Cynthia Abulafia is an author, educator, and yoga therapist rooted in a Shakta–Tantra lineage, devoted to reclaiming the body as an essential site of spiritual wisdom. Her work centers on undoing what she names “transcendence bias” in patriarchal spirituality—the tendency to privilege disembodiment, hierarchy, and abstraction over lived, relational experience. Drawing from non-dual sacred texts, subtle body anatomy, movement science, and trauma-informed practice, Cynthia offers accessible tools for integrating spiritual insight into everyday life. Her upcoming book, Embodying the Goddess, weaves ancient wisdom with contemporary somatic understanding, guiding seekers back into agency, resilience, and embodied presence—especially those navigating religious trauma or life beyond rigid traditions. Cynthia’s teaching blends breathwork, movement, ritual, and contemplative inquiry, creating bridges between philosophy and practice. She is particularly passionate about supporting individuals and communities who feel “in-between” belief systems, helping them cultivate spiritual imagination, grounded integration, and a renewed relationship with the sacred through the body.

Prashanthi Amarnath is a writer, engineer, and contemplative practitioner whose work bridges ancient Taoist wisdom with the complexity of modern life. Drawing from her background in engineering and her lifelong engagement with multiple spiritual traditions, she brings a grounded, practical approach to inner work—one that honors both structure and surrender. Her debut book, Embracing Paradox, translates Taoist teachings into clear, accessible practices for navigating uncertainty, stress, and change. Through reflections on Wu Wei, openness, and paradox as a source of resilience, Prashanthi invites readers to move beyond rigid thinking and into a more adaptive, spacious way of being. Rooted in daily practice and lived experience, her writing speaks especially to those balancing work, family, and spiritual seeking. By weaving philosophical insight with actionable habits, Prashanthi offers a path toward clarity and peace that feels both timeless and deeply relevant—meeting life not by resisting its contradictions, but by learning to live within them.

Wren Morrow is an outdoor boudoir and erotic adventure photographer based in the Pacific Northwest. Best known for her moody edits, whimsical flair, and unflinching authenticity, her work lives at the crossroads of Fine Art and Fairytale—though it all began with a girl simply looking for a place where her body felt safe. Raised in Chattanooga, Tennessee, affectionately dubbed the "Buckle of the Bible Belt,” Wren spent her early life steeped in religious dogma and purity culture. She worked in the church, married the worship pastor, and poured herself into trying to decipher “God’s plan” for her life. In 2016, she broke from the disappointment, upended everything she knew, and began writing her way into a different story. After a stretch of international travel, she decided to move to a small town on the Olympic Peninsula, the NW corner of Washington State. With nothing but a bit of luck and a whole lot of gumption, she headed west in April of 2017, determined to build a life rooted in truth, beauty, and freedom.
