Eunice DC is a founder, well-being strategist, and design consultant. Her work is built on one core belief: people are the answers to their own problems. She helps high achievers practice consciousness, quiet external noise and realign to hear those answers. With nearly two decades of business experience, Eunice is an extensively trained expert across interior design, feng shui, and holistic coaching, holding formal certifications in both strategic life coaching and spousal grief processing. These disciplines look different on paper, but they share one thread: every training she has earned has pointed back to the same question. What does a person need, emotionally, in mind and in space, to actually thrive? That question is what "well-being strategist" means to her: not one more title, but the sum of everything she has studied. Life is multi-dimensional. In 2020, Eunice's husband unexpectedly passed away, and adversity became something she navigated firsthand rather than simply designed around. That season of loss taught her that rebuilding a life, like redesigning a room, takes more than willpower. It takes the right mindset, the right environment, and the willingness to trust that the answers are already inside you. Today, she works as a well-being strategist and design consultant for high-achieving women rebuilding after adversity, whether that's after the loss of a spouse, burnout, or business failure. She blends aligned mindset coaching, well-being strategies and intentional design principles into one holistic practice, helping clients realign both their inner world and the physical spaces they live and work in. Eunice truly believes her clients’ best path is already inside them. Instead of handing them a plan, she helps them find their own and creates the supportive mindset and space to build it.

We are Ariane and Beatriz, and together, we are BliXX.   BliXX is more than just a brand—it's a community dedicated to personal growth through conscious sexuality, with a special focus on conscious kink. Founded in 2018, BliXX was born from our shared vision of creating sex-positive spaces that welcome not only the "light," "soft," and "tender" but also the "dark" and "forbidden." These elements are explored within a ritualistic, safer, and conscious container.   Why did we create BliXX? Because in these spaces, things get real. Concepts like conscious power exchanges, consent, boundaries, desires, managing rejection, and establishing vulnerable connections move beyond theoretical workshop ideas and become lived experiences. These situations challenge us to integrate and embody our personal growth.   We believe that true personal development cannot ignore sexuality. The body must be engaged in any successful therapeutic process, which is why our work focuses on personal growth using kink as a transformative vehicle. Conscious kink impacts not only what happens in the bedroom but also in the boardroom and beyond.   Since our inception, BliXX has touched the lives of over 2,500 individuals through our experiences and retreats across the globe. Over the years, our commitment to helping people transform shame and domestication into wilderness, freedom, authenticity, love, and power has only strengthened. The depth and impact of the spaces we create have grown exponentially.   At BliXX, we are focused on deep, transformational work. To support this, we now offer extended opportunities to work with us, including one-on-one online coaching packages and week-long retreats for individuals and couples.

Growing up, Tony's family experienced financial hardship, and he was determined to break out of the poverty trap. He wanted not only to achieve financial comfort and understand how money works for himself but also to dedicate his career to helping others reach that same sense of security and stability. That desire to make a tangible difference in people's financial lives is what led him to establish TT Wealth Ltd. He was among the first Chartered Financial Advisers in the UK, and for him, this title represents a deep commitment to excellence. It means he's dedicated to maintaining the highest levels of knowledge, skill, and ethical standards. This distinction sets him apart from many others in the industry and gives his clients total credibility and confidence that they are dealing with an adviser who has proven expertise and is committed to being the very best he can be. The majority of his clients approach him when they are ready to retire. Their main concern is ensuring they have sufficient funds to live a secure lifestyle, maintain the standard of living they desire, and, where possible, leave a financial legacy or support their children. He help's them navigate this stage by creating robust plans that provide clarity, security, and peace of mind that their money will last. He has been working in financial services since 1987, and the landscape has changed dramatically, particularly regarding regulation and legislation. Rules are constantly evolving, and the biggest challenge is staying fully up to date with these changes to ensure every piece of advice remains compliant, relevant, and effective. He has adapted by prioritising continuous professional development, ensuring his knowledge evolves alongside the industry so his clients always receive the most accurate and current guidance. His most common piece of advice is simple yet powerful: plan well in advance of when you want to retire. Getting everything organised and in place years before you finish work is essential if you want to be financially comfortable and transition smoothly into this new chapter of life. Preparation is the foundation of a stress-free retirement. For him, financial advice is never just about numbers. The real impact of his work is seeing clients live without money worries. When their finances are secure, they can spend quality time with family and friends, travel, start new hobbies, follow passions, and truly enjoy what he call's the 'golden chapter' of life. His goal is to give people the freedom to live life on their own terms. He is currently developing online retirement courses that focus specifically on the non-financial aspects of retirement. Many people focus entirely on the money side and overlook the lifestyle, emotional, and social changes that come with retiring. He want's to highlight just how important these elements are and help people build a truly happy, balanced, and fulfilling retirement. His number one tip comes down to three things: start investing early, take the time to educate yourself about how investing works, and seek advice from a professional adviser who can guide you along the right path. Time, knowledge, and expert guidance are the most powerful tools for long-term financial success.

