Guest Occupation: Author Empath Mystic
Guest Biography:

As an empath herself, Stephanie Red Feather has experienced firsthand the challenges of being extremely sensitive to subtle energies and the emotions of others. She knows that it can be overwhelming and cause you to lose yourself and doubt who you are. With this guide for anyone who’s ever felt out of place because of their sensitivity, Red Feather offers advice on how to manage life’s difficulties as an empath as well as insight into how these qualities are vitally important to the future of humanity.

Affirming that being an empath is a real thing and you are not alone in your experience of the world, Red Feather offers practical exercises to help you understand, control, and fully manifest your gifts. She explains how to clear your energy field, stop energy leaks, and reclaim your sense of self. She warns of the pitfalls of being an empath, such as employing your gifts in unhealthy ways, and stresses the importance of embracing both the Divine Masculine, to create boundaries and safety, as well as the Divine Feminine, to practice radical self-care and live authentically from your own center.

Red Feather explains not only that there are now more empaths than ever before, but that this surge in numbers is no coincidence. With the dawning of the Age of Aquarius, empaths represent the new human blueprint. They are the way-showers for the next step in human evolution, and they have a cosmic mission: to usher in a higher level of human consciousness, centered in the heart chakra. Red Feather also explains the impending reactivation of dormant levels of consciousness and cosmic memory, which will upgrade our human operating systems to function at a higher frequency. This shift is already acutely felt by empaths and will allow us to reclaim the lost powers of our ancestors.

With this hands-on guide, Red Feather provides empaths the tools they need to empower themselves and embrace their essential role in the next step of humanity’s evolution and ascension into the frequency of heart-centered consciousness.

About the Author: Rev. Stephanie Red Feather, Ph.D., is the founder and director of Blue Star Temple. An ordained shamanic minister, she holds a bachelor’s degree in applied mathematics and master’s and doctorate degrees in shamanic studies from Venus Rising University.

Guest Occupation: Swedish Singer and Songwriter
Guest Biography:

BELLA SKYLLER

Lost in a world full of prototypes, rights and wrongs, Bella Skyller chose to go against the norms and found her sound by combining different styles and made it to her own. With a sense of perfection, warm tones, insightful words, rich melodies, she has found herself in dark-pop and electro-pop. Her lyrics about love, life as young and restless girl, her emotional and passionated vocals, make her appear as an artist that would fit in most genres. 

Captivated by music since a very young age, the Swedish singer and songwriter started to sing English songs at the age of four, without knowing the meaning of the words. With a great memory for songs, she knew every single song that was on the radio. Not only singing has been warm to her heart, instrument was something she was very fascinated about. At the age of ten she decided to learn the guitar by her self, and nowadays she plays the piano too. Music was a big part of her childhood and she participated in musicals, dance classes and lessons for various instruments.

She has always been influenced by her parents, two musicians themselves. Her father played in a band and when she was old enough she joined as the lead singer and guitarist. The band called Garage 11 have done many gigs in Sweden. From small intimate performances with acoustic vibes, where the sound of guitars along with plentiful voices smoothly elapse among the audience, to big events where the wild audience sung along to the songs, but Bella was always longing for something bigger. 

Bella Skyller shines the most during her live performances when she gets to show her emotions and passion for her own songs and sounds. She does not have to be in the middle of the spotlight to be seen or heard. Her fresh sound, warming spirit and meaningful connection with her audience makes her live performances memorable, rare and powerful. 

Since she released her first single Love Me Louder in February 2018, her music has only grown. She now works with producers both in America and in Sweden. After releasing a remix of her original single, a music magazine based in New York, Elicit Magazine, made a reportage about the song. During the summer 2019 she  released another single called “Our Show” with the same producer. She is now working on her first album and writes songs for a Swedish producer at the same time. Since she moved to Los Angeles to chase her dreams, she almost drowns in her own creativity. Previous year has been full of surprises and the next to come will be even more exciting.

Guest Occupation: Woman behind Buckskin Revolution
Guest Biography:

WONIYA THIBEAULT

My name is Woniya Thibeault, and I am the woman behind Buckskin Revolution.

A love for the natural world has always been a part of me, as has a drive to make things with my own two hands, and a longing for earlier times and more land-based lifestyles. Discovering a community of people who practiced and taught ancestral skills when I was 19 opened up my world and inspired me to devote myself to these skills. I have been studying, practicing and teaching them since the mid 1990s. 

