Emily Harrison

Emily Harrison is renowned for mentoring visionaries, quantum thought-leaders, and entrepreneurs to access their Akashic Records and instantly download their records from Universal Intelligence so they can become masters in their field. Working within the niche of the Human Potential Movement (Expansion of Consciousness), Emily explains Akashic Record as "the realm of consciousness where all information exists, past, present, and future. It is the key humanity needs to uncover innovative, lasting solutions to all personal and global crises)."

She does this by taking her clients into vortex points on the planet where the piezoelectric energy assists in naturally reaching very high states of consciousness. This allows them to easily download very high level information, helping them personally heal from traumas, and access expanded vision for the betterment of themselves and humanity.

In 2019, Emily gave a keynote speech at Harvard University on the Akashic Record, receiving a standing ovation. Achieving this honor required her to do deep soul work and clearing her ancestral karma around rejection and not being good enough. Backstage, Emily couldn't help but observe her gratitude (and the irony) at being a college dropout speaking to the Harvard School of Education.

Taryn Watts

Taryn Watts is a professional certified coach and founder of The Mind Rebel™ Academy. During Taryn's decade-long coaching career as a coach, she developed the Mind Rebel™ Method as a way to gently but powerfully reach into the depths of a person's being, inviting them to rediscover the very essence of who they are.

Coaching has been Taryn's passion for over a decade. She completed her coach training while working full-time in a corporate job that she wasn't passionate about. The day she graduated from her training was the day she became a mother, and it was in that moment she knew she had finally found her two passions: motherhood and coaching. It wasn't until she went back to her corporate job after her last child was born, where the fire inside her to launch her coaching business grew.

Taryn shares "Coaching is not just something you do, it is someone you become. And to hold space for another to move beyond their limiting beliefs and old ways of being so that their deepest knowing may arrive in sessions, you have to be willing to do the same kind of inner work on yourself.".

The MRA's mission over the next several years is to raise the bar and break down barriers in the coaching industry - leading to greater levels of integrity in the profession and making coaching more accessible to those who are underrepresented in the industry.
