Quantum Healing Hypnotherapist

Aura Youniverse

Can't wait!

02/10/24

Helping people around the world to reclaim their sovereignty is my biggest joy. Born with an active extrasensory perception, since childhood I've been aware of our multidimensional aspect and practiced energy work in various ways throughout my life. My NDE from March 2008 provided an even deeper understanding of our essence and life itself. It amplified my passion for psychology, philosophy, Buddhism, hypnotherapy, Dolores Cannon's work and drove me to practice quantum healing and energy alchemy.

Topics

Liberation through Integrity and personal truth. All of the topics mentioned above "stress, anxiety, burnout, boundaries, bullying in the workplace, mindfulness in business" - and mindfulness in our everyday life are interconnected and highly important to manage in order to liberate ourselves and step into our authentic essence.

Clinical psychologist, executive coach, and pioneering researcher of spiritual intelligence

Yosi Amram

None

14/08/24

Yosi Amram, PhD, is a distinguished psychologist, an executive coach
catering to CEOs, entrepreneurs, and other influential leaders, and a
pioneer researcher in the field of spiritual intelligence. Holding an MBA
from Harvard University and a PhD from Sofia University in Clinical
Transpersonal Psychology, Dr. Amram is committed to enabling individuals
to unlock their boundless potential through spiritual intelligence, which is a
profound connection to the core of one’s existence – their spirit, where
inspiration and their deepest interconnectedness reside – that enriches
their overall functioning, improves their effectiveness, and enhances their
wellbeing.
In his role as a leadership coach, Dr. Amram has worked with more
than one hundred CEOs, serving as a trusted advisor and mentor for these
leaders who work for a broad spectrum of businesses, from fledgling
startups to large corporations. Additionally, Dr. Amram serves as a
psychologist, working with individuals, couples, and groups. His
proficiencies encompass executive counseling, couples therapy, addressing
mental health concerns, and facilitating spiritual growth. He possesses
considerable experience in dealing with matters related to gender, sexuality,
grief, aging, and end-of-life issues.
In his research into spiritual intelligence, Dr. Amram pioneered the
creation of the first academically recognized spiritual intelligence theory
along with an associated model for Spiritually Intelligent Leadership. His
research has garnered over a thousand citations to date.
Dr. Amram is the author of Spiritually Intelligent Leadership: How to
Inspire by Being Inspired, which offers a compelling roadmap that equips
leaders with the means to connect with the true source of their authentic
power and presence deep within themselves.
Prior to psychology and executive coaching, during a 13-year period,
Dr. Amram founded and served as the CEO for Individual Inc. and Valicert,
two highly successful tech companies that he led through successful IPOs.
Previously, right after high school, Dr. Amram was drafted and
served in the Israeli Air Force for three years, quickly moving up the ranks
and holding the fastest promotion record in the history of his regiment.
However, his experience in the military sparked his desire for a more
compassionate and human approach to leadership, marking the beginning
of his interest in this area.
In addition to his PhD from Sofia University in Clinical Transpersonal
Psychology, and an MBA from Harvard University, Dr. Amram received an
MS in electrical engineering and computer science as well as his BS from
M.I.T. He is the founder of several non-profits, including
trueMASCULINITY.org and Engendering-Love.org.

Topics

In an interview with the Mindful Leadership Podcast, Dr. Amram could address:

What spiritual intelligence is in greater detail, and how it differs and complements emotional intelligence.
How spiritual intelligence can enhance mindfulness, leadership, and overall well-being.
Practical strategies for developing spiritual intelligence, such as techniques for inner reflection and breath awareness.
His personal journey and how it has informed his work in helping individuals and leaders reconnect with their hearts and souls.
Dr. Amram's profound insights on spiritual intelligence can resonate deeply with your audience, providing them with tools to live more mindful, inspired, and fulfilling lives. I would welcome the opportunity to connect you with him.

Movement and Mindset Coach

Suncharged Warrior

None

09/07/24

After surviving a near-death experience in a mass shooting, Caytie began to re-examine her outlook on life, healing, self-love, and spirituality. On her healing journey, she discovered the positive impact that intentional movement and prioritizing sunlight could have on her mindset and inner empowerment. Over time, she worked on releasing her limiting beliefs about herself, such as insecurities around her body, low self-esteem in her relationships, her entrepreneurial goals, and a lack mindset. Through this inner work and building awareness, she realized her passion for helping others heal themselves—body, mind, and spirit—and has been developing herself as a movement and mindset coach to share her message.
Caytie desires to help others combine movement, grounding, a healthy circadian lifestyle, and a daily self-love practice to raise vibrations and achieve vitality. She believes in tuning into our hearts to embody love and consciously choosing who we want to be daily, rather than merely existing as who we've always been so that we can live purposefully and find our inner joy and peace.

Topics

The stress of not living our purpose and what happens when we step into authenticity instead. I believe a big source of our stress and anxiety (and maybe burnout) comes from all the time and energy we lose when we don't follow our dreams and have a mindset that believes we aren't capable of even achieving them. But through mindfulness and deep self-love, we can begin to release disempowering beliefs, start embodying who we really are, and find ways to pursue our purpose with passion and conviction. And the old fears and anxieties melt away!
