About Cameron Allen:

I am an astrologer, herbalist, Reiki practitioner, health consultant, budding yoga practitioner and spontaneous poet. I just want to start by sharing a little bit about myself that I feel is relevant to my work.

Firstly, I want to thank my parents. I grew up with a mother who was an enthusiast for the empowerment of women and always encouraged me how to think, instead of what to think. My father taught me about the discipline it takes to achieve in the world and the importance of understanding the discernment of life circumstances. These virtues instilled within me integrated in a way that created space for me to engage in a deeply uplifting and motivating practice, while also assisting others in finding out how to “walk the spiritual path with practical feet”, as one of my teachers says.

I began this path in college, while in pursuit of a health and sports science and psychology degree, where I experienced many things that could not be explained in current academia. This led me to seek a variety of traditions in order to understand the mind-body awareness connection. I started to build a deep relationship with nature which allowed me to de-condition myself enough to access an underlying energetic architecture that weaves through all traditions and is rooted in the understanding of nature.

All of my practices are grounded in years of invaluable direct experience with clients as the in-house herbalist and holistic health consultant working at a popular Spiritual supply store in Memphis, TN. Insights from elders, crystal healers, rootworkers, and basing my astrological practice in applicable and relevant circumstances has shaped my practice. Through these experiences I have accessed something beyond trust and faith in the Divine order of life.

Apart from my work with clients, I have extensive formal education from the School of Evolutionary Herbalism and the School of Evolutionary Astrology. I am Reiki attuned by my most influential teacher of life and spirit, Norma de Jesus. I am currently in the process of attaining my 200 hr RYT in Kundalini Yoga from Delta Groove Yoga in Memphis. I am also training to become an Ayurvedic Practitonrer. As I journey through higher education, I continue to deepen my knowledge in the interconnectivity of all traditions as they show me perspectives reflected in nature and begin with the Creator who unifies us all in spirit through the breath.

Today on @ConnectedCaroline, we talk to self-described digital nomad Kennedy Shelton who has fully embraced this emerging work/travel lifestyle. Because of rising housing costs and a collective movement to live in and around nature in a sustainable manner, this lifestyle has become the next wave of live/work disruption.  Kennedy is around like-minded people, and travels the globe, all while her career flourishes.  Listen in and find out more about Kennedy and the digital nomad movement. 

ChatGPT definition of Digital Nomad:

A digital nomad is a person who uses digital technology to work remotely and has the freedom to travel and work from anywhere in the world. Digital nomads typically rely on laptops, smartphones, and internet access to carry out their work and communicate with their clients or colleagues. This lifestyle allows individuals to work and travel simultaneously, often with the ability to choose their own working hours and location.

Peggi Cooney entered the motivational speaking world through her journey to sobriety and her recently published book, This Side of Alcohol: Random thoughts and candid words of pain, hope, humor, love — and all that is possible in sobriety. 

This Side of Alcohol is borne out of the cathartic journaling she did during the first two years following her break-up with alcohol. It tells the story of what she did to get and stay sober, allowing her to transform her shame, guilt, and anger into self-compassion, self-discovery, and forgiveness – of herself and others. 

From self-loathing isolation to a joyous community of support and rediscovered intimacy with her family. From living her life engulfed in cognitive dissonance (teaching about the connection between trauma and addiction while she was drinking every evening) to the pride she feels today in being present and authentic in every aspect of her work and life. This Side of Alcohol is her story of living her sobriety out loud, telling the truth, and being at peace... 

Peggi is a social work instructor/coach for a local California University. She has a Master’s degree from California State University at Chico and spent 16 years as a Child Welfare and Adult Protective Services social worker. Peggi has become a sobriety advocate all over the world. She facilitates a weekly recovery support group and is currently working on the development of a sobriety tool to be released in 2022. 

Peggi has been married to Paul for 35 years. Together they have five children and 12 grandchildren. They make their homes in West Sacramento and Lake Almanor, California.

