Meet your storytellers:

Freed from Cult Fear - David Schmidt

Imagine discovering that everything you’ve been taught to believe is a lie – having been drummed into you by a high-control cult since birth. When Dave came to this realisation in his early 30’s, he recognised that the only way to be true to himself was to leave his past and start afresh. This path of discovery has led him to freedom and joy but at great personal cost.

Crossing the Pacific – Anick Patry

Anick Patry had a crazy, wild, adventurous idea that took her on the most unknown and tumultuous journey. She decided to travel to Australia from Quebec by sailboat. While her sea journey forced her to face her greatest fears, it also led her into accessing her inner resources and her inner GPS (intuitive guidance). During that incredible expedition, Anick discovered how powerful mother nature is, especially when she found herself captured in the most challenging storm at sea where she thought her life was ending…

K-Drama Addiction – Marie El Daghl

How one bad Korean Drama lead to a full blown Kdrama addiction that saw Marie, a mother and marketer rip through 70 shows in two years and counting. Addict or expert? You be the judge, but either way, this is one random story of Kultural discovery.

Redefining Disability - Justan Singh

Justan is the first male stripper with a colostomy bag in the world. Living with Crohn's disease, he went from having no friends and thinking he would die a virgin, to living his best life and inspiring others to thrive with their disability.

From the Future – Sylvina Beleniski

Argentinian born Sylvina claims she’s from the future, always embracing trends before they become mainstream. Despite being ahead of her time, she reflects on why she constantly sought external validation and struggled against societal pressure, only to see those choices become popular later.

Reflection Rising - Brent Woods

From his earliest days, Brent was raised amidst turmoil and strife. He found solace in the seductive allure of addiction and descended into a spiral of crime and violence, weaving a tangled web of lies and deceit. Guided by the gentle hand of spirit, Brent forged bonds of connection—with the natural world, with kindred souls, and with the depths of his own being. Through the transformative power of love, he began to unravel the tangled threads of his past, weaving them into a tapestry of resilience and rediscovery.
