From a young age, Booboo sensed he had lived many lives, yet growing up in Southern California amid gang culture, addiction, and trauma, he fell into the illusion of separateness. On November 14, 2009, following years of struggle with alcohol addiction, his identity dissolved in what he describes as a “glimpse of nirvana.” This experience awakened him to a deeper reality beyond his former self.   With 15 years of sobriety, Booboo has since experienced out-of-body phenomena, a shared-death encounter with his father, and several spiritual awakenings.

Dr. Mercadante knows first-hand how it feels to live without a clear spiritual identity. Born into an immigrant, working class, mixed ethnic, non-religious household in the rough urban environment of Newark, NJ, she experienced the uncertainty that comes from not having a spiritual home. She went through years of searching, travel, and exploration in her quest for a spiritual identity. In the process, she earned a Ph.D. in theology from Princeton, became ordained, and found a vocation in seminary teaching. She is dedicated to helping others find a spiritual identity that can allow their spirits to come home.
