Her personal and traumatic story of struggle and hardship covered in her debut book entitled ‘Don’t Hold Back’ has given her the positive tools and focus she needed to fight back, to create a power house of strength; compassion and dedication to living. Emma-Jane was once told ‘she was the girl going nowhere, the failure’ and most people thought she would be dead or in prison by the time she was 20. Her reality, like many, was very different.

She is a survivor of child sex abuse, abandonment & rejection. Throughout her teenage years she drank excessively, took drugs, became bulimic. By 15 years old was exhausted by life, addicted and struggling with various disorders. Her school life struggled, she was often put into isolation, on report, given regular detentions or suspended. She was labelled a juvenile delinquent by a child psychiatric at 14 - none of which helped her with her difficulties or development. As a young girl she struggled with nerves, night terrors, late development, OCD, PTSD, nausea, eating disorders, paranoia, anxiety. At 19 she took off to Spain and at 23 she found the confidence to start an A-Z of therapy.

Emma-Jane is a passionate & authentic speaker with relatable clear messages, keeping her audiences engaged by her genuine & insightful
knowledge. Using her own powerful and traumatic story she allows her audience the much needed mental and emotional freedom to live
life the way they need, both personally and professionally. With a laser like focus she can shape your world with what is truly important in

ultimately their success.

From the Boxing Ring to the Ashram

From the Boxing Ring to the Ashram

Intent on promoting optimal wellness, she features some of her favorite, easy enjoyable, accessible, and effective tools in “From the Boxing Ring to the Ashram.”

For two decades, she managed hundreds of news conferences, editorial board meetings, press briefings, and one-on-one interviews. She worked with security, communications, and advance teams for John McCain, Hillary Clinton, President Barack Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama, then-Vice President Joe Biden, Dr. Jill Biden, Bernie Sanders, megastar Jennifer Lopez, and the Vice President of El Salvador.To balance the chaotic scales directing major league campaigns, it was essential for her to soothe the stress and 24/7 schedule with body, mind, and soul lifesavers.

Coaching people of all ages, and with many physical or emotional challenges, she seeks to boost the body, mind, and spirit through simple techniques that can be practiced anywhere and anytime. To that end, she has created a dozen signature therapeutic workshops. Among them are Dem Bones, Gutsy Yoga, Chill Out, Breath of Life, Chant and Be Happy, Tummy Bust, and Sugar Drop. All are offered in English and Spanish.

Her deep commitment to helping others achieve maximum well-being led her to teach yoga and lead therapeutic workshops in the US, Mexico, Belize, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Italy, and India.Deborah has lived, worked, and studied in the U.S. and Latin America. A travel blogger since the early WordPress days, she has published 500 mind/body and lifestyle articles. She joined AARP’s The Ethel as a contributing writer in 2021.

When not writing or traveling, she enjoys hosting guests at her mini-retreat center, The Namaste Getaway in Texas Hill Country. Connect (and learn) with her on her virtual book club, social media, YouTube channel, and deborahcharnes.com.

Weirdo 2.0 the True Story

Weirdo 2.0 the True Story

Growing up in the seventies and eighties, Christopher knew he was odd because the activities kids liked were not always the same as he wanted to do. He was bullied and teased constantly, and he never understood why. The bullying lasted up to about his sophomore year in high school. Trying to have a girlfriend was impossible. he was always a romantic, but trying to share that with the opposite gender didn't happen. His mother knew there was something different about him, but she didn't know (and neither did the doctors) what his deal was. She tried to put him in smaller classes, and high school, He attended a country school even though he lived in the city. He got accepted to the California and Colorado Art Institutes because of his early work in video art from the Macintosh II computer. (Remember, we're talking 1988 at the time.) But Mom said no, so he was forced to attend a community college. Little did his mother know he would meet a beautiful woman in the Spring of 1989. His mother was not thrilled he met this woman; worse, he proposed and married her in November that year. His wife had a daughter, a son, and a set of twin daughters. When his twin daughters started to grow, one daughter suddenly started to regress to the point of not communicating with Christopher or his wife or her sister. The doctors told the couple that she has low-functioning autism and that they should expect to take care of her for the rest of her life. Fortunately, Children's Mercy Hospital was experimenting with an Alzheimer's medication called Nemenda. Something extraordinary happened; the medication started to work! Their daughter's brain developed from low functioning to higher-functioning autism. Not only this revelation but her twin sister was also diagnosed with high-functioning autism. (Higher than her sister.) It’s mentioned this because they learned that autism is hereditary, so together as husband and wife decided to have Christopher tested for autism, and guess what..... He has a disability as well. Christop knows this sounds horrible, but he was so relieved that he finally found out what was wrong was him. He was 35 when he finally found out, but not knowing for all those years was maddening. Weirdo 2.0 is a story about the horrific experience Christopher had the last year as a teacher in his old school district. After a meeting with the superintendent, he didn't like the answer about the state testing. So after the meeting, he met with the head of HR and told her to get rid of the 'weirdo.' From then on, many administrators, coordinators, and other officials came into his room, taking notes and trying to get him to quit. He had accommodations put into his records with HR before he started with the district. They broke every accommodation because he was autistic—the book focuses on people like himself who have been bullied at work because of our disability. Please note names and locations were changed for legal reasons. Currently, Christopher is still married to his wife of 33 years. He teaches SPED for an urban school district, but he is looking to be an administrator soon. He is still writing, but finding the time has been tricky. Both Christopher and his wife have two granddaughters, three dogs, and a cat!

