Karen Bruno is a Naturopath, Flower Essence Practitioner, and Reiki Master with almost 15 years of experience in holistic healing. Originally from Brazil, where she received the majority of her training and certification as a naturopath, Karen has dedicated her life to understanding the deeper aspects of existence—exploring emotions, energy, and the unseen forces that shape our reality.
Her passion for this work comes from her own journey of seeking answers and understanding both life and herself. Through this path of self-discovery, she realized it was about much more than just physical or emotional healing—it was about awakening to a greater truth. She found a deeper connection to Source and began to remember who she truly is—who I AM. This profound understanding of her essence, along with her desire to help others remember their own divine nature, has become the guiding force of her path.
Karen’s work is about more than healing—it’s about consciousness expansion. Through Flower Essence Therapy, Reiki, and other energy healing techniques, she helps individuals awaken to their own power and divine connection. She believes healing doesn’t have to be difficult; it can also be a gentle, graceful process, much like the subtle yet profound way Flower Essences work.
In her private sessions and group work, Karen guides people in releasing old patterns and beliefs, or any stuck emotions, allowing them to step fully into the present moment, reclaim their power, and create a life in alignment with their highest potential.
As the wellness manager at Rafi Lounge in Malibu, Karen shares her knowledge with the community, creating a beautiful and powerful space for transformation, healing, and empowerment.

DOINA ONCEL is a Founder, Financial Educator and Social Entrepreneur who is REVOLUTIONALIZING TEEN FINANCIAL SUCCESS!
Doina believes that financial freedom isn't about how much money you make—it's about understanding how money works. Her journey started in survival mode. Previously she was on welfare, homeless, buried in $60,000 of debt, and struggling to see a way out. But everything changed when she made one decision: to learn how money really works.

Now, she's passionate about sharing what she learned with others, especially young people, because she knows firsthand that the sooner you understand money, the sooner you can take control of your future.
That's why she created Money Made: The 4-Week (Online) Course That Sets Your Teen Up for a Lifetime of Financial Success—a course that teaches real-life money skills like budgeting, saving, and investing in a simple, relatable way.
