Elizabeth April
As a child, I was able to see ghosts and spirits, energies, auras, and even feel other people’s thoughts and emotions. I had a deep understanding of how vibrational frequencies affected me and others. But being raised in a Catholic family, accepting these abilities was difficult. The kids at school didn’t help. They made fun of me when I told them I was talking to things they couldn’t see. I was told that I was lying about what I was seeing to get attention – I still hear this, from people, even to this day. It wasn’t easy to be a young person with these poorly understood abilities. I was too sensitive to everyone’s energy and was unable to go out to restaurants and other crowded environments. Confusion from my Catholic upbringing and feeling out of place in this world combined to create a deep depression and anxiety. So at 10 years of age, I shut off my abilities. I devoted myself to sports. Since I became very good at any sport I tried, I ended up gaining acceptance. At 16, I began to question everything in my physical reality. Nothing made sense. I was extremely depressed and began seeking help. I went to see councilors, psychiatrists, asked teachers and parents, and even tried to find answers to my questions through religion. Yet nothing could give me the answers I was seeking. I mean, it’s kind of tough looking for answers when you don’t even know what you’re asking for! I knew something was still missing. This led me to my first past life regression. During this regression, I discovered I had lived many different lifetimes. In some lives, I was a monk. In others, I was a healer, a philosopher, or an oracle. Some lifetimes were difficult. I had been persecuted and enslaved. The storm of emotions that followed this regression helped me see I was so much more than who I thought I was. More than who society taught me I was. Thanks to this past life work, I started waking up. I began to finally receive the validation that there was so much more out there, and so much more within me. At the age of 18 I was consciously abducted by aliens. Yup, that's right, I said it… Aliens! Up until that point, I had never really considered the existence of aliens. After all, it didn’t seem that relevant to my life here on earth. Sure, I figured there was something more out there…I just didn’t think I’d come face to face with them! After the abduction, I first had to come to terms with the fact that “holy fuck, aliens actually do exist.” Then I had to accept through my own experience that not only do they exist, but they are here on Earth! Finally, through some vivid flashbacks, I began to recall myself as one of these alien beings. I finally broke through the last veil of this reality. I had to accept myself, once and for all, as one of these inter-dimensional beings. This newfound knowledge somehow reawakened my DNA. My psychic and clairvoyant/channeling abilities came back in extremes. I started astral traveling, lucid dreaming, reading minds and talking to interdimensional beings in my bedroom. This life, for me, would never be the same. My abduction was terrifying. Yet I give thanks for it daily, as it led me here today. Since then I have made it my mission to help others in awakening themselves to the infinite possibilities. I’m a cosmic channeller, public speaker, spiritual influencer and a celebrated artist. I have experienced the vibrational frequencies of truth and do the necessary karma of spreading it. I have never been so happy, fulfilled and excited for the future as I am right now. I am truly living my authentic truth and I intend to teach people how they can get here too. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Dr. Garry Nolan
I am the Rachford and Carlota A. Harris Professor in the Department of Pathology at Stanford University School of Medicine. I trained with Leonard Herzenberg (for my Ph.D.) and Nobelist Dr. David Baltimore (for postdoctoral work for the first cloning/characterization of NF-kB p65/RelA and the development of 293T rapid retroviral production systems). I have published 307 peer-reviewed research papers, hold 40 US patents, and have been honored as one of the top 25 inventors at Stanford University.I am well known for my ability to bring novel technologies to commercial fruition. My contributions to the implementation of mass cytometry (CyTOF) and its use for immuno-oncology research are a case in point, winning Nature’s “Outstanding Research Achievement” for 2011. My current research is focused on the development of multiparameter, single-cell tissue imaging technologies and computational approaches for systems immuno-oncology. Two recent innovations from my lab include multiplexed ion beam imaging (MIBI) and CO-Detection by indEXing (CODEX), which allow for simultaneous spatial quantification of 50+ parameters in a single tissue section. Another focus of my lab is the development and utilization of machine learning algorithms to interpret the large, high-dimensional datasets produced by CyTOF, multiplexed ion beam imaging (MIBI), and CODEX. Collectively, our efforts are to provide a deeper understanding of normal and impaired immune function - including detailed substructures of the immune system as it relates to various cancerous states - to enable wholly new understandings that lead to improved clinical outcomes. Additionally, I am dedicated to teaching and mentoring. I am currently mentoring 9 postdoctoral fellows and 5 graduate students, and I have taught multiple courses at Stanford and through NIH-sponsored programs. I have assisted students and colleagues in commercializing technologies via eight companies with a sum estimated present market capitalization of $800 million.
