Abstract Essay

Wendi Bay

I help women escape the illusions of corporate life and step into soul-aligned freedom.

I am Wendi Bay — speaker, coach, and author of the new ebook How the Corporation Keeps Us Stuck at Level 0...and the Path To Level 1 Civilization.

My mission is to expose how the corporation, in its many forms — from toxic workplace culture to healthcare, Big Pharma, education, religion, entertainment, and government — has held humanity in a state of stagnation that doesn't even register on the universal scale of progress.

Through my work, I help individuals (especially women) recognize these hidden systems of control, break free from corporate conditioning, and reclaim their energy, purpose, and sovereignty.

My latest book pulls back the curtain on how deeply these systems shape our daily lives and offers a path forward for those ready to rise beyond Level 0.

America in Therapy: A New Approach to Hope and Healing for a Nation in Crisis

America in Therapy presents an unprecedented perspective, envisioning the entire nation as a patient in dire need of therapy.

In the first book of its kind, Leavitt highlights a crucial missing piece from national political discourse – the declining state of America's mental health – and emphasizes that addressing our nation's ills from a psychological perspective takes us beyond partisanship altogether.

Through a blend of personal anecdotes, client case studies, and historical insights, she correlates the destructive dynamics in families with the harmful behaviors of influential institutions and leaders. Using principles like Family Systems Theory and her own innovative concepts, Leavitt paints a vivid picture of the consequences of untreated societal trauma.

America in Therapy not only informs but also inspires actions towards reconciliation, unity, and healing. Aimed at a diverse audience, from social reformers to young adults navigating an uncertain future, Leavitt's work underscores

Jamie Lima

Jamie M. Lima, MBA, CFP® - Founder and President, Woodson Wealth Management; Founder, Allegiant Divorce Solutions

After watching my parents go through a divorce at a young age, and going through a tremendously expensive and emotionally-draining one myself in 2017, I launched Allegiant Divorce Solutions as a sister company to my financial planning firm, Woodson Wealth Management.

I recognize the challenges people face as they decide how to handle their finances relating to divorce. My parents struggled and it was challenging for me, too. Looking back, there were mistakes I made during my own divorce that could have been avoided had I had the support of a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst ®.

At present, armed with this ever-growing knowledge and almost 20 years of financial planning experience, I am dedicated to helping my clients navigate the complex aspects of divorce and gain a fair settlement, with much less stress.

Before We Forget: The Guide to Personal and Collective Awakening

Modern life numbs us into a trance. We perform, consume, and repeat blindly while drifting further from the natural rhythms that sustain us. Behind it all, dominant institutions, economic systems, and cultural myths dictate what we value and how we live, leaving us disoriented and disconnected from the truth of who we are. Before We Forget is a wake-up call. With insight and urgency, Aaron reveals the illusions that distort our perception and keep us asleep, while offering a path back to alignment, integrity, and presence. This book is an invitation to remember that we are all part of something sacred, and that our future depends on embodying this connection in our daily lives.
