Interview with Rachel Kaplan
Rachel Kaplan, licensed psychotherapist in practice for 13 years, has been relentlessly studying the healing path since she was a young teenager when a tragedy ravaged her sense of normalcy and sent her desperately seeking healing. By 18, emotional healing was the focus of her high-school honors project.

She studied Western psychological methodologies in graduate school receiving her masters in Counseling Psychology. On top of this world spanning journey, she brings 15 years of teaching yoga, extensive training in cutting edge therapeutic modalities, thousands of psychotherapy sessions, and exposure to all kinds of alternative healing modalities.

Interview with Jennifer Lyall
I help established female entrepreneurs step into an energetic upward cycle of high vibration, leading to more opportunities, better clients and a huge expansion of impact & income.
No more…. Feeling constricted in your chest (worried about getting the results you want), sacrificing yourself trying to please clients, making wrong decisions (despite the intuitive red flags)….. working late, and waking up early in the morning feeling anxious and overwhelmed.
I’ll help you RE-ALIGN – so you can run a business that builds you up (instead of slowly but surely draining you of energy and joy).
When we take responsibility for how we are showing up, the energy that we bring to our life, we live life from a different perspective.
Life doesn’t just happen to us, it happens in response to us (ever get mad and yell at someone, only to have the energy reflected back to you?)
Being intentional about how you live takes focus and awareness, which can be a big shift if you’ve been going through the motion of your life, or if you have a level of awareness, but you’ve been too busy to pause and understand who you’re being in the moment.
