Antoinette Lee Toscano, MBA | Executive Producer of WhitewaterTV on XOTV & Architect of the American Adventure Sports Club
My life is the story of great pain, suffering, tragedy, trauma, and resilience. Yet, somehow, with each experience that some might view as an adverse event, I managed to maintain happiness and even thrive. And at the center of my success is my deep connection to nature. bIncreasingly, outdoor recreation is becoming the pastime of six-figure income earners. Of course, every human has a right to nature. But we do not all have equal access to it. Read more>>

Samantha Silverman, LCSW | Owner/Clinical Director of Silver Linings Counseling
As a survivor of the 9/11 terrorist attacks and subsequent ear damage as a result, I am a survivor. NOT A VICTIM. In my work as a therapist, I notice that many of my clients identify as a victim of their trauma. Adopting a victim’s mentality not only hinders self -growth, but blockades future self-actualization. It is important for me to de-stigmatize that conception and provide psychoeducation on Post Traumatic Growth, which is the result of healing from one’s trauma. Read more>>

One of my goals is to lead people to remembering who they are. Throughout life, we are often driven to fit into worldly constructs that oppose who we were meant to be all the while slowly and steadily burying pieces of our authentic selves, which results in a loss of quality of life. Personal struggles and challenges contribute to us settling even further in losing touch with who we are, what we love, our purpose and our passion. My life and work awakens hidden joy, stimulates self-rediscovery, reveals the best version of each of us to ourselves and those around us, thus spreading an abundance of love that resonates throughout the world.
