Denise Morrison is the CEO of Intuitively Unique Coaching, her Holistic Brand of Health/Life Coaching. She struggled for decades to overcome traumatic experiences from my own past. She compensated for lack of confidence with degrees and professional success. She numbed her pain with addictive eating and self-abusive behaviors. And when she finally turned to the right teachers and coaches, she learned that change does not need to take decades. Change can actually be instantaneous. And change can be lasting. After working for many years in healthcare, Denise felt a pull and a passion for working with people on a deeper and more transformational level. Her academic mind was drawn to the evidence-based practices of nutrition and exercise, but she was also compelled by the more mystical therapies emerging from neuroscience and quantum healing. Denise sought out the best training in health and wellness, life coaching, and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) to have access to the most powerful tools to help others change their lives for the better.

Elena’s journey is a true testament to resilience, transformation, and purpose. She began her career as a hairdresser at the age of 20, but always felt called to something more. She was once a professional track and field athlete, which taught her discipline, perseverance, and the importance of mind-body connection — values that continue to guide her work today.   Despite the challenges of the time, she pursued evening classes at the Biology Faculty of Kazakh University while working during the day in a research lab at the Institute of Zoology. After three years, with a newborn son, she left her job to fully dedicate herself to her studies and motherhood.   Her life took her across borders — from Kazakhstan to the UK, then the Czech Republic, and finally to the Netherlands, where her daughter was born. There, she completed her MSc in Nutrition and Metabolism at Maastricht University. Despite her qualifications, finding a job proved difficult, so she followed her passion and started her own business helping people with weight loss. But it didn’t take long to realize that nutrition alone wasn't the full answer — deeper emotional roots needed to be addressed. Her real transformation began when her daughter started experiencing severe panic attacks at the age of ten. This led Elena down a profound path of emotional healing, trauma release, and spiritual growth. As she helped her daughter, she was also healing her own childhood wounds, fears, and past traumas — including the pain of betrayal and divorce.   Her mission is to create a retreat center where people from around the world can find inner peace and true happiness.   In Russian, “pain” means “with love from God.” Elena lives by this truth — grateful for every tear, every lesson, and every breakthrough.

From a very early age, feeling there was more to the world and universe than was currently being taught in the schools and universities, a path was decided upon to search for and uncover the 'hidden truths' that lay at the core of life! The aim was more spiritual than physical (although physics was also studied), as it became more and more obvious as time progressed, that the spiritual was where the 'real underlying truths and causes' would be found (The spiritual being the blueprint for the physical universe.) This took an immense amount of spiritual research undertaken on an individual basis. A lifetime of searching and discovery, of these basic underlying truths, is being powerfully used now to change, help and guide others.

If you’ve ever felt like a fish out of water in a leadership position, you're not alone. Meet Nancy, Author, Entrepreneur, Wife, Mom, and Communications, Literature, and Sociology graduate. Nancy’s leadership journey began a little over 15 years ago through a game of DARE, which catapulted her into a senior position without the mental or emotional tools to anchor herself to, and she ‘paid for it’. A lover of storytelling, she cherished the perfect blend of serving as cabin crew, while connecting at a deeply personal level with her colleagues and passengers until the script changed. Here was a role that came with a different set of rules and responsibilities. The call to leadership was a call to have more answers than questions, to have fewer to no excuses, to embrace thinking on your feet. She had to get used to wearing different hats, on Demand! She was quickly learning that every new level requires the shading of old skin to experience growth. After spending sleepless nights wondering why the warmth at work had disappeared, she decided to study people she believed had succeeded at leadership: Jim Rohn, John C. Maxwell, Brian Tracy, Robin Sharma, Simon Sinek, Nelson Mandela, Brene Brown, and the air started flowing into her leadership lungs. To her, no woman should go through the anxiety and uncertainties she experienced if she can do something about it. She's met the Impostor Syndrome through self-doubt, experienced heightened stress that almost crippled her. She has since founded the Workplace Leadership Accelerator, an online program with a framework that integrates Professional and Personal alignment. Here she helps Ambitious women in or aspiring to take up leadership roles, magnetize the right opportunities and seamlessly handle success, without depleting their Mental and Emotional resources. She has equally authored books where she preaches authentic leadership and its impact on your bottom line. Whether you're preparing for your next interview, settling into a managerial role, or eyeing the boardroom, she'll help accelerate your journey. She shares hard-won lessons, expert strategies, and mindset shifts that will help you flourish. Your Purpose is your Compass, once it's clear, your path will follow.

Diana Cantu Kawas is a licensed psychologist, holistic coach, and spiritual leader known for catalyzing transformative change by helping clients turn fear into passion, power, and success. She works with creative leaders to unlock deeper layers of their true self-identity for success. Before embracing holistic healing, Diana built a dynamic career as an editorial director, fashion stylist, and marketing professional, where she developed a keen creative vision and expertise in personal branding. Despite being perceived as highly confident, her early life was shaped by the pressure to excel—driven by high expectations and a quest for self-love and acceptance—which led to struggles with feeling not good enough, self-doubt, perfectionism, and the burden of wearing a mask to hide her true self. Determined to break free from these limiting patterns, Diana embarked on a lifelong mission to live authentically and reclaim her personal power. She earned her bachelor’s degree in psychology in 2008 and a master’s degree in Executive and Personal Coaching from Pompeu Fabra University in Barcelona (ACTP Accredited) in 2011. Integrating modern psychology and neuroscience with ancient healing practices, she developed a comprehensive approach that weaves together modalities such as mindfulness, pranayama, energy work, NLP, yin yoga, quantum meditation, biodecoding, sacred geometry, and spiritual alchemy. As the founder of OMphalos Coaching, Diana has designed bespoke programs—Navigating Inner Self, Self-Expansion, and her proprietary Energetic Cartography—that have empowered over 900 clients to overcome challenges like anxiety, self-sabotage, and low self-worth. Her work addresses the common struggles of creative leaders—from feeling lost to battling perfectionism—guiding them to become more successful, embrace their authentic potential, achieve balanced work-life integration, and lead with courage and confidence. Today, Diana continues to share her curated systems and insights, inspiring individuals to shed self-doubt and step into a life of genuine fulfillment.
