Mike brings light and energy into the world through his dedication to helping others overcome their daily battles with mental health. 

A natural-born leader, Mike’s strength comes from his ability to relate and connect with people from all walks of life. With integrity, kindness, and compassion, Mike brings empathy and a deeper human connection to those seeking his guidance. With an emphasis on taking a wide-angle view of the human experience, people are instantly put at ease in his presence. He shows a deep appreciation and profound respect to all who engage with him.

 Initially setting out to bring happiness to others through the art of acting, and later, by creating once-in-a-lifetime experiences for guests on the music festival circuit- it wasn’t until a particularly dark period of uncertainty and unfulfillment that Mike started to seek a greater purpose in life. Struggling from panic attacks and bouts of crippling anxiety himself, Mike quickly discovered there were limited resources available to help him and even fewer people comfortable enough to talk about it. Mike decided it was time to take a leap of faith. Strongly believing in the importance of investing in yourself, and through a long journey of self-reflection and mediation, “A Mind’s Pursuit” was born from the desire to change the conversation surrounding mental health.

Chef Kori Sutton discovered her love of cooking early - born in Newport Beach, she learned on her feet in her family’s catering business. Her grandfather was the Executive Chef at the iconic Moulin Rouge and The Brown Derby in Hollywood.

Chef Kori trained at the Culinary Institute of America and completed her internship under renowned Master Chef de Cuisine, Thierry Blouet, at Café des Artiste’s French Bistro in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. She was the only woman allowed in the kitchen at the time.

Since then, Chef Kori has immersed herself in all facets of the gastronomic industry, working at upscale restaurants, hotels, and in private homes for celebrities and high net worth individuals. She has participated in prestigious international gourmet events in Aspen, New York, and Mexico.

Her cooking style is an infusion of Latin and international flavors with the modernization of old-school techniques. She recently launched Mama Kori Salsa, handcrafted and small-batch salsas inspired by the Jalisco-style recipes of her family.

Chef Kori is currently appearing on HELL’S KITCHEN Season 19, airing Thursdays at 8/7c on FOX. She previously appeared on Top Chef Mexico and was a winner on Cutthroat Kitchen.

Jianna Bonomi is a professional fitness model and inspirational writer. 

Her career began when she was recruited and offered full-ride scholarships from over 20 division 1 programs during high school. She played indoor volleyball at The University of San Diego and beach volleyball at The University of Arizona. She represented CA in the California Polynesian All-Stars, was nominated for The City of Lakewood's Youth Hall of Fame and was asked to represent the United States on the USA Women's Collegiate National Volleyball Team. 

In July 2018, Jianna was hit head-on by a drunk driver going 90 mph. Her feet were shattered, she had pulmonary embolisms in both lungs, three broken ribs, a broken wrist, a concussion, multiple lacerations all over her body, and was bleeding internally from a third-degree lacerated liver. She spent 3 days in the ICU and over 3 weeks in the hospital before being transferred to a Rehabilitation Hospital for an additional 2 weeks. After 4 surgeries, 4 plates, and 26 screws later, Jianna is legally disabled. 

She was on heavy pain medication, a morphine drip every 15 minutes, and went cold turkey in less than 3 months after the hospital. Jianna went to physical therapy 4-5x a week where she retaught herself how to walk, and began EMDR therapy for the severe PTSD, anxiety, and depression following the accident. Needless to say, she was told by all doctors her active lifestyle was no longer an option. 

This past June, Jianna was cast on Beachbody's new high-intensity interval program Muscle Burns Fat (MBF) and was asked to join Muscle Burns Fat Advanced (MBFA) following that.

Originally from Adelaide, South Australia - Alicia is now based in Los Angeles, California.
She was drawn to the stage after seeing Adelaide icon, Dorinda Hafner in a play called "The Colour Keeper And The Gwobbles" at the age of 7. It was at this moment that Alicia knew she was born to tell stories that made people feel something.

Alicia went on to become a critically acclaimed theatre actress in her hometown. She has also regularly appeared on television and film in both Australia and the United States. Most importantly, Alicia was typecast as Vampire on True Blood, the role she was born to play.

Since the birth of her daughter, acting has taken a backseat for Alicia so that she could focus on her other passion - writing. She ran the successful mommy blog, 'Bottle Poppin Mama' for 3 years and is a freelance writer for Mamamia.com.au.

Prior to following her true path and embracing her dreams, Alicia worked in corporate sales and marketing for major international companies. She also invents things and designs shoes in her spare time.

Alicia's first love is traveling, and she hopes to eventually hit the road with the family and world school her kids from far-flung places while chasing the sun and turning strangers into friends.
