Through personal challenges and a lack of support from traditional western practitioners, Falyn struggled with various health concerns like digestive discomfort, insomnia, fatigue, hair loss, muscle soreness, an irregular cycle, and emotional eating. However, her journey led her to discover the transformative power of eastern modalities. Delving into Functional Diagnostic Nutrition, she gained profound insights that inspired her to become a certified Practitioner herself. Delving further into her well-being, Falyn found support and addressed difficulties related to sexual and childhood trauma, attachment, anxiety, iron dysregulation, and thyroid imbalances. Having experienced the frustration and loneliness of feeling like something was always missing, she now guides curious and driven health-minded women on a similar journey toward wholeness and vibrancy. Her approach is integrative and holistic, using functional lab testing, meditation, sonic healing, and somatic tools to help women reconnect with their inner power, vitality, and pleasure. Falyn embraces the motto "Heal Together, Rise Together."
3 Top Tips
1. support the WHOLE body instead of one part (ie. brain for mental health)
2. test don't guess (it's less stressful and gets you healing results faster)
3. know that vitality is your birthright, stay curious and keep moving toward it (symptoms are never the root cause)

After more than 3 decades as a veterinarian, exhaustion and burnout forced me to reconsider my future. I was overweight from a lifetime of soothing my emotional pain with food.
I found a Life Coach to learn how to get control of my emotional eating. What I actually happened was that I became a calmer, happier, less stressed-out person... and the weight loss happened all by itself.
I realized that Coaching changes lives. I saw my opportunity during the pandemic, and entered a coach training program. After completing my certification I discovered the Positive Intelligence program, which transformed my understanding of self-sabotage, and gave me the tools to change it.
Now, with years of training and decades of experience in a high-stress career, I’m on a mission to teach busy professionals how to live calmer, happier, and more stress-free lives. I especially want women to learn how to quiet the voice of their own self-judgment and rediscover the amazing person they were born to be.
Teaching others to meet life’s challenges with resilience and positivity is my mission and my inspiration.
3 Top Tips
The most life-changing skill that you can learn is to be nicer to yourself.
Emotional pain, fear of rejection, and fear of failure are the root of most self-sabotage
Most of us do not practice un-conditional self-love, and that is what causes so much of our stress

Kristof Morrow - Navy veteran, Journalist, and Author - Living and writing with a disability
I’m a veteran, author, and journalist that’s sold more than 1200 copies of my debut book, “The Second Sun,” after going viral on TikTok in June.
Growing up, I was the third born but the first to graduate high school. I was viciously abused by my parents. They both have suffered from some form of addiction.
I taught myself to write while serving in the US Navy as a Corpsman right after high school, and after leaving, I learned a University education wasn't for me, despite winning the highest award for short fiction and poetry at two different colleges in their annual creative writing contests.
While living in Louisiana, I was hired by a film director to help complete his script and got to work on a film set.
I became an EMT around the age of 23, then a 911 dispatcher at 26 before earning, by audition, a job at a newspaper. At this point, I was 27 years old and won awards from two Texas Press Associations for feature writing and photography. Amidst this time and in earlier years, I would exchange letters with Pulitzer Prize winning writer Robert Olen Butler.
My diagnosis of Tourette Syndrome led me literally to slapping, punching and clawing myself to success.

Bob Gardner is the Founder of The Freedom Specialist, a body based approach to happiness, health, and well-being. Bob is also the author of the book Built for Freedom and host of the podcast Alive and Free. As a Transformational Specialist Bob’s aim is to share his unique tools with the world that help them find happiness, health, and well-being on autopilot.
After 18 years of being trapped in addictive patterns, and on the brink of both divorce and suicide, something inside Bob told him it was not time to quit just yet. So, against the prevailing wisdom that said these problems are permanent, Bob chose to create a way to permanently eliminate them from his life.
His body-based, no-nonsense approach to freedom has since helped thousands of people leave their struggles behind and find real freedom and happiness. In addition, Bob’s intensive power packed in-person retreats, transformational coaching, and online resources have supported people struggling with everything from chronic pain, anxiety, depression, PTSD, childhood wounds, addictions, and OCD so they can finally take their life back and begin to thrive again.
