- Tim Kushner, Author/Entrepreneur, Executive Contributor at Brainz Magazine
Tim Kushner is the author of Tunnel of Light: Journey to Enlightenment, a powerful true story inspired by his three near-death experiences and the life-changing spiritual revelations that followed. After the devastating loss of his fiancée, Laura, just one week before their wedding, Tim’s life was forever transformed by a series of extraordinary encounters beyond death that challenged everything he thought he knew about life, purpose, love, and the human soul. During these profound experiences, Tim describes entering the radiant “Tunnel of Light,” where he encountered overwhelming peace, spiritual awareness, and a message that ultimately became the foundation of his mission: to help others rediscover hope, healing, and the light within themselves. His story has resonated deeply with readers searching for meaning, comfort, and a greater understanding of life beyond the physical world. With a foreword by renowned near-death experiencer Dannion Brinkley, Tunnel of Light explores themes of spiritual awakening, transformation, consciousness, purpose, and love that transcends death. Through his writing, podcast appearances, interviews, and public discussions, Tim openly shares his experiences to inspire others who may be navigating grief, loss, fear, or personal darkness. Beyond the book itself, Tim’s mission is rooted in service and compassion. A portion of the proceeds from Tunnel of Light supports charitable causes focused on helping underserved communities, veterans, youth programs, homelessness initiatives, and environmental efforts dedicated to protecting the oceans and planet for future generations. Today, Tim continues to share his journey through media appearances, interviews, and speaking engagements, encouraging others to embrace purpose, inner knowing, and the possibility that there is far more to life – and death – than we have been taught to believe.

- Maira Flores Xavier, Embodiment Coach for Executives, Executive Contributor at Brainz Magazine
Maíra Flores is an embodiment coach for executives and high-achieving professionals — the people who look most in control on paper, who often already go to the gym or run or do Pilates, and are still the furthest from what their body is actually trying to tell them. Her work sits at the intersection of ontological coaching, somatic medicine, and movement. Where most executive coaching stays in the realm of strategy and mindset, Maíra works with the layer underneath: the survival identity the nervous system has organized itself around, often shaped by early trauma, that quietly dictates how a leader makes decisions, handles pressure, and relates to their own limits. She is the creator of The Five Masks framework, which identifies the specific survival identity the nervous system has attached to — the particular strategy a person built early on to stay safe, be loved, or stay in control, and has been running on ever since. Each mask once worked. Now it costs the person wearing it their health, their relationships, or their capacity to lead well. Maíra is Brazilian, based in London, and brings a background in physiotherapy and Pilates instruction — alongside a personal practice of social dance — into her coaching work, treating the body as a legitimate source of information rather than something to override. She works with clients one-to-one, both in person and online, and is building toward a corporate offering for organizations ready to address the root of what's running their leaders, rather than just the symptoms. Her approach is direct. She does not do generic wellness language, and she does not tell clients what they want to hear. She tells them what their body has been trying to tell them for years.

Now a professional Actor. Lesley is committed to conflict resolution, Lesley is training to be an NVC (non-violent communication) facilitator. As a gymnast and horse rider, Lesley competed at County level - facing accidents and injuries, she determined to get back in the saddle.
