ACT Founder, Linda Roebuck

October’s ACT gathering was a heartfelt celebration of our 25-year journey—and a beautiful exploration of what it means to lead from within. Guided by longtime members and founders, we revisited ACT’s inspired beginnings, when one woman’s vision blossomed into a circle of light that continues to expand and uplift today.

Through reflection, song, and small-group experiences, we explored circular leadership—the idea that every voice, every heart, and every act of love contributes to the whole. Participants shared dreams for ACT’s next 25 years: expanding our community, nurturing intergenerational connections, deepening healing work, and perhaps one day creating a physical home for this ever-growing circle.

The afternoon culminated in music and a moving channeled closing message honoring unity, transformation, and love in motion. The energy was vibrant, the vision bold, and the circle strong.

Join us for future gatherings as we continue this sacred journey—awakening hearts, expanding light, and shaping the next chapter of A Community of Transformation.

Our September session was a powerful beginning to ACT’s 25th anniversary year! We opened with grounding and centering practices that reminded us of our deep connection to the earth, spirit, and one another.

Founder of ACT, Linda Roebuck

Founder Linda Roebuck shared heartfelt reflections on ACT’s origins and growth—reminding us how one inspired vision blossomed into the vibrant community we celebrate today.

We were then blessed by the presence of Elohi Magdalena Rosa, a voice alchemist, author, and channel, whose profound teachings and transmission invited us to release old patterns, awaken our multi-dimensional hearts, and embody the template of grace. The experience was deeply moving—woven with sound, light, and love that words can barely capture.

We also welcomed our new Co-Creation Council, the guiding circle for this milestone year, and closed in gratitude with poetry reminding us to “marinate in love.”

A reflection from Vicki Fearey:

Dena at Work

Dena’s wise and gentle presentation on Sunday took me deeply into an experiential time of expanded energy.  Dena is a Shamanic Practitioner trained and formally initiated in the ancient Inca tradition of Saminchakuy and Saywachakuy. Her talk entitled, “Clearing your Energy Pathways,” did just that. After a short talk about energy explaining that every single thing is made up of energy and also covering high vibration energy, Sami and low vibration energy or heavy energy and how to send heavy energy down to Pachamama. After Dena touched upon the concept of the energy bubble we live in, she then led us into several meditations giving us the experience of expanding our energy bubble. I felt totally relaxed, expanded and lighter— like I had more Sami, as she called the highest vibration. We were all very gifted with Dena’s ability to help

us restore our natural flow of energy. She condensed so much wisdom and magic in 2 hours and, though I didn’t understand all of it, I left feeling lighter, expanded and more prepared for what she called the sacred reciprocity.

We came, we saw, we experienced! And it was awesome! We have a super talented group of business members who shared their healing powers and energy with the audience. To quote one of our regular attendees, “It was the best ACT event ever”.

We had a beautiful mix of healing music/vibrations, energy movement, energy clearing, energy information for healing the body, and messages from Spirit and beyond. Truly amazing. Each presentation built on the previous.

One of the overarching themes was that of transformation. As we become more present, connected with our intentions, and aligned with our purpose, we expand our possibilities and become co-creators in life. Thanks to the energy work, we left with open hearts and feeling inspired.

We wrapped up the event with delicious refreshments and time to talk with the speakers and fellowship with other attendees. Lovely!

We enjoyed an extra wonderful presentation by Kimberley Madden guiding us to understand our astrological birth chart and the impact of astrological events as we go through 2025. Spoiler alert, 2025 is a big year for change and transformation.

For the first half of the presentation, we each worked on completing worksheets to help us understand how the planets, stars, and astrological houses affect each of us personally, based on our astrological birth chart. It was very enlightening to learn the impact of our birth chart on our personality and how we experience life.