A Note From Seibo Shen: 

Hi, I'm Seibo Shen, I'm an entrepreneur, mindset and business coach and I have been part of six successful exits. While I have spoken at SXSW, ArcView, New West Summit, and been interviewed by publications such as Business Insider and Forbes, I still did not feel content with my accomplishments. 

I found out that if you live by society’s standards, you will never feel fulfilled because those weren’t your dreams to begin with. I felt betrayed by society, I did everything I was supposed to do to be happy. I sacrificed my time, my health, and my relationships. 

I decided to do a 180 and became ULTRA SPIRITUAL. This provided me with a lot of relief from the mental suffering and pressure that I felt as an entrepreneur but I could also see downsides to always living in the moment and trusting that the universe will take care of you. 

This led me to create a framework that would take the best from both worlds. I wanted to combine practical, utilitarian skills with a metaphysical ideology so that you can lead a life of passion and purpose without sacrificing abundance. Now, I want to share this framework with as many people who want to begin prioritizing fulfillment and have self-mastery over their own lives.

The theme of Art & Nature speaks particularly to the identity of Laguna Beach, which for over a hundred years has fostered art, the love of nature, and environmental awareness. In 1929, when the Laguna Beach Art Association built a gallery to show and sell their work, they chose a commanding location on the coastline, close to the natural wonders they loved to paint. The present museum occupies the same site. There could be no more appropriate venue in which to explore the art-nature connection.

Julie Perlin Lee joined Laguna Art Museum as Executive Director in May 2021. Previously she was Executive Director at the Catalina Island Museum, and Vice President of Collections and Exhibition Development at the Bowers Museum.

At Catalina Island Museum from 2016 to 2021, Lee led a period of growth including high-profile exhibitions and educational programs, and the completion of a capital project for the museum’s new permanent facility which opened in 2016. At the Bowers Museum from 2008 to 2016, she procured acquisitions for the museum’s permanent collection, directed research and preservation, organized exhibitions, and contributed to publications. She holds a BA in Art History, MFA in Exhibition Design, and Certificate in Museum Studies from California State University, Fullerton.

Keren Flavell is a seasoned entrepreneur who has raised capital, grown early-stage revenue and played a key role in several startups. She has worked at the intersection of media, technology and community for over thirty years. 

She wrote a best-selling guidebook to national parks and produced an award-winning online documentary featured at Sundance. 

More recently, she founded a civic technology application called Townhall Social that was used by over 70 government organizations worldwide to engage citizens in decision-making. 

She has spoken at over thirty conferences, including presenting to the European Council, the Personal Democracy Forum in NYC, SXSW, XMediaLab and the Screen Producers Association of Australia.

Later that year, Drew decided his next business had to focus on social impact and SHOPINV, an app focused on ending poverty was born. Funding this venture via Venture Capitalists who marketed themselves as Social Impact investors proved to be impossible for a Black man in America. Drew was told, to his face, by a VC Owner that his investors would not invest in a Black man trying to end poverty. So, Drew went back to the drawing board and decided to strategically postpone SHOPINV. 

It was after George Floyd was murdered and the people took to the streets to protest for days on end that Drew decided to build his third business BLVCK$FUND (pronounced Black Dollar Fund), which would never require funds from VC’s. All his revolutionary system would need to succeed is informed Black people and allies who thoroughly understand and applaud the goal of bridging the wealth gap after 400-plus years. 

His ingenious plan incorporates group economics to invest in Black people and their communities. Andrew’s BLVCK$FUND strategy would take less than 10% of the Black population to participate and could yield roughly $650M per year to be solely invested in Black people and their communities throughout the 50 States.

This is a vulnerable retelling of the tragic death of a son and a father's journey to integrate this heart-wrenching loss into his life. Through this relatable story, you will discover universal themes that are relevant to all kinds of grief, not just the loss of a child. Along the way, you will gain insight into what it looks like to learn how to live after a devastating loss and compassionately care for those who are grieving.

