  • Meet Kenyon, a storyteller who weaves intricate worlds and characters with tales of fantasy, sci-fi, sorcery, and magic. Kenyon shares his process of uncovering his familial DNA and how it led him to become an author. His first book, Threads of Power, is the first release in a trilogy book series. Action, intrigue, unlikely heroes - his storytelling weaves layers of surprise and fantasy into a story you'll never forget.

    Kenyon started his journey with family tree research and multiple DNA tests spanning over 15 years. He discovered his lineage with the first king of Britain, and from there, his lineage connected with ancient Roman mythology. He weaves this history into his main character. He brings his love of anime, cartoons, and comics into the fantasy genre. It's not just a story for kids, but a story for the youth in all of us.

  • Meet Patti Fields: Patti is a spiritual guide and dream interpreter. She asks questions such as: "Why do people suffer? How can we be free of pain? What is the purpose of suffering?" These questions were swirling around in Patti Fields’ mind the day she buried her baby, Amanda, after a tragic pregnancy loss. Reaching out for guidance, that night she experienced her first spiritual dream and she experienced a natural opening to the healing power of the spiritual realm.

    Patti’s quest for answers led her to the teachings and practices of A Course in Miracles, during which time her spiritual dreams and visions became numerous and profound. Applying the guidance she received to situations and relationships her negative belief patterns, grievances, and unhealthy self-concepts fell away.

    Patti’s desire to help others prompted an unexpected spiritual dream where she met her spirit guide, who taught her how to channel messages while awake. The numerous transformational messages Patti receives are foremost for herself. Yet, she willingly shares these teachings to support your healing and connection to Divine wisdom.

    Follow along to learn more about Patti, her books, and the guidance she shares with her clients. Links are in bold above.

  • Today we dig into the dirt with a visionary founder in the production and supply chain for Functional Mushrooms. You'll learn everything you need to know about these powerful complementary supplements and how to source them for your own benefit.

    Jme Bonfiglio, a trailblazer in the field of mycology, has dedicated her life to exploring and educating others about the myriad benefits of mushrooms. With a childhood immersed in tribal healing practices, mushrooms have been a cornerstone of her health and wellness journey. Her profound expertise and innovative mushroom-based formulas have garnered international acclaim and demand.

    Before founding her own company, Jme honed her skills with Host Defense in Utah and collaborated with Nammex as a supplier. Her experience in the industry revealed a troubling lack of transparency and quality in mushroom supplements – a market rife with substandard extraction methods and multi-sourced raw materials. Determined to set new standards in the industry, Jme established WholeSun Wellness in 2017.

    WholeSun Wellness, under Jme‘s visionary leadership, offers an unparalleled product in the market: whole mushroom extracts that are not only clinically potent but also with verified therapeutic compounds. These products are free from additives and artificial ingredients, with a transparent and traceable production process. Jme‘s commitment to overseeing every step, from cultivation to processing, ensures the highest quality.

    In just five years, WholeSun Wellness has transformed from a modest startup into a major player in the industry.

  • From Sonny Von Cleveland: "As a motivational speaker, coach, and activist, I am passionate about sharing my story to aid and inspire people to choose growth from adversity because I have done just that. As a child, over the course of five years, I was the repeated victim of abuse by multiple men, which led me to become an angry adolescent. (I was) incarcerated at age sixteen for eighteen years. Since my release, I have mentored and worked with hundreds of individuals to encourage them to own their stories so that they too can recognize they have a choice – they can choose to live in victimhood, or they can choose to forgive, let go, grow, and empower themselves to live fulfilling meaningful lives. My core message is that it’s not what happens to us or what we have done that defines us; it’s how we choose to move forward and grow those matters."To connect with Sonny:Website and Sonny's new Book:
