Over the past year, Jean-Christian Rindoni’s perspective on business and life has evolved significantly. After more than two decades working across global markets in over 30 countries—building partnerships, managing supply chains, and developing international opportunities—he began to question the deeper purpose of business and the impact it creates.

Seeking clarity, he stepped away from constant activity and spent time in solitude in the mountains with his Labrador, Bud. During this period of reflection, he reexamined ideas of purpose, responsibility, and interconnectedness, ultimately viewing supply chains as ecosystems that can either extract or regenerate value.

This realization led to the creation of Symbiosis Infinity Group, an initiative focused on building responsible, ethical, and sustainable business ecosystems that bridge developing and developed markets. Today, his work centers on aligning profitability with social equity and environmental stewardship, redefining leadership as stewardship guided by purpose and awareness.

With more than 30 years of executive-level consulting experience across sectors and countries, including board-level advisory work, he helps senior leaders rethink what comes next after corporate life.

Jamie works primarily with executives aged 40 to 60 who are transitioning out of traditional roles—whether through redundancy, burnout, or choice.

Raúl T. Pereyra (RTP) is a first-generation Latino leader, coach, and the founder and CEO of RTP Learning.

Raised in East Los Angeles as the son of Mexican immigrants, Raúl overcame significant personal adversity — including a childhood in a home impacted by alcoholism — to transform his life’s challenges into a powerful foundation for purpose and leadership.

For over 25 years, he has worked across human resources, organizational development, diversity/equity/inclusion (DEI), and leadership training, helping nonprofit organizations, B-Corps, and socially conscious businesses build inclusive cultures and effective leadership. 

Driven by his own journey of “post-traumatic growth,” he developed a coaching framework called The BAG We Carry™ — addressing the Beliefs, Assumptions, and Guardians (inner-critic, limiting beliefs, old coping patterns) that often hold leaders back. Through Behavior‑First Coaching™, he helps first-time Latina/Latino and BIPOC CEOs, founders, and executives unpack their inner barriers, build self-awareness, and lead with clarity, integrity, and belonging.

Raúl’s work extends beyond individual coaching — he partners with mission-driven organizations to deliver structured training, DEI consulting, and leadership development that drive lasting culture change, better retention, and enhanced engagement. 

At the core of his mission: to transform what once felt like baggage into fuel for growth — helping leaders not just succeed in their roles, but lead with authenticity, purpose, and the confidence to belong boldly.

Shaun Bemis joined the Navy right after September 11th and spent the next two decades in service. He saw combat in Iraq and East Africa and operated everywhere from ships to intelligence centers. The military taught him how to lead under pressure, build systems in unpredictable environments, and focus on what matters when everything is on the line.

After transitioning out of the military, Shaun brought that same mindset into startups and executive leadership. He has helped brands scale, coached youth sports, and worked across travel, wellness, and e-commerce industries. Today, he serves as a Fractional COO for companies that need to stop spinning their wheels and start executing.

An ultramarathon runner, Shaun believes endurance sports are the perfect training ground for leadership and resilience. His last race was a 75k trail run on Mt. Kilimanjaro. His next challenge? An Ironman—his first triathlon—despite not owning a bike or swimming the crawl well. He’s taking it on with Team RWB to raise money in support of veterans.

Whether speaking about building stronger teams, leading through burnout, or creating systems that actually work, Shaun delivers real-world lessons drawn from combat zones, business operations, and endurance sports.

Larry Oberheu is a passionate health freedom advocate and the founder of Fresh Mouth, a non-toxic, nano-silver-based oral care company that challenges the mainstream narrative surrounding fluoride, disease, and control.

After leading one of the largest healthcare agencies in the United States, Oberheu uncovered a deeper truth: many chronic illnesses, neurological disorders, and energy imbalances originate in the mouth — and fluoride is not the solution, but part of the problem.

He speaks to those who are awake, aware, and unwilling to accept deception. Featured on platforms such as Laura Eisenhower, Kerry Cassidy, Man in America, and Patriot Party Network, Oberheu explores how oral health connects to consciousness, sovereignty, and energetic alignment — and how modern dental care represents a subtle war on both biology and spirit.

About Fresh Mouth

Fresh Mouth is more than a toothpaste brand — it’s a tool for liberation. The company replaces fluoride with nano silver, a natural, bioelectric-friendly solution designed to cleanse the mouth, protect the oral biome, and support full-spectrum health — without the brain-dulling chemicals often found in conventional products.

Through the Fresh Mouth Club subscription model, the company offers a complete oral reset system that includes antibacterial nano silver paste, UV-sanitized electric brushes, ozone and hydrogen therapy, and gum-healing swish blends.

After publishing a successful book, Tommy Kilpatrick was contracted with an infomercial company and spent six months promoting it—living on three credit cards in anticipation of earning $100,000 a month. When another author with the company faced legal trouble, all new contracts were canceled, leaving Kilpatrick with $85,000 in credit card debt.

Drawing on his accounting background, Kilpatrick concluded that bank-issued credit cards are not true loans without a signed promissory note. He sued three banks in federal court, and although the cases were dismissed, the debts were removed from his credit report with no derogatory marks or IRS 1099-C filings.

Kilpatrick now educates audiences on the claim that, without a promissory note, no actual bank loan or debt exists—only a bookkeeping entry—and outlines how individuals might use this principle to eliminate similar debts.

With a background in East Asian Religious Studies and as a certified Reiki Master, Kerry brings a unique blend of ancient wisdom and modern neuroscience to her storytelling.

Embracing the role of “Red Pill Shaman,” she draws from physics, psychology, and energy healing to explore how pain becomes a portal to personal power.

Courtney Stanfield is a veteran Canadian TV broadcaster, mother of three, and a mental wellness innovator. She created Air Out! to give people a place to feel heard without judgment, debate, or backlash. The idea came to her in a dream so vivid that she started reaching out to app developers in the middle of the night.

Air Out! is an anonymous chat space designed to bring instant relief to the nervous system. With no usernames, no interaction between users, a 100-character limit, and built-in language filters, it’s a safe, simple way to vent, confess, brag, or unburden thoughts. Originally launched to help parents manage the stresses of raising children, the app has grown into a supportive outlet for everyone, with six themed chat spaces.

Courtney believes unspoken thoughts and feelings weigh people down with guilt and shame. Air Out! acts like a modern virtual diary — a place where anyone can share freely, knowing no one will ever know who they are. While posts are visible to read, no one can comment, putting an end to social media arguments and negativity. It’s simple, private, and powerfully effective.

“There isn’t a single person who wouldn’t benefit from using Air Out! It’s a place to set yourself free.” — Courtney Stanfield, Founder
