Kat Lee is a Trauma-Informed Emotional and Somatic Alchemy Coach, host of The Empowered Curiosity Podcast, and Creator of The Heart Lab. She guides her community to rewrite their relationship to safety, love, trust, and belonging so they are able to cultivate conscious relationships and manifest their Dao (purpose). 

Kat believes that healing is a deep remembrance of who you are + recognizing that you are not broken. She believes that the Body, Mind, and Soul are interconnected and respond best to an integrated approach where all the parts of you are remembered. She believes in leaving room for magic. For slowing down to allow your intuition and Truth to rise to the surface. For finding validation through being rather than doing. For flowing through life being actively allowing rather than grasping. Kat’s role as coach and space-holder is to be your mirror and share tools and techniques that lead you back to the clarity of your own Heart and autonomy to make choices that are best for you, your body and your Spirit.

Elliott Brinkley is the owner of an herbal apothecary in Durango, CO called Dancing Willow Herbs. She began her professional herbal journey working at Dancing Willow Herbs in 2015 as the medicine maker. In addition to her hands-on experience, Elliott is a Certified Herbalist with over 600 hours of training from the Colorado School of Clinical Herbalism and Herbalist Paul Bergner.

Tara Lanich-LaBrie has been growing, foraging, and creating food and medicine in relationship with the plants for more than 20 years. She is a forever student of the plant realms and loves to share what she is learning through the lens of food. Tara creates colorful, gluten, dairy, and refined sugar-free food that are plant-focused with the intention that it gets people curious about the plants and how we can protect them. 

Tara believes that food is fundamental to our human community, weaving together what our ancestors knew was beyond survival; it is essential to our emotional, physical, and spiritual health. Food is integral to our reciprocal relationship with the land, people, and the many beings that inhabit our planet.
