"I realized I enjoyed talking about each topic and applying it to myself. I'm now able to talk abot myself more easily, as before I couldn't even say what I liked about myself. I also feel more emotionally mature and able to articulate my thoughts efficiently and clearly. It was also calming to be able to talk in a no-judgement zone..."
​-Kinsely B. (16 years old)

Facilitators

- Neferisha Johnson 
25 year veteran educator who has traveled the globe to know herself and fellow co-creators. Her focus over the past 20+ years has been to empower youth through the spoken and written word as a literature teacher who has taught in 3+ states and one foreign country. What she knows about youth and people for that matter is, everyone wants to be heard. Because she has always seen her self as much a student as she is a teacher, she has had great success in bringing forth the most beautiful versions of her clients. Her vision has allowed her to create a life full of beauty, wellness and love.
- Damon Givehand
Damon is a yogi, modern mystic who connects dots with the mundane, and the author of YOGA,Truth, & The Real Fountain of Youth (zeroth Edition), which is the silver lining.  Damon’s fervor for thinking and learning (i.e. “doing the real math of Life”) is obvious to anyone in regular conversation with him, especially as these relate to discerning Truth from illusion, reversing dis-ease, maximizing health, undoing indoctrination and programming, becoming more aware and conscious, cultivating optimal inner-tranquility, and actualizing our fullest potential.
