Amanda McCormick

Watermelon Kisses

Amanda McCormick is a mom of five, a lifelong seeker, and a woman who has learned that being human is rarely neat or easily explained. Originally trained as a registered nurse, her path has expanded into trauma healing, energy work, breathwork, coaching, and spirituality — creating spaces where people can hear themselves, reconnect with themselves and the creator, and feel less alone. Her life has been shaped by love, loss, motherhood, mental health, addiction and recovery, complicated relationships, and the ongoing work of finding herself beneath it all. After her daughter's transition to spirit, her understanding of grief, resilience, and what it means to truly live deepened in ways she could never have anticipated.

Sheila Hamilton

Freeing Stone Baby

Sheila Hamilton's journey has been one of curiosity and continual growth. After years as a stay-at-home mom raising four children, she earned degrees in Business and Technology and built a 25+ year career in Silicon Valley high-tech as a project and program manager for global enterprise software. Alongside that work she has studied personal development, spiritual teachings, and mind-body-soul practices. She is a certified Life, Mindset, and Transformational Coach and practices Quantum Healing in her Intuitive Energy Work. Sheila believes that living fully means continually evolving — and that real joy and freedom grow when we listen to the soul asking to be heard, seen, and lived.

Miasia Egbeyoyin Ifasayo

Spirit & The Dance

Miasia Johnson brings 25+ years as a dancer, healer, and guide. Her journey began as a belly dancer, the first Black, plus-sized Raqasat on Egyptian and Turkish television, sharing stages with Dina, Fifi Abdo, and Birgul Beray. Since childhood she has walked a path of spiritual connection; one of her earliest memories is communicating with her ancestors at age five, when she was visited by her great-great-grandfather.

Susan Schnurrenberger

Lacing Up

Susan Schnurrenberger is a traveler at heart, happiest surrounded by nature, beneath mountains or simply outdoors. She loves the energy of soccer and sharing a good meal with good company. Friends often call her the “voice of reason,” a role she meets with humor and perspective. At the center of her life are friends and family, who make the journey meaningful. Curious by nature, she is always ready for somewhere new, different cultures, and new memories. For Susan, life is best when it's shared, explored, savored, and appreciated: no secrets, no apologies, simply being herself.

Vanessa Buttery

The Other Side of the Desk

Vanessa Buttery is a therapist, entrepreneur, speaker, and founder of Eloura Therapy. Her journey has been shaped by motherhood, determination, and a drive to create a life beyond what others believed possible. For years she chased success as something just out of reach — something she still had to prove she deserved. Building a career, becoming a business owner, and stepping into leadership taught her something different: the power she was searching for had been hers all along.

Today she is stepping into a chapter defined not by proving herself, but by owning who she has become — breaking the mold, taking back power, and letting go of voices that once defined what was possible.

Renée Bayard-Nolasco

Alchemy

Renée Bayard-Nolasco is a Certified Trauma-Informed Jungian Coach who supports others through self-reclamation. Her path began with healing from complex trauma and autoimmune disease, something she later learned affects thousands of women. When mainstream medicine fell short, she sought mentors in psychoanalysis, integrative medicine, psychedelics, and esoteric spirituality.

Renée also works with a team at a psychiatry and wellness clinic, helping shape integrative approaches to care. Her mission is to guide others through their wounds into embodiment of their true self and purpose.

Kelly Cleveringa

La Bella Vita

Kelly Cleveringa is a writer, speaker, mentor, and coach — and a lifelong student of what it means to live beautifully. Her path has included reinvention, unexpected detours, profound joy, and the sometimes scary practice of choosing what she actually wants. Along the way she discovered that a beautiful life isn't earned when we finally get everything right; it's created through the choices we make now.

Through her work, Kelly explores self-trust, courage, freedom, love, joy, and the art of living fully. She is the creator of Bella Vita, a playful invitation to become an active participant in your own beautiful life.

After navigating Hodgkin’s lymphoma in her teens and breast cancer in her 40s, Tosha gained a deep appreciation for resilience, balance, hope and what it takes to move forward.