Ghali Bouzoubaa works on a problem most of the global music industry has historically chosen to ignore: how Arab music gets registered, tracked, and paid. He leads publishing administration and royalty operations for the Middle East and North Africa at Sony Music Publishing, based in Dubai, with a mandate that extends globally on systems and innovation.   The catalog environment he operates in is one of the most operationally complex in the industry. Decades of fragmented registration practices, inconsistent metadata across territories, and royalty flows routed through collecting societies that were never designed for the region have produced a structural backlog that quietly costs Arab songwriters real income every year. His daily work sits at the intersection of international metadata standards, royalty reconciliation, and the unglamorous infrastructure decisions that determine whether creators in underserved markets actually get paid.   He came to publishing through the commercial side of the industry. At Believe, he managed artist relations and label partnerships across North Africa with a portfolio of more than 150 artists and labels, and was retained by SODEC, Quebec's cultural development agency, to advise on market entry strategy for francophone music in North Africa. His earlier years across marketing and digital operations in Morocco, France, and Europe shaped a habit of treating creative industries as systems to be engineered, not just markets to be served.   Multilingual in Arabic, French, and English, Ghali writes on music publishing operations, rights economics, and the strategic infrastructure of the Arab creative economy. His central argument is that the MENA region's place in the global rights economy will be defined less by the talent it produces, which is abundant, than by the quality of the systems built around it, and that building those systems is the most consequential operational challenge facing Arab music today.

Dr. David Lee Sheng Tin is a motivational speaker, health and lifestyle consultant, and author devoted to helping individuals align outer success with inner fulfilment. As a board-certified health and strategic intervention coach, Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine consultant, and certified Transcendental Meditation teacher, he brings nearly four decades of mastery in consciousness-based transformation. At age twenty-one, a life-threatening illness and months of hospitalisation prompted him to question the deeper purpose of life. That awakening ignited his lifelong mission—to guide others toward inner peace, resilience, and self-realisation. For thirty-seven years, Dr. Lee Sheng Tin served as National Director of the Transcendental Meditation movement in Trinidad and Tobago, introducing thousands to this evidence-based practice. Today, as an adjunct professor of Physiology and Health at Maharishi International University in Iowa, he continues to lecture across the Caribbean and the U.S. on stress management, emotional fitness, and human potential—helping countless individuals transcend physical, emotional, and mental limitations. He holds a Ph.D. and Master’s in Human Development and Consciousness from Maharishi European Research University, Switzerland, and advanced credentials in Traditional Chinese Medicine from the Chinese Academy in Beijing. His extensive training includes certifications in Strategic Intervention (Robbins-Madanes), Functional Medicine Nutrition, Ayurvedic Marma Therapy, and Light Therapy with Gems. Dr. Lee Sheng Tin is the author of three transformative works—Awaken to Your Divinity, Master Your Emotions: Transform Your Life, and I Remember: A Practical Guide to Self-Realisation. As the creator of The Self-Mastery Blueprint—a transformative coaching and personal development programme—he guides participants through a step-by-step process to cultivate self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and conscious leadership. His teachings empower individuals and organisations to align their inner growth with their outer success, fostering authentic performance and well-being in both personal and professional life. In an age where burnout and imbalance are seen as the price of success, Dr. Lee Sheng Tin stands for a new model of achievement—one where clarity, vitality, and fulfilment coexist. His work proves that true success is not achieved at the expense of well-being, but through it—reminding us that harmony between outer accomplishment and inner peace is our true birthright.
