified naturopath (Heilpraktikerin), mentor in naturopathy and online business coach for women seeking a more aligned, free and vibrant life.
She has written 7 Amazon best-sellers on health and fasting, launched a successful online business in 2017, and hosts spiritual retreats in France and Portugal.
Marc holds a PhD in clinical psychology, is a geobiologist and a specialist in therapeutic fasting since 2016. Since 2021, he also builds ecological homes in Portugal. A serial entrepreneur, he previously created several ventures in tourism, human services and travel. He is passionate about the connections between humans, spaces, and holistic balance.
Together, they envisioned Monchique Hills as a nature-based sanctuary, designed for deep transformation, healing, and a new way of inhabiting the Earth.
(Their daughter Elisha has also led them to rethink education โ how future generations must be deeply rooted in nature while being equipped with regenerative entrepreneurship and forward-thinking financial literacy for the good of people and the planet.)
