Brooke Marie Bridges is a keynote speaker, workshop facilitator, somatic CBT coach, vitalist herbalist, and author with Transatlantic Literary Agency. She is the founder of Unearthing Wellness and the creator of The Integrated Root™ — a Mind-Body-Earth framework built around a single premise: you can have all the insight in the world and still not know how to embody your life.

Her keynotes and workshops address the gap most wellness programming misses entirely — the space between understanding yourself and actually inhabiting yourself. Drawing on the neuroscience of the prefrontal cortex and amygdala, the emerging science of interoception, somatic CBT practice, and ancestral plant medicine traditions, she gives audiences not just new understanding but a genuinely different felt experience of themselves.

A former Nickelodeon child actress and SAG-AFTRA performer, Brooke spent her childhood learning to perform emotions professionally and her adult life learning the difference between performing wellness and actually embodying it. For four years she facilitated Uprooting Racism trainings with Soul Fire Farm. She has presented for Ellevate Network, Berkshire Community College, Berkshire County District Attorney's Office, Miss Porter's School, and more than 150 schools and organizations across North America.

Her signature keynote — From Awareness to Wellbeing: Why We Know More About Wellness Than Ever and Still Feel Burned Out — was described by Ellevate Network CEO Allyson McDonald as introducing concepts she had never heard framed that way before. Her six-workshop Changing the Response series and somatic DEI workshop Wired for Difference are available for organizational engagements.

Brooke presents virtually and in person across North America.

Tiara Jamison

Tiara Jamison is the Founder and CEO of AnnieGuard, a causal intelligence company focused on understanding the hidden systems that drive biological threats, disease, environmental risk, and complex human outcomes.

Her work centers on a simple but powerful idea: events do not happen randomly. Whether the outcome is a disease diagnosis, a public health crisis, an environmental disaster, or a system failure, there are underlying causes that can be reconstructed from the data that already exists.

Drawing on experience across Microsoft, Google, and Amazon, Tiara combines systems thinking, threat detection principles, artificial intelligence, and biological research to help organizations move beyond prediction and toward understanding why events happen.

After losing her mother, Annie, to sarcoma, Tiara founded AnnieGuard to challenge conventional approaches to disease detection and risk assessment. Today, her work explores how causal intelligence can be applied across healthcare, biological security, environmental systems, public safety, and critical infrastructure.

Tiara speaks on causal intelligence, biological and environmental threats, systems failure, healthcare innovation, artificial intelligence, entrepreneurship, resilience, and the future of decision-making in complex environments.