Amidst the pain and sorrow of the loss of his son, Ed Lee, is forced to discover what moving forward looks like. He is open and honest about his experience, sharing his struggles and what he found helpful. This is not a story he ever wanted to tell, but knowing how difficult of a journey it has been, he presses past his resistance to talk about these things, hoping it will help others who have experienced similar losses.

He is not writing as an expert who has been trained in grief. He is a father who knows what it feels like to be tossed about by waves of grief and disbelief which follow the death of a child. He understands the frustration of unanswerable questions and the temptation to numb the pain. He also knows how important it is to not take these waves alone, and that there is help to be found.

Ed has experienced what it is like to get up after being knocked down by a crushing wave, and if you have lost someone you love, he hopes this book will help you do the same. If you are a friend of someone who has lost a loved one, he hopes this book will help you understand what they are going through and how you can come alongside them.

Damone Roberts’ name is synonymous with creating iconic beauty and his renowned talent for sculpting the perfect arch. He is known for painting the features and shaping the brows of some of the world’s prominent beauties and famous faces, including Oprah, Madonna, Beyoncé, Kamala Harris (Madame Vice President), Rihanna, Kim Kardashian, Ariana Grande, Taraji P. Henson, Channing Tatum, Alicia Keys, Christina Aguilera, Nicki Minaj, and Robert Downey Jr., to name a few. 

In 2002 Damone created his flagship brow salon, Damone Roberts Beverly Hills ®. Damone’s philosophy is that each person exudes their own individual beauty and that every face deserves the perfect frame®. In December of 2019, Damone decided to close his Beverly Hills salon, which he ran successfully in this location for 18 years, and another simultaneously in NYC for over 10. He was one of the first black business owners to have a stand-alone Beverly Hills location. He knew, instinctively, that it was time to make a change and open a Beauty Therapy Lounge in a smaller more intimate location giving opportunity for an even more customer-orientated salon. 

That decision allowed him to manage the enormous challenges we have all faced in 2020-21, and to react appropriately. It also allowed Damone to focus on his Television work and to enjoy hosting a series of weekly Beauty Therapy IG Lives, that had thousands tuning in to hear him and his guests share how they made their brands thrive. Damone has been asked to guest on numerous successful Podcasts aside from Hosting his own The Starplucker Podcast. Most recently, Damone was asked to take part in the Tamron Hall show on their first Beauty Bar Special. Damone was asked to work with Nicole Kidman to design her look for the 2021 film I Love Lucy. May 2022 saw Damone featured on The Tamron Hall Show's first-ever Beauty Bar Special. 

Damone Roberts’ distinctive flair has immortalized him in pop culture as an answer in the 2004 edition of the board game Trivial Pursuit, and most recently as a question on the world’s leading game show Jeopardy. His talent expanded from Beauty into Acting in Ava DuVernay’s first acclaimed feature film I Will Follow, as well as her 2020 Television series, Cherish the Day for OWN. 

Damone was a regular contributing beauty editor with his own column titled Dear Damone for Oprah.com. His passion for creating the perfect arch has been featured on countless TV shows and has graced the covers of some of the globe’s top magazines. His signature products have been featured on many shows and channels including MSNBC, The View, BET, Access Hollywood, Oprah, Good Morning America, CNN.

"This documentary by award-winning filmmaker Ondi Timoner brings together artists, political leaders, the lead prosecutor against big pharma, recovering addicts, and those working on the frontlines to fight this - the deadliest drug epidemic in history. We want to ground the opioid epidemic in stories that show us just how connected we are, and what's at stake when we turn away from one another. Most importantly, we wanted to connect the dots on how we got here, and how we can find our way out of this crisis."

About Ondi Timoner:

Ondi Timoner is known to be one of the greatest talents in non-fiction filmmaking. She often takes on the stories of visionaries fighting against all odds with a gripping and unique narrative style. Ondi has the rare distinction of winning the Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival twice - for her documentary, DIG! (2004) and WE LIVE IN PUBLIC (2009). Both films were acquired by MoMA, NY for its permanent collection. Other award-winning features include: THE NATURE OF THE BEAST (1994), JOIN US (2007), COOL IT (2010), BRAND: A SECOND COMING (2015) and COMING CLEAN (2020). 

