Beth Lauren’s interest in the intersection of wellness and technology was piqued when COVID lockdown altered the course of the in-person Ayurvedic nutritional counseling and meal planning business she had just begun. Over 1900 people shared her interest when they virtually attended the first Well-Tech World Summit in 2023. In February 2025, Well-Tech will be live in London with expert speakers, industry-leading exhibitors, and interactive sessions. Beth is currently recording the Well-Tech podcast and a membership platform and speakers' bureau are also in the works. Beth’s mission is to ensure that wellness practitioners and brands have the tools they need to successfully grow their businesses while taking care of their own mental and physical health. For Beth, studying Ayurveda was the natural outcome after discovering this ancient and beautiful modality while creating her own wellness protocol. Beth was healing from PTSD, which was the result of surviving a violent childhood assault, and couldn’t find everything she needed with traditional western therapies. Mixing Ayurveda with EFT, Transcendental Meditation, writing and somatic movement, Beth healed her mind, body and spirit. Beth spent several years in the independent film world and she chronicles her experience along with her PTSD recovery journey in her memoir, Reeling: Misadventures in Moviemaking, Money, and Love. Beth divides her time between her hometown of New York City and London.

Jon Addison is a dedicated Performance Coach, Surf and Snowboard Instructor, and former Snowboard Athlete with a mission to enable the long-term success of ocean and mountain sports athletes and enthusiasts. As the founder of Mtnwave Fitness, Jon blends his expertise in fitness, rehabilitation, skill development, and sport-specific training to empower riders to overcome barriers, build resilience, and achieve peak performance. With his experience in both technique and performance coaching, Jon has unique insight into how an athlete's physical abilities directly impact their capabilities in the field. Having personally recovered from numerous injuries, Jon has developed a profound understanding of what it takes to overcome psychological factors in sport such as fear and anxiety, and how to rebuild one’s athleticism to ensure success and longevity in the game. Motivated by his injuries, Jon embarked on a quest to discover proven and sustainable training solutions to facilitate recovery, build resilience, and optimize performance. This ultimately led to the creation of Mtnwave Fitness (Mountain-Wave-Fitness), an app-based training and community-focused online platform that delivers transformative results to those seeking to level up their abilities in surf and snow sports. Fitness preparation for sports has become a common practice, inspiring enthusiasts who might not otherwise frequent the gym to train more consistently, and coaches like Jon have made training, once reserved for professional athletes, accessible to all. Through this, Jon aims to level the playing field, providing everyday athletes with the same high-performance tools as the pros. Accompanying this, Jon also aims to make surf and snow expeditions and adventures accessible to everyday riders. This brought his new signature Adventure Coaching Tours to life, where Jon helps participants get physically and mentally ready for the trip of a lifetime with tailored fitness plans. He then teams up with other coaches and/or local guides to support small groups of board-sports enthusiasts on immersive trips to tropical breaks and off-piste alpine destinations. These trips allow riders to work closely on improving their physical capabilities along with their riding skills which Jon has found to be the best combination for personal progression, and all of this happens as part of an unforgettable adventure. Jon is on a mission to build a global community where athletes of all ages and abilities confidently pursue growth, push their boundaries, and cultivate a lifelong connection to surf and snow sports. Whether online or in person, he is committed—through Mtnwave Fitness—to helping every rider maximize their time in the ocean and on the mountain. Ready to unlock your full potential as a board-rider?

Karen Gill is the founder and Creative Director of First Star Enterprises, a healing and teaching venture. She is a professional member of the Australian Tarot Guild Inc. A member and training practitioner of Holistic Health Associates International, and a Master Reiki Teacher. She established First Star because she wanted a place where her clients would feel safe in expressing who they were and what they wanted out of life. A lot of Karen's understanding has come from her healing journey, it’s given her a vista of what people need on a soul level. She believes the best place to start is by building a strong foundation and that comes from unpacking the things we sweep under the rug, we need to listen to the stories that are trapped within, work with them, and let them go. We keep the gems that were tarnished by these outdated threads, these are the foundational stones that help to support the re-building of our lives.  Karen is aware of the trepidation people have when it comes to personal transformation, especially regarding the work that’s involved. She feels that having faith in a higher authority than yourself, (God, the Universe, is key), but the trust needs to come from self-first, only then can you let go and let God, as they say. You learn to appreciate, trust, and have faith in yourself, allowing your intuition and higher self in to guide you towards your future self who is there waiting for you with open arms. Breaking old patterns can be quite challenging, Karen works with energy and has brought with her the understanding that we are multi-dimensional beings, and we all have a story to tell. Karen uses the essence of those stories and others to provide the framework for healing in her practice. Everyone has a story within, it may not be apparent when we first meet, but eventually after a few working consultations, we start to see patterns emerging. Karen has spent many years and continues to do so, to ensure she can provide the best care for her clients. Karen’s particular interest is in Personal and Generational healing and evolving through the changing landscape we see every day, understanding how the Universe communicates to us, is key to a successful pathway forward. Life for me has taken on a whole new meaning, we are energy and energy is all around us. I believe our intention to be born on earth is for evolution and to make this a better place to live for ourselves, future family members, and humanity in general. And in making it a better place for all, we learn how to live better lives ourselves.  Her intention is for this to be a heart and soul-based Enterprise, one that supports people to find those gems within, the ones that lead to a feeling of fulfillment of self. Unlocking these aspects widens the vista of opportunity and provides healing on a soul level. Healing the self helps birth new ideas and ways of being, so we can live in a better physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual state than we previously have.

