Who we Are...

Two professionals seeking answers to our most pressing questions....is that all there is??

Michael Sylvester

Legal philosopher, attorney, international counselor at law.  After 15 years practicing law in humanities' fastest growing city ever, Michael has a unique and fascinating view of the rapidly changing face of world economies, businesses and governments.  In the past, he predicted changes that are now being implemented in China as part of their strengthening economic might.  He also see's hope for the future with so many looking forward instead of dwelling on the past.

Dr. Sandra Schneider

As veterinarian with a passion for wildlife, Dr. Sandra loves her work and gladly poured heart and soul into it for the last 20 years. 

Unfortunately, like many of colleagues, she was not prepared for the profound mental and emotional challenges of working in the veterinary profession.   
Turns out that was just the beginning of the story. 

After experiencing catastrophic orthopedic injury, Sandra endured years of  misdiagnosis and opioid treatment, survived multiple brushes with death, until finally being diagnosed with Lupus in 2012. 

Unfortunately.  the western medicine she had studied and utilized in her work offered no answers.  In fact, every interaction with the medical establishment resulted in worsening symptoms.  There was no gentle hand to guide her along on this terrifying journey, only mistrust, misinformation and miscommunication. 

The journey that followed has lasted 15 years and circumnavigated the world several times.  During her travels, Dr. Sandra studied traditional healing modalities in multiple countries (Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese medicine, etc) , volunteered with multiple wildlife rescue organizations, and learned a lot about illness vs wellness.  All her experiences have also helped her better understand her own nature, the nature of man and of the cosmos.

Now,  seeking to embrace the gifts she has been given, Dr. Sandra shares what she has learned.  Her aim is to help people plagued by chronic pain and illness.  With the intention of spreading hope, joy and opportunity,  she continues to explore the world around her, learning to enjoy every day that she is blessed with here on this lonely planet. 

Only now a new the journey begins, aboard s/v Eos. 
Please stay tuned for updates on the adventure!
