PAULINE DREWFS

Pauline has always been deeply curious about how humans communicate with each other, especially through tough conversations. She sees conflict as an ally and a potent mirror, providing infinite opportunity for growth and connection. This curiosity has led her to become a mediator and ultimately brought her to Authentic Relating. She now guides organizations and individuals through times of transformation, dedicated to facilitate meaningful and lasting change. Pauline lives, loves and dances in Berlin, Germany.

SHERI HAUSER

Sheri believes that the meaning of life is to find our gift, and our purpose is to give it away. After years of eagerly searching for her elusive “purpose”, it took a radical life shift that dismantled her foundation to discover who she is and why she’s here. Incorporating ART’s 5 practices into her life, brought her back home to herself. Sheri stands for radical self-expression and has long identified her values as integrity, camaraderie, creativity, and authenticity. She is a trained Conflict Resolution Mediator and volunteers with Realness Project in Colorado to bring Authentic Relating Leadership practices to inmates in prison. In her spare time, she amplifies the voices of other spiritual leaders and changemakers through her brand, Pink Noise. She recently moved back to Victoria, BC where she grew up, and speaks as a New Thought Minister at Victoria Truth Centre.

YANIV(NEEV) ROSE - HE/THEY

Yaniv has a big part that is struggling to write anything about himself. He has parts that really want whoever is reading this to feel them. And they’re afraid to be, at the same time, too much, and not enough.

As a trained IFS Practitioner, Yaniv practices welcoming all his parts. One of Yaniv’s biggest passions is to create help containers for humans to connect and express all of their parts. Their deepest being. To heal in community and help people supercharge their communication skills. And by proxy, their lives.

Yaniv is a free-bird. Currently baseless and traveling the world. With a mission to spread the tools of Authentic Relating and IFS to communities everywhere. He believes that adversity and conflict can be used as tools for deeper connection, and combined with awareness and integration of our parts, we can cultivate more and more of our inherent wholeness, and offer our unique gifts to a world in dire need for them.

Sophie Yates

Sophie is passionate about supporting people to connect with themselves and each other. Having grown up in a culture where mind takes precedence over body, she struggled with feelings of emptiness and disconnection. Today Sophie is a firm believer in the body’s inherent intelligence and envisions a future where relational skills are taught as an essential part of our upbringing.

Sophie takes particular interest in the normalised traumas of privilege, notably healing from whiteness and boarding school, and is curious about how patterns of domination and submission play out in our day-to-day lives and language, as well as the link between voice and sexuality. A certified holistic health coach and trainee of integrative psychotherapy and counselling, Sophie enjoys working with a variety of creative modes and media and is based in London, UK.

Arne

Since being a teenager Arne has been with questions like “What becomes possible when we dare to be ourselves with each other?” and “What does it take to navigate conflict well and let our togetherness be a celebration of life?” Over the years of exploring all kinds of practices his heart made a jump when he first stumbled upon Authentic Relating.

Now he’s passionately weaving it into the greater fabric of his life. He loves the aliveness and the ease that it brings and takes great joy in facilitating it for others.
For him it is a practice of freedom that complements his path as a lover of life, a connection weaver, an infinitely curious being, facilitator and educator.

Currently living in a tiny hamlet in northern Germany he enjoys a deep sense of belonging to the rich nature around his house, where he also offers a blend of nature-based life-coaching and Gestalt therapy.

Ash

Nomadic since 2017 with roots in Los Angeles, Ash utilizes cross-cultural and interdisciplinary influences to craft rich experiences for embodied expression and authentic connection. Years of dance intensives throughout the US, Mexico, Europe, Southeast Asia, and Israel influence Ash’s strong relationship to movement as a method for integration and embodiment.

Her formal education at UCLA awarded her a BA with honors in Fine Art and minor in Visual & Performing Art Education—but it is her commitment to continuously discovering what it means to be human and dedication to continued research in interpersonal communication, the psychology of we, The Power of Vulnerability, and Authentic Relating that has most impacted her life’s calling.

Ash’s offerings are designed to break social programming, welcome all parts of the self, and lift one another into realms of vulnerability, expanded empathy, attuned self-awareness, and unveiled identity—all in service of being with, and feeling more whole. She feels most “on purpose” when facilitating others into this deeper connection to self and other, in hopes that together, we may co-create a more supportive, integrated, and interconnected reality.