In 2017, Ondi created and produced the critically-acclaimed 10-hour nonfiction television series JUNGLETOWN about the building of “the world's most sustainable town” for Viceland. Ondi wrote, directed, produced and edited the scripted film, MAPPLETHORPE, starring Matt Smith. After premiering at Tribeca, the film was released theatrically in 2019 after winning eight Audience Awards and Best Narrative Feature at several festivals. The MAPPLETHORPE Director’s Cut will be released in the Spring of 2021. Ondi has also produced and directed music videos for The Dandy Warhols, The Vines, Paul Westerberg, Lucinda Williams, Vanessa Carlton, The Jonas Brothers, and Run DMC, among others. Ondi was nominated for a Grammy for Best Long Form Music Video for an EPK she directed about the band Fastball in 1999. 

Ondi has also enjoyed a career in front of the camera, interviewing filmmakers and innovators for a number of shows. In 2011, she created and hosted BYOD (Bring Your Own Doc) for thelip.tv producing over 300 episodes with top documentary filmmakers over five years. In 2012, she founded A TOTAL DISRUPTION, an online network dedicated to telling the stories of entrepreneurs & artists who are using technology to innovate new ways to live. Subjects include musician Amanda Palmer, graphic artist Shepard Fairey, comedian Russell Brand, musician Moby, Twitter-founder Jack Dorsey, Instagram-founder Kevin Systrom, and the late founder of Zappos, Tony Hsieh. Ondi has released two master classes for filmmakers, “Lean Content” with Eric Ries & “How to Make a Great Documentary (In My Opinion).” 

Additionally, Ondi has produced & hosted WeTalk, a traveling talk show about the women shaping our culture with the mission of taking #MeToo to #WeDo, since 2018. In 2014, she gave a popular TEDxKC talk entitled “When Genius and Insanity Hold Hands” explaining why she tells the stories of “impossible visionaries.” Ondi is currently helming a new film called ALONE, TOGETHER (w.t.) which looks through the eyes of scientists and artists at how technology is transforming our ways of connecting and loving, given the societal trend towards increasing physical isolation, accelerated by the onset of the COVID-19 global pandemic. Ondi Timoner is a member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences, the DGA, the PGA, the International Documentary Association, Film Fatales and Women in Film.

Jenn's Bio: I'm Jenn (aka SoberSis). I'm a new empty-nester and people ask me all the time what I'm going to do in this next season of my life. Well, you're looking at it. I feel passionate about making it safe for women to have a conversation about alcohol without judgment, labels, or rules. 

I'm a retired "grey area" drinker. Around the middle of my 40's, I was tired, feeling stuck on auto-pilot, and ready for a change. I didn't want to enter the big 5-0 the way I did 40. I took a closer look at my life. My health...mental, physical, and spiritual. I began to find out ways to have more energy, better sleep, and really stay present in my own life. I began to realize wine wasn't doing me any real favors. In fact, it was undoing a lot of my hard work during the day (I call it the detox just to retox loop). It had also become like an emotional crutch to lean on during times of anxiety or even boredom! 

So, I started the 21-day reset for women because I wanted to share what I have learned and experienced first hand. Currently, over 2,000 women from all over the world have participated. We're more of sisterhood, and a real community of women pursuing being present and sober-minded. Each person has the opportunity and space to renegotiate their relationship with alcohol. We are not a sobriety club although many of us do choose to enjoy an alcohol-free lifestyle. 

I've spent time taking a break from drinking without having to use willpower or feeling deprived. In fact, I'd say it has turned into more of a mindful lifestyle. Learning the science behind what my body/mind was experiencing has empowered me to make different choices. It's like I was living a somewhat divided life, constantly feeling in conflict and stuck in an internal tug-of-war. God really brought me freedom by bringing together the mind-body-spirit connection so I could live a more wholehearted life. 

That's how I want to live as I get closer to my 50's and beyond. Produced by K-Line Media Group
