About Me

Building Connections

Speaking and Workshops

Building Connections

 

As a 14-year-old Olympic Bound Athlete, the adults entrusted with my training, groomed and trafficked me into silence, causing the most exciting time of my life to be filled with shame and guilt while I still went on to win gold medals at the Norway and Danish Cups. 

Through my experiences I developed the Predatory Grooming Trifecta© which demonstrates how the predator grooms the organization first, the parents second, and then the child, which allows the predator to go undetected for years. 

After publishing my books, Surface Tension and Cracked Surface, I dedicate myself to bringing my message to conferences around the world. Whether as a keynote speaker or a workshop leader, I break through the myths and boundaries of Predatory Grooming, Long-term Effects of Sexual Abuse, and Surviving. .

 They say when the student is ready the teacher will appear. I had no idea that when I stumbled across a video of John Michael Lander on my Facebook feed that that was nothing short of a divine orchestration. As soon as we spoke on our initial discovery conversation, I knew I needed to work with him. I’ve always been clear about what I want to achieve but working with John Michael has helped me find the words and syntax to elevate my goals to a vibration that resonates deep within my core and makes them achievable. I could not have made that connection on my own. He introduced me to the Self Talk app. At first, I thought I’d be overwhelmed with the work. But he helped me implement listening to the app, writing and reading my goals in way that feels inspiring and not energetically draining. These have all become part of my daily ritual and have helped me to stay clear, focused on moving forward in the direction of my goals. John Michael is one of the kindest, nurturing, supportive, motivating, and special people I have ever met. His dedication to helping and believing in me is something that I will always value and appreciate. I'm in awe of him as a human being as he has so much to offer. His words in every session leave me feeling motivated, inspired and gives me the guiding force I need to have the confidence that my goals are achievable and in fact have already been achieved. I have had to face old programs and knowing that they are being released with new ones with John-Michael’s help means more to me than he will ever know. He makes me want to be a better human being.

Having someone believe in you, see you and champions for you in every way makes all the difference.

Thank you John-Michael.
Warmly,

Farhan, Canada

Lily Sanders Tese- {Author, Screenwriter, Podcaster} 

Lily’s journey into professional writing began with her award-winning book, 'Truth to Triumph'. Springboarding into major media TV, she was featured on ABC-NY Eyewitness News, Newsmax, FOX, CBS, NBC, iHeart Radio, and more… myth-busting the common beliefs about domestic violence. She considers ABC's Bill Ritter a respected mentor. 

But today, Lily is paving her way as a film and TV writer, creating entertainment that awakens hearts and evokes loving, social change. Her newest drama pilot for TV is already winning awards and is currently under consideration. Lily is dedicated to creating entertainment that brings real and raw stories that can speak the truth in love, without sacrificing honesty and peace. 

Lily is excited to share the pre-launch of her new podcast, “Up Until Now,” which will reflect testimonies that can speak truth into people’s lives.

 In this episode on Beyond the Current Situation, Lily Sanders talks with her recurring guest, John-Michael Lander. This is essentially peeking into a chat between two friends who come together with no intentions and wind up creating powerful insight that brings you back to love.   With unveiling ease, they roll out talks of passion, purpose, and truth as if it were the fragrance of rose whose pedals we have forgotten to smell.   You will experience an organic conversation that delights in positive reframing and insights. Balanced by what your "thinking mind" tells you, and what you innately know, choosing conscious presence will guide you back to your truth. Lily and John-Michael express this in their own unique ways that come together like a symphony.   A little about Lily's guest: John-Michael Lander a Voice for the Voiceless and the founder of "An Athlete’s Silence". As an athlete, he silently endured sexual abuse and trafficking from the adults entrusted with this training while winning gold medals at the Norway and Danish Cups. He broke his silence with the TedTalk, “An Athlete’s Silence”.  He has appeared on ABC, CBS, NBC, CBC news, been interviewed for the TIME and for the George Clooney Productions Company. He has two novels, Surface Tension and Cracked Surface.