Kamell Ellis is a visionary business and community leader with a multifaceted background in marketing, event planning, and grassroots organizing. With more than three decades of experience across the corporate, entertainment, and nonprofit sectors, Kamell has built a career grounded in strategic thinking, cultural impact, and service to community. He began his professional journey in the entertainment industry as a management intern with Melquan Entertainment, working with hip-hop pioneers the RZA and GZA of Wu-Tang Clan. He quickly established his own marketing and events company, The Entity, where he led promotional campaigns for major labels such as Warner Bros. Music, Universal Music Group, and RCA Records. During this time, Kamell created the groundbreaking industry showcase "Live From the Ground Unda," a platform that became a launching pad for emerging talent and caught the attention of hip-hop legend Parrish Smith (EPMD), who brought Kamell on to lead Events & Promotions at PMD/RCA Records. His entrepreneurial drive led to partnerships in two additional marketing and advertising firms, whose clients included Kedar Entertainment, Motown Records, the Apollo Theater, and Coca-Cola. Kamell's reputation as a connector and brand strategist continued to grow. Following a brief sabbatical to focus on family, Kamell founded Ellis Enterprises International Inc., a consulting firm dedicated to strategic marketing and community engagement. During this period, he deepened his civic commitment, aligning with childhood friends and nonprofit leaders Erica Ford (LIFE Camp Inc.) and Lance Feurtado (King of Kings Foundation). Through these partnerships, Kamell helped shape impactful initiatives such as Peace Week, S.N.U.G., Bury Da Beef, and the Warriors Tour, which addressed gun violence, youth development, and community healing. In 2017, Kamell launched his flagship endeavor, 1World Fest Global, a 501c3 nonprofit organization promoting unity, diversity, and inclusion through cultural celebration. Drawing inspiration from his experiences organizing national expos and cultural festivals like Black Expo and Kwanzaa Fest, 1World Fest serves as a grassroots “United Nations” — blending music, art, technology, and dialogue to build bridges between communities. Kamell also enjoyed a 32-year career with Verizon Communications, beginning in Business Marketing Operations before transitioning into engineering and technical operations as a Central Office Technician. He holds an A.A.S. in Design Drafting & Technology from Queensborough Community College (CUNY), a B.S. in Business Marketing from SUNY Empire State College, and earned an MBA in International Business from Mercy University in 2023. Kamell has been recognized for his dedication to civic engagement with citations from the U.S. Congress, New York State Senate, New York State Assembly, and New York City Council. He currently serves as CEO of 1World Fest Global and continues to mentor youth through the King of Kings Foundation’s Warriors Tour, living his mission of empowerment, inclusion, and global unity.

Gabrielle’s journey into nutrition began through her own pursuit of health and healing. After losing over 50 pounds in early adulthood, what appeared externally to be a commitment to wellness became a deeply challenging relationship with food, exercise, and her body. Beneath the pursuit of “health,” Gabrielle found herself disconnected from the very foundations of wellbeing, navigating restrictive patterns and a mindset that left her feeling anything but healthy. Through this experience, Gabrielle discovered that true health was not found through control or perfection, but through rebuilding trust with her body. Strength training became a pivotal part of her healing journey, allowing her to reconnect with her body’s capabilities and reclaim her sense of empowerment. However, the journey extended beyond physical strength as she worked to restore balance within her digestion, hormones, and nervous system. These experiences became the foundation of Gabrielle’s passion for nutrition and her commitment to helping others understand the deeper connections between food, physiology, and health. Today, she specializes in weight management, gut health, and women’s health, translating complex nutritional science into practical strategies that empower individuals to create sustainable change. Gabrielle’s mission is to help others reclaim ownership of their health by building a relationship with food and their bodies rooted in trust, nourishment, and self-awareness. She believes that when individuals understand their bodies and move beyond fear-based approaches to wellness, they gain the freedom to transform their health in a way that honors their unique needs and stage of life.
