Nina Cruz is a certified conscious parent coach/social worker whose mission is to support parents in building healthy connections with their children.

Parents who gain a new sense of awareness through inner transformation create a new blueprint for themselves and their children. This is why one of Nina’s greatest passions is to guide parents to do their own ‘inner work’ so their children can be free to live out their authentic destinies.
Certified as a conscious parenting coach, Nina integrates eastern mindfulness with western psychology in helping parents heal their ancestral legacies. Her expertise has allowed her to collaborate with experts around the globe.
“We have a new breed of children who are awakening the whole planet, and they are different.” – Nina

Upon his return to Canada he met his life partner Shera on an island in the west of Canada. Together they built a fairy-tale cedar “castle” which became Serenity by the Sea Retreat. For 26 years in a program called The Next Step, people facing a turning point in their lives could reconnect with their passion and empower themselves to restart their lives.
Chidakash and Shera also created Enter the Mystery offering spiritual journeys to Machu Picchu. For 18 years they guided travelers along the Inca Trail and into the “mysteries” both of the fabled Inca citadel and themselves.
Chidakash believes everybody comes with a unique gift, and strives to empower the people he meets to find their voice and express their creativity—so they can deliver that gift into a world that has been waiting for it.
“Don’t think that love ends just because someone has passed away.” – Chidakash
