Shannon Gorres
Life Coach, MDiv, MA
Life has a way of shaping us through both beauty and heartbreak. I deeply understand anger, anxiety, and existential dilemmas. My own journey has been one of profound feeling, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to growth.
Growth begins when we are willing to meet ourselves with honesty, curiosity, and care. For two decades I cultivated knowledge and skills to help others move through intense emotional pain, life transitions, and spiritual questions with greater clarity, resilience, and purpose. I faced seasons that tested everything I thought I knew. Healing from a narcissistic relationship, navigating a challenging postpartum year, grieving the loss of my mother, and embracing unexpected identity changes~ this all became part of my awakening. These experiences- combined with years of dedicated study and personal reflection- have deepened my compassion and understanding of the healing process. My work honors both the unique human spirit and the sacredness woven into everyday life.
Today, as a Master of Divinity and Certified Nature and Forest Therapy Guide, I help people reconnect with their true selves, cultivate emotional healing, and explore a deeper relationship with the Divine. My work is grounded in authenticity, empathy, and meaningful transformation.
The values guiding my life are integrity, compassion, and wholehearted depth. I'd love to learn what values are leading you on your journey today.

Dr. Annette Gallardo, PhD
Life Coach, Christian Marriage Coach for Wives
Are you a Christian wife who loves God and wants a stronger marriage, but feels like you're the only one trying? Are you exhausted by the same arguments, feeling unheard, and longing to feel loved, understood, and connected to your husband again?
I help Christian wives break painful communication patterns, rebuild confidence, establish healthy boundaries, and take steps toward healing, rebuilding trust, and emotional connection with God's help—even when their husbands aren't ready to participate.
With God's help, you can begin making healthy changes without waiting for your husband to change.
Online Christian marriage coaching is available nationwide in English and Spanish.

Monica S. Scarborough, CCHt.
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist CCHt, C.L.C, C.S.C., ORDM, Author
At Mystical Aqoostix, my mission is to help you get to the absolute root cause of emotional hurdles, stress, and trauma rather than simply managing surface symptoms. True healing is a holistic journey that requires balancing the conscious mind, the subconscious mind, and the body’s natural energetic frequencies. By combining talk therapy and clinical hypnotherapy with metaphysics, somatic breathwork, mudras, and vocalized mantras, we help you see your life experiences from a completely new perspective. We utilize targeted tuning forks and specific sound frequencies to center your nervous system and shift your inner vibrations. Whether you are seeking individual transformation, couples alignment, or family counseling, I provide a safe, nurturing, and judgment-free sanctuary to help you release what no more serves you, reclaim your personal power, and find lasting peace.
