Jerome Braggs

“Attune Yourself To Love”

Jerome Braggs is a highly gifted Medical Intuitive, award-winning poet, sacred story teller and author of “Only Feed Me Life”.  In 2004 Jerome was diagnosed with AIDS and Kidney Failure, and was given seven days to live. On his deathbed, he had a Near Death Experience, where from the Other Side he was shown the key to his healing and how to live a well and delicious life.  That message, “Come back home to your soul thru the practice of self-love,” launched his amazing multi-year journey. Today, Jerome uses his gifts to teach Spiritual Seekers dealing with illness and disease,  how to love themselves back to healing, wellness, and a wonderful life.

In his talk for Morning Star, Jerome will share what he learned after his miraculous Near-Death Experience about what love actually is. He will discuss why attuning ourselves to that love is our greatest medicine and the “secret” to manifesting the life we desire and deserve

Rev. Dr. Lora Coleman (Mother’s Day)  

“Mysticism and the Sacred Feminine: Maternal Love as a vessel of the Divine Emanation “

“We are all meant to be mothers of God – for God is always needing to be born.” Meister Eckhart

Rev. Dr. Lora Coleman is a lifelong seeker and practitioner of spiritual wisdom. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who practices from a psycho-spiritual perspective.  Rev. Dr. Lora is an ordained Interfaith Minister, soon to graduate from All Faith’s Seminary International with a Master’s degree in Divinity of Mysticism. With numerous certifications and over 30 years in private practice, she is a healer, a guide, a teacher and one who has explored many paths of Mysticism. Upon completion of this season of Seminary, she hopes to expand her outreach through workshops, spiritual companioning and writing on what it means to live as a modern day Mystic.

In her talk for Morning Star, Dr. Coleman will share how Mysticism does not define the Divine as male or female; therefore, the Sacred Feminine is not limited to women, but is a holy expression of Divine Love beyond gender – revealed through compassion, intuition, nurturing, creativity, wisdom, receptivity, and the power to sustain life.  These qualities live within us all, and this experiential session will invite us to reflect on how we may become vessels of that love and embody its healing presence in the world.

Ashley Coleman 

“Descending Into Life: The Spiritual Power of Embodiment”

Ashley Coleman, B.A. in Psychology, is an ordained Shamanic Minister, Shamanic Energy Medicine Practitioner, and Addiction Recovery Mentor. She brings a deeply integrative approach to her work, drawing from traditions including Buddhism, yoga philosophy, Christian mysticism, Taoism, and shamanism.

Through her teaching and practice, Ashley guides individuals to reconnect with the wisdom of the body—expanding self-awareness beyond the limits of the thinking mind and into lived, embodied experience.  She is the founder of Winged Alchemy LLC, where she offers live events, a podcast, and online teachings dedicated to healing, recovery, and transformation. Her work empowers others to turn pain into insight, purpose, and authentic inner strength. She is especially passionate about addiction recovery, emotional healing, trauma-informed spiritual growth, and embodiment as a path to wholeness.

Ashley teaches that true spirituality is not about escaping life, but fully inhabiting it. As she shares:  “Many have been taught that spirituality means rising above pain, body, emotion, and earthly life but true awakening is not escape—it is presence. It is descending fully into the body, into truth, into love, and into this sacred human life.”  At Morning Star, Ashley will share insights and practices to help us heal, awaken, and rediscover the sacred beauty of being fully human.

“Spirituality After Religious Trauma”

Brooke Larimor, LPC, is a therapist and community builder based in Norman, Oklahoma.  She specializes in helping individuals heal from religious trauma, and reclaim their sense of safety, belonging and self-trust.  Brooke has been able to develop a path forward for many who need to unlearn what was once unquestioned in their lives.  A compassionate, grounded, caring practitioner, Brooke believes healing from spiritual abuse is a deeply personal and yet profoundly communal experience.  She is also the founder of the Oklahoma Religious Trauma Network.

In her talk for Morning Star, Brooke will help us understand the meaning of “Spirituality After Religious Trauma.”  We will explore the process Brooke has developed to help individuals rebuild or release Spirituality outside of rigid systems.  At that point it becomes possible to move forward in a way that feels safe and true.
