"When we choose to run a business, we choose to bring life into something." - Worthy Stokes

About Worthy:

At 34 years old Worthy Stokes was hit by a 15 passenger van in Seoul while out for a morning run and listening to U2; she began to hemorrhage to death.

She miraculously awakened 2 hours later from a complex, traumatic brain injury; she used her years of advanced practice with meditation to recover against all odds. She is the executive producer of HeartMind Meditations, which organize your neurological intelligence via the auditory cortex for optimal coherence that lasts.

Irrevocably changed by her Death Experience, she applies a sacred, mystical devotion to her private sessions and public talks. She lives with anosmia, ageusia, and acute motion blindness. She is advanced in Deep Frequency Listening since sustaining a complicated sensory loss; her capacity to transform the power of pain into the power of possibility is exceptional, nuanced, and clear.

Jera Foster-Fell was born and raised in NYC, studied Fine Art at USC, and worked as a graphic designer in LA, Boston, and New York in what she likes to call her 'former life'.

After working at several terrible jobs, ending a long-term relationship, and struggling with social anxiety, she hit an all-time low. But in 2015, everything changed. She found a new passion for life through the combination of exercise and social media. Over the last three years, Jera has grown her lifestyle account to close to 200,000 followers, became an Adidas ambassador, pursued her dream of becoming a SoulCycle instructor, all while openly sharing both her triumphs and failures along the way. Covering topics from mental health to beauty and style, Jera's goal is to empower women to get out of their comfort zones and to build confidence in themselves along the way.
