Meet Our Founder: Tess Sloane

The ***Real*** Bio
Part of my purpose is opening people's hearts, what a bizarre thing to say, but this is the best way I can articulate it to you - it's allowing people to feel seen in the messy middle. The parts of life where you feel lost, uncertain or unsure and haven’t quite triumphed or made it to the other side.
It's the time in my life when I discovered meditation and it changed everything for me. What I know now is that life is ultimately for us, we can choose to believe it is unfolding in our favour.
We each have an inner technology - our breath, that is available to us at any time. Mastery and regulation in this area allows us to breathe, pick up the pen, and continue to write the story that is our lives, but this time, with power and intention.
No matter what stage you are in life - maybe it is Chapter 2, or 2.5 or Chapter 6 - this is a safe space to “do your work”, to look within, to breathe, to enquire, to explore with like minded others.
I am Tess and I am glad you're here.

Meet Our Founder: ALISHA ADAMS

The ***Real*** Bio
Meditation started as a chore for me. It was on a very long list of things I tried to overcome many years of suffering from insomnia. While I did notice a change in my sleeping habits, it really felt like another to-do.
Fast forward 10 years, I am now a mother of 2 small children, entrepreneur, maintainer of house and home (that’s a title right?!) while striving to maintain all of the other pivotal roles in my life (wife, daughter, sister, friend). Living into this while navigating the ups and downs of life left me feeling like something was missing, how do I maintain it all and keep my own cup full?
This is where meditation has re-entered my life and suddenly doesn’t feel like a chore anymore. It is my sanctuary, a gift to myself, my grounding. I crave the ritual of sitting still with myself and checking in. I often get asked (as many working mothers do) how do I “balance” it all. The real answer is I don’t, but I am able to navigate the highs and lows of this beautiful at times chaotic life through a simple daily practice.
Mindfulness meditation is backed by science and is accessible to everyone. So if you are someone that is seeking deeper connection, looking to elevate your performance or simply be present for all of life’s special moments – you have come to the right place.
