Amanda M. Crisel is a PharmD, Certified Wellness Practitioner, and perimenopause educator dedicated to addressing the gap between women and the evidence-based care they need to optimize health and wellbeing during and beyond perimenopause. With a doctorate in pharmacy from Purdue University, a clinical practice residency at Johns Hopkins, and nearly two decades in biopharmaceuticals, she's focused on the imbalance between what the research says and the care women can actually access. Her work is informed by clinical training, a focus on holistic health, and her own experience navigating Premature Ovarian Insufficiency at age 39; a combination that allows her to meet women where they are and provide the science-backed support they need.   Amanda founded Amanda Michelle Wellness in 2022 and created PeriNavigatHer™, an evidence-based perimenopause resource platform in beta testing, designed to help women prepare for and navigate conversations with their healthcare providers. Her programs and resources span clinical education, lifestyle and holistic wellness, and care navigation and are grounded in peer-reviewed research and the guidelines of leading institutions, including The Menopause Society, ACOG, and the Endocrine Society.   She co-created the PeriMenopause Small Group Medical Program, a small-group clinical model designed to make personalized perimenopause care more accessible and affordable.   Amanda believes that no woman should have to navigate perimenopause alone, all women should have access to quality care, and that the right support will improve the health trajectory and well-being of women with a ripple effect on clinical, social, and economic outcomes for generations to come.

Born in Longview, Texas, Doc Murphy is an apostolic pioneer called to shape the spiritual landscape of America by building God’s Kingdom. As the founder and apostle of The Everywhere Network (TEN), headquartered in Plano, Texas, Doc ministers with a powerful grace for apostolic leadership and teaching. He is more than just a leader; he is a trailblazer and legacy builder, igniting movements and shifting spiritual paradigms. With a heart for coaching in both business and ministry, Doc is a catalyst for change, aligning people’s lives, churches, and regions with God's divine plans and purposes. Doc’s mission? To create lasting change by planting transformative churches, mentoring Kingdom entrepreneurs (Kingdompreneurs), writing anthems of worship, correcting doctrinal misunderstandings, and equipping the Body of Christ to usher in the end-time reformation. His work goes beyond local influence—he is committed to impacting the entire nation. In 1996, Doc pioneered his first church, Outreach Tabernacle, raising an army of believers empowered to walk in their calling and covenant rights. By 1998, the church had relaunched and expanded to two campuses, becoming one of the most influential churches in the region. In 2008, he relocated to Plano, Texas, and in 2010, planted The Place International Church, which later became The Place Church, with locations in both Longview and Plano. Over the years, Doc Murphy has planted more than 20 churches across Arkansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Texas, Alabama, Iowa, California, and beyond. But he isn’t stopping there—The Everywhere Network’s mission is to plant churches in every state, with a vision to establish over 19,000 churches nationwide before the return of Jesus Christ. He is dedicated to multiplying smaller church plants that, in turn, plant new churches, creating a movement that extends far beyond the walls of any one congregation. As Doc Murphy says, “We’re not just building churches, we’re creating movements.” A successful Kingdompreneur, Doc has launched multiple businesses, including a tutoring service, financial services agency, marketing agency, indie record label, and coaching business. He has produced over 10 gospel albums, written more than 300 songs, and founded a non-accredited Bible school and a business school called Widman University. His literary contributions are equally impressive, with more than 70 books to his name. Doc Murphy’s legacy is deeply rooted in his passion to see others worship God fervently and fulfill their divine purpose. His mantra is simple yet profound: “My legacy is to help you build your legacy.” Doc Murphy Executive Contributor Success and Leadership Coach Executive Contributors at Brainz Magazine are handpicked and invited to contribute because of their knowledge and valuable insight within their area of expertise.