The Difference Between Coca-Cola and Pepsi, Explained

Coca-Cola, nutritionally, has a touch more sodium than Pepsi, which reminds us of Topo Chico or a club soda and results in a less blatantly sweet taste. Pepsi packs more calories, sugar, and caffeine than Coke. Although they both have carbonation and sweet flavor, the taste difference is undeniable.

The Power of Communication

The Power of Communication

Dr. Heather Browne PsyD, LMFT helps people recognize the power of communication. It is one of our most important skills that we have, and yet we don’t consider our understanding, approach, belief, and therefore, miss our possibilities. Living with a paranoid schizophrenic mother gave Dr. Heather a unique and powerful awareness that no one has the same reality, though we believe we do. Utilizing this revolutionary awareness has allowed her to transform communication within self and within all other types of relationship. This is the hidden key to acceptance. And this is her mission to share. As a relationship expert, Dr. Heather Browne has worked with thousands of individuals and couples in psychotherapy. She is published in hundreds of journals, has an active YouTube channel, has been featured on ABC-7 news, was the relationship expert on KDOC Daybreak OC, and is published in Inc., Toronto Sun, Thriving Family Magazine, Light + Life, BRAINZ, Scary Mommy, and Psychology Today.

The Wojo Way

The Wojo Way

Jason first came to Lifeonaire as a student in 2009. On the surface he appeared successful and by most external measures, seemed to be “living the dream”. But behind closed doors he was unhappy, stressed, overworked, and desperate to live life on his own terms.

With the help of Lifeonaire, Jason was able to turn everything around, reinvent himself and his businesses, and design a life of true joy, passion, fulfillment and freedom.

His gratitude for the Lifeonaire message and philosophy, along with his desire to empower and encourage others, led to him first becoming a Titanium coach, working with some of the country’s most successful business owners and investors, then lead event instructor, and now he runs the company as CEO.

He has spoken and shared with audiences of all types worldwide, and has impacted the lives and legacies of thousands by walking them through the proven Lifeonaire process of creating a life and business they love.

He has been blessed with a beautiful wife, three daughters, a weiner dog named Rusty and lives in North Carolina. For fun he “lifts things up and puts them down”, plays electric guitar in the worship band at his church, and spends time with his family.

The Knowledge of the truth is Power

The Knowledge of the truth is Power

Olivier Mankondo is a keynote speaker, author, weight loss and wellness coach with a passion to help people achieve optimal health. He has been on a plant-based nutrition since 2016. Just by chance, he happened to be watching a program that showed that animal products were not designed for the human mechanism.

He applied this newfound knowledge in his life and was able to cure himself of high blood pressure, severe headaches, chest pains, painful joints, back pain, abscesses and dandruff without the use of any medication.

Before adopting to a plant-based nutrition and the newfound knowledge, Olivier Mankondo weighted 100 kilos (15½ stone) and subsequently lost 35 kilos (5½ stone) in nine months without surgery or physical exercises (gyms, boot camps, etc.).

After the change in his diet and lifestyle, Olivier’s health has been optimal, and he has never been sick ever since. He shared his knowledge and experience about a plant-based nutrition with his wife and brother, and they too had witnessed dramatic transformations in their health. Both of them have been able to reverse their chronic diseases and are now in perfect health.

After witnessing significant transformations due to the adoption of a plant-based nutrition, Olivier decided to share this powerful message with the world and empower people with this knowledge.

He has helped and continue to help a lot of people through his message to adopt a healthy lifestyle so they can lose their excess weight, prevent, stop, and even reverse their chronic diseases.

He is also an independent thinker and an inspirational and entertaining speaker. Born in London, England, Peter moved to Rhodesia as a boy, he spent most of his life in Southern Africa. His corporate career included marketing management in large and small companies. This was followed by establishing and running his own small factory and an export trading business. He traveled extensively in Southern and Central Africa until civil war in 2 significant markets wiped out the export business. He lost his business and home, became bankrupt, and ended his marriage. Peter then moved to Zimbabwe, started another business, sold that, and became a farmer in Zimbabwe. In 2002 he became a casualty of the government's illegal and violent policy of driving commercial farmers off their farms. After holding out for 3 years, he was illegally detained by the Mugabe government, imprisoned, and prevented from returning to his farm. Losing the farm and all his assets left him with no home, no income, no capital, and no way to survive in that country. Arriving in Canada at age 54, with 2 suitcases a horse saddle, and very little cash, Peter survived initially by helping farmers with greenhouse and irrigation work. When a heart attack in 2000 stopped the farm work, he started Internet Marketing, writing, speaking, and coaching. His latest venture started in 2020 is The Yakking Show audio and video podcast. Peter has been a horse and dog owner for most of his life played Polo-Crosse and Polo, and run marathons and ultra-marathons. In 2019, he walked 250 km (150 miles) on the Camino de Santiago.
