Celeste is a certified massage therapist for 30 years mostly working with people who have been injured in some way. But before that she loved stories of all kinds beginning with the family movie nights instituted by the parents she shares with Lucinda. Celeste got hooked on reading in 7th grade.

Lucinda is a retired theatre instructor at the college level and teacher at the high school level. She was a late bloomer to becoming an avid reader. During her Senior year in high school, she fell in love with Classic British Literature. But the love of stories sustained both Celeste and Lucinda and taught them valuable lessons, as they explain in this fifth year anniversary of Story-Power.

Lisa is a dedicated creative professional committed to helping individuals uncover their soul purpose through therapeutic art practices. With a keen interest in the transformative power of color, she utilizes creative wellness to guide clients on their unique life paths. As an accomplished artist, Lisa passionately engages with her community, fostering connections that inspire creativity and personal growth. She studied wellness counseling at Cornell University in 2021. In the fall of 2024, she presented her Color Affirmation Method to educators in Minnesota at their fall conference, MNSAA (Minnesota Nonpublic School Accreditation Association) speaking on the impact of SEL through creativity. Her recent book, the Color Affirmation Workbook and Journal is the perfect partner to her Color Affirmation Deck, which reflects her expertise and enthusiasm in this field. Kindle has been asked to teach two classes at the Sea Cliff Arts Council in June of 2025 in Long Island, NY. She will also be co-hosting a women’s retreat where she will be teaching her method and leading a guided labyrinth event also in Long Island.

I wrote the book, the Color Affirmation Workbook (2024) and Journal and have published an inspirational product, the Color Affirmation Deck that combines color and affirmations to promote well-being and spark creativity.
