Kerry Kowalik

Kerry Kowalik is a mother, wife, and health and wellness connoisseur. Currently a yoga instructor and trauma-informed somatic coach. As a somatic coach, she believes transformational healing is 80% body-based work and 20% mindset work. Acknowledging the body as a source of wisdom and intelligence can lead to sustainable and profound transformation and healing. Kerry has led dozens of individuals through movement, breath, and mindfulness to a place of awareness, curiosity, compassion, and acceptance. Kerry is always learning and leading by example. She is the embodiment of her work.

It is important to take time out of our busy lives and decompress. Kerry gives us a wonderful opportunity to do just that through her somatic practice. Connecting back into our bodies and utilizing our breath work can help nourish our bodies and release pent-up tension. Somatic practices encompass a series of movement forms that can be drawn together through their shared focus on body awareness through reflection on movement habits, opening up movement capacity, and developing self-directed or personal movement styles.

Lanae Rhoads

At Mix Cosmetiques, we believe beauty is most meaningful when it is created with intention. For more than 18 years, founder and cosmetic chemist Lanae Rhoads has been helping women discover products that celebrate their individuality rather than asking them to fit into someone else's idea of beauty. Every custom formula is thoughtfully crafted using plant-based, skin-loving ingredients chosen to nourish both the body and the senses. From perfectly matched mineral foundations to personalized aromatherapy blends, each experience invites women to slow down, reconnect with themselves and others, and create something uniquely their own. Rooted in the belief that self-care should be both luxurious and healthy, Mix Cosmetiques combines the art of formulation with the healing traditions of botanicals, empowering every woman to leave with not only a beautiful product, but also a deeper appreciation for the rituals that help her feel grounded, confident, and authentically herself.
