Our plus points
Marie-Josée Arel is a best-selling author with 8 spiritual works and over 15,000 books sold in the French-speaking world. Two of her collections have also been translated into Polish. Her journey led her to live in a religious community in her twenties, where she studied the path of the great mystics. With a certificate in theology and communications, Marie-Josée continues her research into the psycho-spiritual development of human beings. A seasoned presenter, she has a gift for touching hearts and making spirituality accessible to all.
From an early age, Nancy Marcoux was immersed in a mystical universe that led her to numerous spiritual experiences and ancestral initiations. She holds a Master’s degree in Social Work, a DESS in Management and has been an ICF International Coach for over 30 years, combining science, psychology, spirituality and shamanism in her coaching. Nancy has built a solid international reputation for her interventions, thanks to her uncanny ability to reveal to the conscious mind what the unconscious is trying to express, thus bringing about real mystical transformations.
