Ben has always felt a strong desire to be of service in the world. For years, he channelled it through work with NGOs, the United Nations and academia.

His years in West Africa, followed by teaching ethics at university, gradually made him question the egos of institutions committed to changing the world. He came to suspect that even well-intentioned efforts to dismantle the master's house can end up merely rearranging its relations of power — sometimes leaving the house stronger than before.

So he began exploring other ways of understanding and changing ourselves and the world. He spent seven years studying shamanism, becoming particularly fascinated by knot-solving magic and developing a deep connection with the Grigna, the mountain he considers sacred.

He also trained in psychedelic facilitation and integration, particularly in approaches to supporting people through difficult experiences. More recently, he has been studying structured constellations and breathwork.

Lorena is fascinated by identity and existence: who we are, what shapes our choices, and how we find our place in the universe. Her curiosity moves between the individual and the collective, the self and the social forces that shape our lives.

She studied political science, gender, and behavioural and decision sciences, and worked with international organisations and academia. Over time, however, she began questioning whether these institutions could address the deeper patterns that shape us: the identities we construct and the behaviours we unconsciously repeat.

Her curiosity eventually turned towards astrology and tarot, which she explores as symbolic languages for reflection and self-understanding. She works with archetypes, particularly Chiron, the wounded healer, whose story suggests that our deepest wounds may become sources of wisdom and compassion — and that transforming ourselves can be part of transforming the world.