The second half of the presentation was about the many, many astrological events that are coming in 2025 and the impact each one will have on different zodiac signs. For each of us, we can use the information from self-discovery in part one, to prepare and embrace the astrological events for our own personal transformation.  One key message is that we are on the edge of a huge transformation that will affect institutions, change banking, and create a new way of life for the better eventually.

We also had the special treat of having Teporah share her wonderful music with us. We were grounded and centered with beautiful music that combined a singing bowl with the piano. We also heard a beautiful Hallelujah hymn that opened our hearts.

If you were unable to attend the gathering, the recording is available to all members. Definitely worth a listen!

Wow! We experienced a wonderful presentation by Dr. Carol Robbins, psychotherapist and relationship expert. She combined her clinical background with spiritual concepts to share wisdom and insights on how we can have a better relationship with ourselves and also with a partner or somebody we are close to.

Dr. Carol shared how in our early days, we first learn to survive by giving up parts of ourselves. Later, through challenges in life, we do inner work to reconnect to our divine brilliance that was present all along yet hidden by unconscious beliefs, patterns, and coping mechanisms. She shared many suggestions on techniques and methods that support doing this inner work. Dr. Carol wrapped up the presentation with some practical things that we can do to have a better relationship with our partner.

We were blessed with extra special music from the team of Sheri Owen, Dennis Kolb, and Chad Holmes. With the music, it was easy to feel at peace, feel loved, and feel connected with the Divine. Really lovely.

If you are an ACT member and were unable to attend, the program was excellent. I encourage you to get the recording and give it a listen. You’ll be glad you did.

We experienced a wonderful presentation by Atoussa Davis on the power of Biofield tuning forks to lift the vibrational frequency of our bodies. Atoussa led us in a beautiful guided meditation integrated with playing of the tuning forks. We also each got to experience the tuning forks applied to our bodies so that we could feel grounded and peaceful.

For the second half of the program, Atoussa described “Emotion Code” and how emotions can get trapped in our body and can also create a wall around our heart. Atoussa then did energy work — releasing emotions for the group as a whole. This was very helpful as we were just post-election.

At the end of the program, folks shared that they felt more peaceful, calm, and quiet.  What a blessing!

The program was recorded and is available to ACT members.

The heavens opened up and the angels sang. It was glorious day. Each step of the program took us to a place of more peace and the possibility of connecting with our personal guides.

Lila Shoshanna Rae led the program with a beautiful meditation so that we could be fully present.

Dr. Dena Deglau invoked the energies and spirit guides of the cardinal directions to create a sacred and protected space in the Andean Shamanic tradition.

Richard Bredeson led us in a lovely Qigong practice so that we could truly settle in, feel grounded and balanced.

Cheryl Pace then led us in a beautiful, guided mediation to the higher realms. We each had a different experience enjoying the magnitude, peace, and serenity of the Divine.

What a great way to kick off the New Year — igniting our internal light so that it shines even brighter. Very special and inspirational!

We had a fabulous time dressing up and enjoying holiday tea with old and new friends! Tables were filled with a lovely spread of savory and sweet treats. We also enjoyed delicious wassail and a curated selection of teas.

Lilia Shoshanna Rae opened the tea with a lovely centering meditation so we could each be fully present. Richard Bredeson shared a selection of poetry to inspire and uplift. We especially enjoyed getting to know each other on a deeper level with the discussion prompts at each table.

The finale to the festivities was an awarding of prizes for the best tea party outfits. It was fun honoring the creativity and the holiday spirit.

Truly a wonderful, delightful event! ACT has the best members and guests.

The October program was extraordinary! The heavens opened and we connected with beautiful, peaceful, healing energy for ourselves and for the planet.

Michele started us off with gentle chair yoga to align our energy bodies, get grounded and centered.

Linda and Debbie led the group in a powerful, deep meditation for peace. We each picked someone or someplace that we wanted to send Peace to. We wrapped up the meditation sending Love and Peace around the world.

There was a beautiful spirit of compassion and peace in the room and in our hearts. Very special!
