In fact, the powerful devotion of Mary Magdalena and Master Jesus was what called her to enroll in the Magdalena Practitioner Program herself.

Julie Løddesøl
Asking questions and sharing reflections has always been Julie’s Løddesøl’s passion.

At University she majored in Theatre Science, with a Master’s thesis on Shakespeare. Since Oslo-based Julie learned to meditate in 1984, she has taught self-development courses, done Reiki, studied archetypes and the Enneagram. Curiosity also led Julie to study the mystery: Who is Mary Magdalena—today, in our time? How can we serve the Divine Feminine Magdalena Energies? Serving others is a deep passion for Julie, who sees Sai Maa’s goal of enlightenment for humanity as her own.

Liz Whatley earned her Masters in Social Work and has maintained a thriving clinical private practice for over 16 years. Earning certifications for working with trauma, she has supported hundreds of individuals to create freedom from past wounds. Through the Magdalena Practitioner Program, Liz awakened to the power of energy in healing. The balance of Divine Feminine and Masculine she encountered through this program gave her access to something she had always sensed missing from her work. The program has facilitated healing for herself and her clients. She also loves bringing the energies of Mary Magdalena into her home. Liz feels deeply grateful to have the teachings of Mary Magdalena and Her Holiness Sai Maa to assist her and her husband in educating three young boys.