With both a Masters degree in Environmental Science and a hands on education in ancestral skills, I strive to combine knowledge of and love for the natural world with the physical skills of our human ancestors.

I have spent a lot time living off grid and incorporating wild foods and handmade goods into my daily life. I had a powerful test of my skills when I was selected as a participant for Season 6 of Alone on the History channel, where I spent 73 days living by myself in the arctic, hunting, gathering and trapping. The skills that allowed me to stay so long were not however, just the physical ones, but the mental, emotional and spiritual skills of long-term survival practices for connection, gratitude, curiosity, communication, positivity and reciprocity.

I teach a wide range of topics, but I call my business Buckskin Revolution not only because I love making, wearing, and teaching about brain tanned buckskin, but because of what it represents.

It is a reminder, a link to our human past. We can all trace our lineage back to ancestors who wore buckskin, or something very similar. It speaks to that place inside us that remembers what it feels like to know the world around us intimately, to shape the substance of our lives from the raw materials around us.  It reminds us what it is to be human and connected to the wild within and around us.

The Buckskin Revolution is not just making buckskin clothing, or harvesting wild foods or survival skills, it is about inspiring and enabling people to do more for themselves and to be freer, healthier, wilder, more connected human beings.

Guest Biography:

CLARE MEANS

Clare Means’ latest album, Sidewalk Astronomy, is a cohesive patchwork of musings on life in Los Angeles, love, forgiveness, and the recent loss of her estranged father.  Sidewalk Astronomy debuted at #1 on the iTunes Singer/Songwriter charts and #66 (right below Kanye’s recent album) on the iTunes All Genres Chart. As Clare says, “Most of the songs on Sidewalk Astronomy were written over the course of a couple years and were sparked by a variety of moments in my life… the day I found out my father was sick, when I fell in love, when I knew my relationship was doomed, when I got my heart broken, the day my father died, and when I woke up from a strange dream about sheep.”  Clare’s quirky take on life is fresh and comforting at the same time. 

Part of what makes Clare stand out as a performer is the unconventional path she has taken. Always a hustler, Clare has made a name for herself as one of LA’s most popular, hardest working street performers. She’s built a dedicated following by being one of the very few performers to perform almost exclusively original music. While most depend on covers to stop foot traffic, Clare learned to work on her songwriting craft and challenged herself to capture audiences using her own songs.  Clare’s street performances are musical experiments in which she interacts with the colorful and chaotic scene of the environment.

In September of 2015 Clare began live streaming her daily performances on Periscope. She is now one of Periscope’s most watched musicians and has made it onto the Periscope trending list multiple times and has over 100,000 followers on the app. Clare has independently sold thousands of copies of her albums through her live streaming, street performances and while playing shows at various venues across Los Angeles and touring the US, Canada and Europe.

Clare has also been featured in many popular online blogs and magazines including Billboard, No Depression, PopMatters, American Songwriter Magazine, Buzzbands,LA,  Yay LA! and Digital Music News.  Also, you may have read about her and her live streaming success in the two top selling books How To Make It In The New Music Business: Practical Tips On Building a Loyal Following and Making a Living As A Musician, Editions 1 and 2.

Guest Occupation: Medium
Guest Biography:

In February, 2010, I visited a medium who looked straight at me and said, "Do you know you have abilities?"

I had no idea what she was talking about. I thought to myself, I'm an attorney, not a medium.   However, I was very excited and interested. I lost my father at a very young age but was always able to communicate with him while growing up.  I now realize that when I was asked that question, the "switch" was turned on for me.

Things started happening. Our doorbell had been broken for several months, and we would hear a computerized voice saying "Install Cover," anytime someone rang the bell. On the day of my birthday in June, someone rang the doorbell, but instead of hearing the computerized voice, I heard the song "Happy Birthday" playing. I knew immediately it was Spirit. The next day, the computerized voice was back! Countless experiences like that began occurring.  Now that I was open, Spirit could communicate with me.   

 Shortly after, I completed a sixteen-week mediumship course. I learned so much, and finally received clarification on what was happening to me.  I also sharpened my abilities. The progress felt unreal. I also learned that my grandmother had been an incredible medium. This was something I had never known. 

I have been performing professional readings ever since, and it has changed my world. Communicating with Spirit and relaying beautiful messages to people has given me feelings I have never experienced in my life. I plan to continue learning and growing this ability. Recently, I also completed an eighteen-week training course in Clairvoyance. It is amazing! My life changed in February 2010, and I would not trade anything for this magical new world.
