Exclusive online mastermind, by application only.
A 3-month journey for 6 extraordinary women who have big dreams
and are ready for bold, aligned action.
EMPOWERED WOMEN'S SALON
Registration is now open for the May-August 2020 Program
You are brilliant but you can't see your own brilliance.
You have the best ideas but you think you need more training, skills, or experience before taking action.
You have so much to contribute at work, in your community, at your kids' school but you are afraid of making waves.
The time has come to change that. We can't wait any longer. We need to step up and show up in our magnificence.
This is a sacred group for women who want to live and serve big.
We'll move from confusion and procrastination to clarity and aligned action. We'll get to the heart of your mission and purpose, observing what's working and what's not in your career and personal life. We'll identify your desires, and find the path to get you there.
You will focus on one project to work on for three months, something that your heart is truly calling you to manifest at this time in your life. You'll receive a step-by-step process to overcome your fears, doubts, anxieties, stress, and worries. Take your biggest fears (fear of failure, success, of disappointing others, or of not being good enough) and turn them into fuel for authentic success. You will develop the confidence to achieve your goals. You will learn to look at your limiting beliefs, re-frame them, and adopt new habits so you can be wildly successful in all areas of your life.
It takes a few months to embrace and anchor this kind of transformation. Growth is a process, not an event. This is for women who are 100% committed to their success.
"If you want to go quickly, go alone. If you want to go far, go with a group." - African proverb

Some have been my clients and others have been my coaches and mentors. I know we can have it all. We do it together. Supporting each other on the journey.
By joining this exclusive group, you are giving yourself permission and support to manifest your desires in 2020. Imagine celebrating your outrageous success by the end of March 2020.
"You were born with potential.
You were born with goodness and trust.
You were born with ideals and dreams.
You were born with greatness.
You were born with wings.
You are not meant for crawling, so don’t.
You have wings.
Learn to use them and fly." - Rumi

Our Inside-Out Approach to Leadership and Employee Wellness
At Wellness of Leadership™ (WOL) we see leadership potential in everyone. Every individual plays a leadership role in some aspect of life. For instance, a parent is a leader and a teacher is a leader. Whether you hold an entry-level position with an organization or you are the CEO, the foundation of leadership is self-leadership.
How are you showing up as a leader in your own life? How are you taking care of yourself?
How are you nurturing your body? How do you handle stress?
Are you overwhelmed by worry and anxiety? Is it time for a mental detox? How are you managing your emotions?
Are you nurturing your soul?
How We Are Different
There are many employee wellness programs out there. The main concern is employee engagement. Employers spend money on these initiatives only to find out that employee participation is low. Incentives are used for motivation. Yes, they work short term, in the same manner that children immediately respond to rewards. The problem is that extrinsic motivation doesn’t lead to long-term behavior modification. And then another program needs to be offered while healthcare costs keep escalating. We hear your frustration.
Our Wellness of Leadership corporate wellness programs have been designed to produce long-lasting results. We leverage neuroscience and positive psychology to ignite intrinsic motivation for effective implementation. We work with your employees one-on-one and in-group format to get to the root of the problem. Behavior modification is a process, not an event. We address Primary Food (Relationships, Career, Finances, Creativity, Physical Activity, Mindfulness) as well as Secondary Food (what we eat and drink).
Our success is driven by our holistic approach to employee wellness on all levels: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual.
Would you like to have a vibrant company, pulsating with vitality and creativity? Wellness is directly linked with leadership success.
We’ll set up a time to discuss your top employee wellness concerns and how we can customize a plan to support your company in bringing in affordable and effective wellness solutions.
Benefits of Wellness Initiatives

Global rates of obesity, diabetes, and other chronic diseases are on the rise. Over 65% of Americans are overweight, and by 2020 it is estimated that half of all Americans will suffer from a preventable, chronic disease. The United States alone spends over $2.5 trillion every year on healthcare, with a large portion of that money coming from employers’ pockets for employee health insurance, medical leave, and sick days.
Chronic stress, poor dietary habits, and lack of exercise all significantly contribute to employee performance. Luckily, many of these costly, chronic ailments can be avoided with simple, preventative care for employees.

Staysea Sumner, LAc, PhD
After receiving her Bachelor’s degree from SUNY Buffalo, Dr. Staysea Sumner continued her studies at the University of Salamanca in Spain. Afterward, she relocated from her home in New York to Los Angeles where she pursued her degree in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine completing internships at both UCLA and Los Angeles Free Clinic.
In private practice since 2005, Dr. Sumner has attained practical experience in a variety of both physical and psychological disorders. Although she is well trained in several complementary therapies, her passion and expertise are in utilizing NET, (Neuro-Emotional Technique). After completing a PhD, with a dissertation analyzing the neuroplasticity of the brain, Dr. Sumner is compelled to help people change patterns of emotional overwhelm that often are found as the root cause of their pain or disease. She also utilizes Neurolink Integration System (NIS) to help reset the communication between the body and the nervous system as well as Nutritional Response Testing (NRT) to assess imbalances in an effort to support the organs and glands. These combinations get great results and support the patient on many levels. This work is life changing and the results you achieve are priceless!
Growing up with eclectic surroundings in New York, Dr. Sumner became familiar with multiple styles of connecting through meditation. Some forms provide ways to connect with one's self, others with the Universal Energy, and still others with nature. Fascinated with the parallels between them all, Dr. Sumner finds ways to help individuals to relate to various levels of their own spiritual journeys.
In 2014 Dr. Sumner completed an intensive course through the University of Arizona Center for Integrative Medicine. This program focused on healthy lifestyle choices and patient centered care. She is one of the top 42 graduates of this program, which was developed by the Center of Excellence at the University of Arizona College of Medicine. This center is considered a worldwide leader in integrative education, clinical care and research. The staff includes Dr. Andrew Weil, MD and Dr. Tierona Low Dog, among other esteemed medical doctors, professors and colleagues.
An inspired community leader and activist, Dr. Sumner is an advocate for Thermal Imaging and better solutions for health challenges. She intends to raise the standard of healthcare and treatment, providing tools and solutions people can apply immediately.
“It’s not only about learning and understanding what you need, there is also an element of remembering. Much of what we need is already inside our own blueprint. Remember, the body is a map. Learn to read it and it will tell you what you need to know.” She refers to both Western Medicine and Eastern Medicine while infusing practical philosophies and advanced theories. There is truly something for everyone.
