Guest Biography:

Mária Sági, a native of Budapest, began her career as a classical pianist and turned subsequently to the study of medicine and psychology, specializing in personality theory, deep psychology, social psychology and the psychology of music. She received her Ph.D. in psychology at the Eötvös Lóránd Science University of Budapest, and after seven years research she received her C.Sc. degree of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. She is a former Research Associate and Scientific Secretary of Institute for Culture and Sociological Research Institute of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. A leading member of the Club of Budapest since its inception in 1993, Dr. Sági currently serves as Science Director of the Club. 

She is the author of twelve books and over one hundred of fifty articles and research papers published in Hungarian, English, French, German, Italian, and Japanese, on topics as diverse as social and personality psychology, the psychology of music and art, in addition to information medicine, her principal field.

She has done extensive research on the psychology of art: how music is reproduced through associations with color and form in painting, as well as on the Hungarian folk-dance movement, theatre, and cultural trends and values. Her books Aesthetics and Personality and Culture and Personality are frequently referenced in Hungarian research organizations. Creativity in Music, her book co-authored with Prof. Iván Vitányi, states the results of her experimental research work in a 9-volume treatise treating the investigation of generative ability in various segments of the Hungarian people.

​Mária Sági is a member of the General Evolution Research Group and is the former Managing Editor of World Futures, The Journal of General Evolution (now World Futures: The Journal of New Paradigm Research). She has been a close collaborator of Prof. Ervin László in his work on the new paradigm in science and society and has overseen the publication of the Hungarian edition of ten of László’s recent books.

Since the late 1980s Sági’s interests embraced natural healing, using the principles of  information medicine. She has developed the method of New Homeopathy pioneered by the Viennese scientist Erich Körbler as an encompassing method for diagnosing and treating human health problems whether in the presence of the patient and at a distance (“Holistic Information-Medicine”). She lectured on this method in seminars in Hungary, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, as well as Japan. She has worked with Ervin Laszlo in developing the theory of the Akashic field, providing examples of healing through that field and elaborating its implications for the new science paradigm developed by Laszlo.

The Luxembourg Peace Prize for ‘Outstanding Peace Activists 2017’ was awarded to the Club of Budapest (COB), its initiator Professor Ervin Laszlo, Chief Creative Director Anne-Marie Voorhoeve and Science Director Dr. Mária Sági, for their work of building bridges among cultures, and for their promotion of a ‘Planetary Consciousness’ on the theme of ‘Unity in Diversity’, and of supercoherence between human beings. This is the highest European acknowledgement awarded every year to persons, groups and organizations worldwide for tangible actions towards Peace.

If there is anyone out there who feels alone in the struggle to preserve personal choice and freedom, this book offers some very human advice on how to move forward and makes it clear that your voice deserves to be heard.

Guest Biography:

Stephanie McAuliffe, founder of The Way of the Diamond Warrior, Author, Master Healer and Coach, and 27 years ex-Wall Street.

Stephanie B. McAuliffe is the Founder of The Way of The Diamond Warrior - created to empower women to walk in the legitimacy of who they are. She has helped hundreds of women unravel their patterns and reclaim their sense of self. She speaks extensively about healing our stories and stepping into our true selves.  Stephanie is the Author of her latest international best-seller “THE IMPACT OF SILENCE: Self-Mastery Practices for Women: Stepping into Your Power and Embodying the Happiness That's Your Birthright”. (Launched 3/23.)

Her world felt like it fell apart when within one year, her 10-year marriage and 27-year career on Wall Street both ended. She had what she calls a mini nervous breakdown and then made the choice to say “yes” to herself. She was determined to heal her traumas, the stories she’d carried, and to step into the truth of who she truly is. She now works with women to heal all aspects of their stories and to step into the legitimacy of who they are.

 

She also shared...

In addition to 27 years on Wall Street:

  • Founded and operated a gourmet preserves business ahead of its time
  • An international best-selling author
  • Worked and trained with healers and coaches worldwide
  • Is a Holy Fire III Karuna Reiki Master
  • Certified Oracle Guide, an intuitive healer, and studied mediumship with world-renowned mediums

The Way of the Diamond Warrior was created as a revolution to a new state of being in this world. You have facets that want to be seen, most importantly by you. You’re not here to be controlled or manipulated or silenced. The silencing isn’t just of your voice, it’s of your soul. There are millions of things that needed to happen for your existence here on this planet. The fact that you’re here speaks to your legitimacy. It goes far beyond worthiness.

“When you let go of the reins to the world around you, and focus on the truth of who you really are, your essence emanates from you. There’s nothing you need to prove anymore. As you shift, the world around you naturally shifts, and the only change may be within you. This is true, incredible freedom.

I believe there is no story that can’t be given a voice. I teach you alternative ways of doing and being. I see you transformed before my very eyes and always see the light and perfection of who you are. Some of my clients thought they’d always have to live with their pains. Through our work together, they’ve been able to forever free themselves.”

The listeners are welcome to take a free assessment that will help them identify where they may be leaking their power and energy.

Guest Biography:

CHRIS PAN

I was born in Taipei and moved to Cincinnati when I was 7, not speaking a word of English. I had a lonely childhood as I couldn’t communicate for 2 years and was bullied often as the only scrawny Asian kid in my class. The local Chinese church was my refuge and I discovered my love for group singing there, and I ended up learning guitar and leading weekly services.

After college, I focused on my career and stepped away from music until I was working at Facebook where I started a cover band with colleagues in 2009. It brought me so much joy.

After I left Facebook and went through a terrible break-up in 2013, I ended up at an intense personal growth retreat called the Hoffman Process where we surrendered our phones and immersed ourselves in 15-hours of deep inner work each day.

I played for the first time in decades and found myself releasing a lifetime of sadness, stress, and anxiety. I felt true joy for the first time ever. I felt for the first time. I had numbed most of my life as a way to protect myself.

On the last day, we were invited to set an intention for our next chapter. Mine was to bring this magical experience of connecting with our true selves to those who didn’t have a week and $5k. That was the vision for my next chapter – a safe space for inner work and connection, and make it fun and accessible for everyone to enjoy.

After the retreat, I was still in a world of pain. I would wake-up and karaoke for an hour to soothe. Songs like “Let Her Go” and “When I Was Your Man” allowed me to release my feelings. I remember hearing “Don’t You Worry Child” and thought how powerful that message was and how cool it would be to sing that together with others.

When I moved to LA in 2013, I started hosting gatherings at my house called SpiritSundays where we would sing, move, paint, play, and make intention bracelets. I am not a jewelry guy. But I loved the conversations asking someone their WORD would spark, and the connection we would have when I stamped someone their WORD.

For the past 9 years, I’ve been trying different forms of therapy, and have found embodiment work to be the most powerful for me as a lot of our stress and traumas are stored in our body. Talking alone is not enough for me.

I’ve been leading inspirational workshops since I was in college, and a lot the past 9 years with MyIntent. So VoMo is just the next evolution of my workshops with a lot of live music and vocal activation to take people on the journey of a lifetime – from their head to their heart where they find their true intention.

Vision for VoMo & MyIntent:

The world in harmony, living with intent.Through intentional movement of our bodies and voices, we create joy and gain freedom. These self-care practices enable us to feel loved and inspired to serve. Find your clarity. Live with purpose. Use your voice.All are invited. Come as you are and feel at home. This is a safe and judgmental-free space for play, discovery, and connection.We’ve never been so isolated, stressed, and divided.As we arise together, we will be the change for our generation.

With service,

Chris Pan
