Meet the Writers of the Sacred Business Collective - Part 1
When conscious entrepreneurs come together, magic happens.
Something beautiful unfolds when you gather people who understand that business and spirituality aren't separate forces competing for your attention. They're partners in the same dance - one that creates sustainable success while honoring your soul's deepest calling.
That's exactly what we've discovered in building The Sacred Business Collective. What started as a simple idea - that everything is connected - has grown into a community of writers, creators, and entrepreneurs who are redefining what it means to build a business with both heart and strategy.
Today, I want you to meet five of the extraordinary humans who contribute their wisdom, stories, and insights to our growing movement. These aren't just writers sharing business tips. These are practitioners who've learned to bridge the inner work of personal transformation with the outer work of building something meaningful in the world.
The Creative Visionary: Ali Walton
brings a unique perspective to our collective as both a motion graphics artist and digital product designer. While many see technology as cold and disconnected, Ali creates animations that spark joy and mobile apps that inspire people toward their greatest good.From her home in Maryland, where she balances life with her husband, two boys, and a sweet old pup named Liza, Ali writes about what she calls "beautiful beginnings." Through her Substack, Fledge Together, she explores the practical question we all face: How do you go from that initial spark of inspiration to the daily discipline that creates lasting change?
The Transformation Strategist: Tylney Taylor
explores the intersection of business strategy, personal depth, and what he calls "care for the unseen." As both a strategist and coach, he works at what he describes as "the edge of transformation" - that space where real change happens.Through his Substack Bold Transforms, Tylney writes about what it means to live, lead, and serve with complete integrity. His background in strategy gives him a practical foundation, but his focus on "the unseen" acknowledges the spiritual dimensions that most business advice ignores.
Tylney's writing often addresses the questions that keep conscious entrepreneurs awake at night: How do you stay true to your values while scaling your business? How do you serve others without losing yourself? How do you navigate the tension between ambition and authenticity?
His piece "Caretakers, In Service To" reflects his belief that true leadership is about stewardship - caring for the people, principles, and purposes that matter most. Tylney understands that sustainable success requires attending to both the visible metrics and the invisible foundations that support long-term growth.
The Learning Accelerator: Juan Gonzalez
In our rapidly changing world,
has cracked the code on something every entrepreneur needs: how to learn anything fast and get real results. Through his SubstackSupercharged Learning HQ, he helps knowledge workers and online professionals develop both the skills and mindset needed to thrive in constant change.What sets Juan apart is his focus on practical application. He doesn't just share learning theories - he provides specific strategies for taking new knowledge and turning it into tangible business results. His writing combines cognitive science with real-world testing to show readers how to accelerate their growth curve.
The Sacred Intimacy Guide: Diane Lane
brings a rare combination of healing wisdom and business insight to our collective. After decades as Sarasota's award-winning massage therapist, she followed her heart to southern France, and is now buildingL'Art of Romance- a series of couples retreats, writings, and embodied practices devoted to rekindling relationships.Through her Substack of the same name, Diane helps others rediscover what she calls "the tenderness that breathes life back into romance." But her work extends far beyond romantic relationships - it's about reclaiming the sensual, connected way of being that makes all of life more alive.
The Conscious Leadership Coach: Kristoffer Carter
brings Fortune 500 leadership experience into the sacred business conversation through his unique approach to what he calls "epic leadership." As the author ofPermission to Glow - A Spiritual Guide to Epic Leadership, he coaches C-Level executives while serving on the Board of Directors of Yoga Alliance.His work has been featured in Men's Health, Fast Company, and Good Morning Washington, but what makes KC special is his integration of ancient wisdom with modern leadership challenges. Through his study and service of Paramahansa Yogananda's work, he brings the timeless principles of Autobiography of a Yogi into contemporary business contexts.
KC's Substack, Permission to Chill, reflects his understanding that sustainable high performance requires both intense focus and deep restoration. He helps leaders understand that giving yourself permission to slow down, connect with your inner wisdom, and operate from a place of genuine service isn't just good for your soul - it's good for your bottom line.
What sets KC apart is his ability to speak the language of corporate success while never losing sight of the spiritual principles that create lasting fulfillment. He shows leaders how to achieve extraordinary results while maintaining their humanity, integrity, and connection to something greater than themselves.
What strikes me most about these five writers is their shared understanding that sustainable success requires both inner alignment and outer strategy. They're not choosing between spiritual growth and business success - they're showing us how to integrate both.
Each brings their unique expertise and life experience, but they all share a common thread: the recognition that everything truly is connected. Your business challenges aren't separate from your personal growth. Your success isn't separate from your service. Your strategy isn't separate from your soul.
Ali shows us how to bridge inspiration and implementation. Tylney reveals the invisible foundations of transformation. Juan accelerates our capacity for growth and adaptation. Diane reconnects us with the sensual aliveness that fuels authentic success. KC demonstrates how spiritual principles create better business results.
This is what makes the Sacred Business Collective different. We're not just sharing business tips or spiritual platitudes. We're building a community of practitioners who understand that the work of building a conscious business is the work of becoming fully ourselves.
