Elaine La Joie is a shaman and certified life coach. She has been in private practice since 2002 helping Empaths heal old traumas and patterns so that they can create the lives and relationships that they really want.

Before Elaine opened her practice she worked at the University of Texas Austin in the psychology department and at the Oregon Medical Laser Center as a researcher. Elaine holds degrees in physics and applied physics. She realized a few years into this career path that she was jealous of the other researchers who loved their careers. This, plus a psychic opening led her in a completely new and unexpected direction.

Not wanting to advertise as a psychic, Elaine went into Life Coaching instead. She trained with Coach For Life, became certified, and then was horrified when all her clients started asking for readings or training. After a few more years of resistance Elaine trained with the Four Winds Society and later with Marv Harwood of Alberta Canada.

Elaine maintains a limited private practice so she can concentrate on writing. She lives in Oregon with her family.

Lauren Sapala is a writer, writing coach, and the author of The INFJ Writer. She began working with blocked writers in 2009 when she founded the WriteCity writing group in Seattle, and then expanded the program to San Francisco in 2010. She became a full-time writing coach in 2013, working as an advocate for writers in one-on-one sessions designed to help bring the writer's creative dreams into existence with unconditional love and support.

After a heartbreaking experience in college when a creative writing professor told her that she should "give up writing" and find something to do at which she might actually be successful, Lauren stopped writing for seven years. It was only when she stumbled upon an unconventional writing group based on the format of Alcoholics Anonymous that she started writing again and discovered her own creative gifts. Taking this newfound knowledge with her, Lauren started her own writing group using the same method. She called it WriteCity and advertised it as a place for writers to come to write silently for one hour, without being critiqued. To her surprise, a very particular kind of writer began to populate the group: sensitive, intuitive writers who were paralyzed by self doubt.

Lauren began to see that intuitive writers come to the creative process in a radically different way from the norm. Intuitive writers are stifled by plotting and planning every little detail before they begin writing their stories. Their works are heavily character-focused, with a distinctive emphasis on psychology, myth and archetype, and the lessons for humanity found hiding behind almost every storyline. Intuitive writers have difficulty writing quickly and are more sensitive to criticism, or even suggested changes, to their works in the revision process. Combining her own personal experience as an intuitive introvert with the experiences of her clients. Lauren decided to write a book detailing the unique temperament and creative process of sensitive writers. And so The INFJ Writer was born.

Lauren's articles on creativity, personality theory, and sensitive intuitive writers can be found on her blog. In between coaching writers, and wrangling her two-year-old son, she's currently working on her next book, Between the Shadow and Lo, an autobiographical novel detailing her alcoholic years in Seattle. Between the Shadow and Lo will be available in spring 2017.

Patrick Prohaska has always had a keen scientific interest in the mysteries of the world. For his undergraduate degree he studied History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Kansas, where he specialized in the history of chemistry, from its Medieval roots in alchemy through the scientific revolution. He carried his passion for scientific analysis into his Master's Degree program in Asian Religions, with an emphasis on ancient India. In his doctorate program he is "ABD" for a degree in Religion in Modern India.

Throughout his academic career, Patrick dabbled in various healing modalities, trying them out in a scientific manner to see which ones worked for him. He studied the Radiance Technique version of Reiki, became an expert in aromatherapy and herbal medicine, and developed a thriving massage therapy practice in Brescia, Italy in the early 1990s. He also taught skills in graduate school, and served for a year as a visiting professor of Philosophy and Religion at Coe college in central Iowa.

Like many students, Patrick funded his education working in the restaurant industry, and by the time he was ready to write his dissertation he'd already been General Manager of two upscale restaurants. When university support for low-profit programs such as Asian Religions began to dry up he decided to abandon teaching and instead embrace a career in restaurant management.

This led him to San Francisco and Los Angeles, two markets in which the upscale restaurant industry can be absolutely cut-throat. Over the years he held management positions at some of the most prestigious restaurants in the nation, jobs that many restaurateurs would have sold their soul to get. But he felt dead inside. He jumped from job to job, hoping to find a position that he could finally be happy with, but each one was progressively less satisfying than the last. Where were the Reiki principles? Where was the yoga mindset? He spent 12-14 hours a day, six days a week, running from crisis to crisis and butting heads with some of the most inflated egos in the industry. In the end he collapsed and found himself in the hospital with stress and anxiety-related respiratory issues. He hit rock bottom, lost everything, and vowed to once again live life on his own terns, from a place of personal power.

His first step was to dive once again into the universal principles and practices that had previously brought him joy. He studied Law of Attraction life coaching with a prominent coaching academy, received multiple certifications in Theta Healing, and became a certified practitioner and teacher of Awakening Dynamics. Eventually he synthesized his own system, Thrive Energetics, which blends Law of Attraction life coaching principles with powerful morphogenetic field activations and subconscious reprogramming.

Patrick is based in Northern California, and is available for lectures, seminars, and workshops around the globe.

Deborah learned a long time ago that the key to true happiness meant moving away from it.

She realized at an early age, through the loss of her mom at 17 and her dad leaving before the age of 2, that running away from herself, her emotions and her pain only caused more of it, and that your only true way out is in. Today, she embraces it all to feel the light in the darkness, the joy in the sadness and the perfection in the pain. With this, she coaches women to know true joy, peace and trust, no matter what's occurring, and most importantly, to celebrate and relish in this crazy, juicy, up-and-down thing we call life.

When she's not clearing energy blocks & childhood patterns, writing for The Huffington Post and Elephant Journal or hosting Truth Talk Radio, you can find Deborah working out and traveling the world, savoring its beauty, people, culture and adventures.

Ora Nadrich is a certified Life Coach, certified Mindfulness Meditation teacher, and author of Says Who? How One Simple Question Can Change The Way You Think Forever.

New York Times best-selling author, Marianne Williamson says, "Ora Nadrich is a treasure. Her voice bears the passion of her own experience; she's able to reach deep into our hearts because she's culled so much wisdom from her own. When she speaks, I listen; when she writes, I read it; when she gives advice, I heed it. Her sparkle and power are not to be missed."

If there is an overriding philosophy that Ora ascribes to, it is this: you can help yourself solve your own problems, you can do it daily, and the process doesn't need to be complex. Flying in the face of the often oblique language of the self help movement, Ora prides herself on not only having devised a method of self discovery and mindful practice that is simple, direct and applicable to everyone, but is also easy to understand and put to use. And, like brushing your teeth, can be done daily and take about as much time. Simplicity is her mantra.

That philosophy forms the basis of, "Says Who? How One Simple Question Can Change the Way You Think Forever," in which Ora vividly illustrates and breaks down her simple, yet highly effective method, based on the principle that while we all face obstacles and negative thoughts in our lives, it is not enough to simply examine and be aware of them - we must question and challenge them in order to bring about true change.

Many of the obstacles people face are the result of their own negative thoughts holding them back. And often those thoughts don't even originate within them; they're the ideas or opinions of someone else -- a critical parent or angry spouse, for instance -- which they believe without questioning to see if they're even real or true. Since thoughts create beliefs -- which then create behavior -- negative thoughts are dangerous things to leave unchecked. You must question them, and challenge them, "Says Who?" shows us how.

More than simple "think positive" slogans and inspirational platitudes, "Says Who?" provides practical, tangible steps to tackling a condition that affects us all: negative thoughts.

Ora's wok has been featured in Women's Health, LA Yoga, Elevated Existence, Conscious Lifestyle, Yahoo Health, Huffington Post, Mental Health, News Radio, Spirituality & Health, Thrive Magazine, Success Magazine and many other publications.
