Sophia Soul, SacredU.LOve

Few people have had the life Sophia has and gone on to lead a worldwide organisation dedicated to empowering self and others. Born with a genetic disorder and having undergone around 30 operations, Sophia faced chronic pain, bullying, abuse, and mental health struggles, including suicide attempts. She says, “I have lived through many challenges and transformed my life through constant practice and awareness.”

Her unique perspective led her on a lifelong spiritual journey, including over 30 years of meditation and 18 years in Meditation and Retreat Centres, where she discovered true self-esteem: valuing oneself regardless of others’ approval. Sound healing and breathwork became her tools to heal physically and emotionally, enabling her to live free of pain and drugs. Positive thought and self-esteem transformed her life, filling it with possibilities and gratitude.

This journey inspired Sophia to create Our Sacred Community, a global platform connecting like-minded people to empower women, share passions, and support each other in fulfilling their dreams and purpose. Their mission: “Touch Lives Everywhere.”

As Anita Moorjani reminds us: “Remember Your Magnificence.”

Founder

Tywanah Evette/Thunderbird Rising

Thunderbird Rising (Tywanah Evette) is an Intergenerational Authority Strategist and the founder of The Veil & The Flame™, a Shaman, and a High Priestess, where she advises women entering visible institutional power to stabilize authority before expansion magnifies inherited patterns. Her work examines the subtle architecture shaping leadership—how intergenerational conditioning influences decision-making, visibility, and influence long before authority is consciously claimed.

A two-time best-selling author with more than 4,000 private advisory and spiritual sessions conducted, Thunderbird integrates leadership strategy, lineage-informed inquiry, and disciplined authority architecture to help women lead from conscious authorship rather than unconscious inheritance.

Her name, Thunderbird Rising, is rooted in her Shinnecock lineage, passed down through her great-great-grandfather. It represents both ancestral stewardship and the responsibility to examine what is inherited before carrying it forward.

Through private immersions, executive advisory, speaking engagements, and curated leadership conversations, she works with executives, founders, political leaders, and legacy stewards whose decisions shape capital, culture, and policy—ensuring their leadership is deliberate, sovereign, and structurally sound.

She guides women to reclaim their self-worth, embrace their purpose, and RISE into embodied empowerment.  Tywanah is known for creating sacred spaces where women break free from survival mode, step into their divine authority, and ignite lasting personal and collective change.

She has held onto the quote:  "When we change the way we look at things, the things we look at change" ~Dr. Wayne W. Dyer
