Author Tess Whitehurst
Tess has been interested in all things magical since childhood. Her parents remember the way she casually referred to the different colors around people’s heads and shoulders, and at preschool age, her backyard activities included intuitively performed nature rituals and speaking with faeries.
For more than a decade, she has helped thousands through her books, articles, live workshops, and online classes. She co-hosts the Magic Monday Podcast and teaches magical and intuitive arts via her online community and learning hub, The Good Vibe Tribe Online School of Magical Arts.
An award-winning author, feng shui consultant, and intuitive counselor, Tess presents ancient, sacred, and empowering wisdom in a friendly, joyful, and accessible way. Her work is focused on inspiring wonder, courage, confidence, and a positive life momentum.
In addition to creating the Magic of Flowers Oracle and cocreating the Cosmic Dancer Oracle, she’s written nine books that have been translated into eighteen languages. Her articles have appeared in places such as Writer’s Digest, Spirit and Destiny, and Llewellyn’s Magical Almanac.
Tess’s books include Magical Housekeeping, The Good Energy Book, The Art of Bliss, The Magic of Flowers, Holistic Energy Magic, Magical Fashionista, You Are Magical, and Unicorn Magic. She’s appeared on morning news shows on both Fox and NBC, and her feng shui work was featured on the Bravo TV show Flipping Out.
Tess lives in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado with her long-time boyfriend and one extremely fabulous black cat.

“As a child I wanted to stay home to draw, paint, write stories and create. As an adult, I’m blessed to be able to do that every day!” — Laila Savolainen
Laila’s days and dreams are filled with magic. Angels, spirits and beings from the Inbetween inspire her to create art that is intuitive, open-hearted, and full of grace.
On her journey, she has been a student and teacher of art therapy and counselling, energy healing, shamanic works, and oracle readings. In her 30 years as a creative, Laila has worked behind the scenes of Australia’s theatre industry; and run her own business, sculpting and painting for commercial clients. She also lectured at the Centre for Performing Arts, where she discovered her love for teaching and inspiring others to follow their soul passions.
Laila’s work has appeared in journals, books, oracle decks, and more. Her paintings and drawings have been exhibited in galleries around the world and she has entered and won several prestigious art prizes, including the Portia Geach Portrait Prize, People’s Choice Award.
Laila continues to straddle the corporeal world and the magical in-between in her art. Every breath she takes and every choice she makes carries the seeds of creation.
