Three decades on the path. Thirteen years as a practitioner. Eight hundred retreats and fifteen thousand hours guiding therapists, physicians, designers, and leaders home to themselves.

— Vonetta E. Taylor

Working with Vonetta has been nothing short of a revelation. As someone trained in allopathic medicine — and somewhat of a skeptic — I have come to understand how rare it is for someone with such clear, innate capacity to access the spiritual realm, and simultaneously possess the discipline, sobriety, and purpose requisite for effective leadership to make large-scale change. There is no one I'd rather guide us into a new way of being than Vonetta. She is a veritable gift of light.

Vonetta's mentorship gave me my life back! She helped me remember my joy and passions — and work through the stuck places. What I appreciate most is that while she offered tools she made sure that I called on my own knowledge and wisdom to get to the next level.

Vonetta has a clarity that is parallel to none. I have been a student of hers for 15 years. As a psychotherapist and energy healer with three decades of practice, what I developed with Vonetta expanded my ability to perceive beyond the physical in ways my traditional training never reached.

Through the frameworks covered in this course, I've gained the tools and capacity to make my work sacred, where discipline became devotion. It is — without question — the best investment I have made towards self-mastery in years.

Nothing less than life changing. Vonetta helped me get back in touch with my true nature and the miracle of living in presence and awareness. From this foundation, I've been inspired to create my new world.
