Karen Birdsall’s life is in a constant state of evolving, which she loves. She has learned much in her 60 years on this earth, one of which is becoming an essential oils educator and another is becoming an intuitive bodyworker.

Karen remembers well the day her father had some trout flown in and planted into the creek behind their house. She thought he had lost his mind!

Just after the trout were planted, she heard him yell for everyone to come out and rub the tummies of these trout. They all came running even though they had no idea what he was talking about. To their surprise and amazement, there were hundreds of trout and so many were "belly up". In order to save their lives, the family had to jump into the creek and rub their tummies. This balanced their equilibrium that was affected by their long journey in a helicopter. Soon, as they became balanced, they swam off to enjoy their new home.

Karen will never forget what she learned that day. Balance. She learned that even fish need balance when their environment changes. Balance creates harmony and gifts us the ability to enjoy swimming down our own river of life.

Who knew that her first massage clients were fish and that becoming an educator was because of her intuitive father teaching her how to save the life of a fish?

Keith Anthony Blanchard, author of Homecoming: Crossing the Bridge to the Soul, was born in Houma, Louisiana, and had a typical middle class Catholic upbringing.

In his early teens, he often entertained himself by pondering the big questions about God and the universe. Little did he know that the day would come when those questions would form the spiritual foundation upon which he would build the rest of his life.

In his late twenties, Keith went through a crisis that stripped him of everything he held dear and left him with no choice but to turn inward for answers. This he did, but the peace and stability he so wanted still eluded him.

When he was thirty-two, celestial beings began to appear to him, sharing glimpses of his future and the world's. Not only did they enlighten and guide him, they instructed him to pass their message on to others so that they, too, could learn a higher way of living.
​
Now in his fifties and living a peaceful, stable life, Keith continues to pursue his passion to both learn and teach about Truth.

Colm Holland is a writer, mentor, speaker, alchemy trainer and adventurer. For the last 50 years he has been on his alchemist journey and is learning something new every day about how Love can turn the ordinary in our lives into gold.

In 1993 Holland was a member of the international marketing team at one of the world’s leading publishers in Australia. One Friday he received the manuscript of The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. The book was already a local bestseller in its native Portuguese, but when Colm read it, he decided that the English translation would be an international bestseller—and it was, selling over 85 million copies worldwide. It has been translated into more than eighty languages and remains a New York Times bestseller twenty-five years after its initial publication. 

The story of The Alchemist is the story of a quest for personal treasure. Once we find our treasure it is vital that we give it away to the benefit of our world. This is true empowerment and the path to the gold is personal transformation. Colm’s new book, The Secret of the Alchemist, takes you into his personal journey with Paulo Coelho so you can be the alchemist in your world.

Ask Joanne DiMaggio what is her soul's purpose and she gives her answer with a smile: "I am a reporter for the Universe." Joanne says writing is part of her spiritual DNA and sees her soul's mission in this life to observe, record and disseminate information about her particular area of expertise in esoteric studies: soul writing and past life exploration.

A professional writer and author of six books and hundreds of magazine articles for both mainstream and esoteric audiences, in 1987 she began devoting all of her time to her esoteric studies, specializing in past life exploration, research and therapy. She eventually combined her passion for soul writing with her knowledge of reincarnation and today is considered a respected expert in both fields.

Born and raised in Chicago, Joanne has been actively involved with Edgar Cayce's Association for Research and Enlightenment (A.R.E.) since 1987. In 1990, she became one of the founding members of the A.R.E. Heartland Region headquartered in Chicago. There she oversaw the region's public relations, newsletter, and special event programming. She has been the Coordinator for the A.R.E. Charlottesville, VA team since August 2008.  Joanne was the founder of the Unity Holistic Healing Center, a service of Unity of Charlottesville, and served as its director from April 2013 to June 2020.

Joanne earned her Masters in Transpersonal Studies degree, now known as Transpersonal Psychology, through Atlantic University. Her thesis on inspirational writing served as the basis of her first esoteric book: Soul Writing: Conversing with your Higher Self. She also earned her Spiritual Mentor certification through Atlantic University, where she was named Outstanding Graduate of the year. She later formed A.U.'s Alumni Association, which she served as president for two years.

Joanne has given talks on the subject of past-life and life-between-lives exploration as well as soul writing to A.R.E., Unity and other audiences across the country.  In addition, Joanne has been the guest on over 70 national and international radio programs, including Coast to Coast AM and the Shirley MacLaine Show.

Joanne has been professionally pursuing past-life research and therapy for over 30 years. She is a graduate of the Eastern Institute of Hypnotherapy, completed additional training in hypnosis at the College of DuPage in Glen Ellyn, IL and studied under Dr. Irene Hickman, a pioneer in the field of non-directive hypnotherapy. The years she spent as the head of her own past-life research center enabled her to interact with some of the leading past-life therapists, authors, and other renowned practitioners from across the country.

In addition to Soul Writing, her other esoteric books include Your Soul Remembers: Accessing Your Past Lives Through Soul Writing;  Karma Can Be a Real Pain: Past Life Clues to Current Life Maladies; I Did It To Myself...Again! New Life-Between-Lives Case Studies Show How Your Soul's Contract Is Guiding Your Life; and Edgar Cayce and the Unfulfilled Destiny of Thomas Jefferson Reborn, scheduled to be published in January 2021. Joanne conducts  private past-life regressions, life-between-lives sessions, and soul writing sessions via Skype or Zoom.
