About Jennifer

Jennifer was in a car accident in 2014 and it forever changed the trajectory of her life. She was hit hard from behind and the gas tank busted and there was gasoline on the asphalt. She got whiplash. At the time of the accident, she had enormous stress, bills to pay, debt, and she knew her spousal support coming to an end. She was single mom and a late bloomer. At the exact time of the accident, time stood still and stillness was something Jennifer was experiencing infrequently, then. Two doctors said she had moderate foraminal stenosis. One doctor said she should have no to little stress in order for her neck to heal. After the accident, she had severe pain in her neck whenever there was stress, whereas before the accident she didn’t have any physical pain in her neck when she had stress. That was the start of a journey of learning to live without stress. She had to learn how to manage her energy.

She was introduced to Heartmath, which offers technology for measuring HRV (Heart Rate Variability) and HRV is the gold standard for measuring stress. Testing her own stress levels with biofeedback and learning to breath a little slower and deeper and regulate her own emotions, lowered her stress levels. She was able to open herself to synchronize her heart and brain to open up to a higher cognitive function she didn’t have when she was stressed so often. She now teaches others how to connect to their hearts and shift to heart qualities such as appreciation, compassion and care, so others can also find solutions to problems that stress shut down when in survival mode. When people connect to the heart, we get along better.
Jennifer is a certificated Life Coach and a Gene Key Guide.

She has studied Spiritual Parenting and is a Certified Facilitator of the 17 and GraceLight and The Point of Essence Process from The Soul Center for Spiritual Healing – Spiritual Healing for Indigo Children and Adult Indigos.

About Memo Ozdogan

From his early twenties, Memo Ozdogan has had great passion and personal interest in exploring western and eastern spirituality and philosophy in order to see and understand different approaches towards the subject of living. He has delved into the original teachings of the Buddha, J.Krishnamurti, Rumi, Ancient Greek philosophy, Zen, The Tao, ancient forms of spirituality and new age spirituality.

After deeply studying all these various approaches, he tried to find out the original truth in each of these different approaches without becoming a static follower of any of them. He quotes: “life is a very dynamic and living thing which is ever-changing, and therefore no philosophy of the past can be applied directly to life which takes place only in the present moment. Philosophy or teachings might point out an important truth and much can be learned from them but one should never get stuck at any of them since life must be explored from moment to moment and that means one must continue one’s inner journey of discovery at this present moment. This is the only door opening to the path of true happiness and liberation”.

Having lived in Asia for a long time, he has had the unique opportunity to deeply explore eastern philosophies of living such as Zen.  After such a long term of study and exploration, recently, naturally and spontaneously he began sharing the outcome of such study with others in a book he authored named as “Letters from Love Cafe”, and by organizing some discussion groups and seminars for the exploration of subjects such as Love, Living in the Present, Meditation, Spiritual path, Fear, Self-Knowledge, Suffering, Loneliness, Happiness, Wisdom, Conscious Living, The Subconscious etc. ; basically subjects about life itself. He also established a platform called ‘Find Your Secret Key’ to serve this purpose, and for the healing of deeply rooted subconscious hurts through guided meditation and spiritual counselling. Memo also has deep knowledge about the subconscious and the subtle ways of its working.
