We offer powerful, inter-faith based women’s stories that promote personal and collective explorations through heart, mind, body and soul towards honoring and respecting each other's and our own connection to creation.
Carol Fox Prescott is a celebrated actor, singer, director, master teacher, performance coach and author. She brings over 50 years of experience in professional theater to individuals of all walks of life, enabling breakthroughs in authenticity, personal growth, and creativity. Carol’s clients include professional actors, business leaders, clergy, doctors, artists and educators- anyone for whom presentation and self-discovery are essential to success.
She is renowned for her breath work techniques and helps people master “being at ease” in everyday life, while unleashing confidence and creativity. Carol helps individuals transform performance anxiety, in any setting, into free flowing insight and self-expression.
When she isn’t leading retreats and workshops around the world, Carol teaches classes and works privately with clients in the Mid-Hudson Valley and wherever they may be, on Zoom.
Her life long love of Judaism, Torah and Theater come together naturally and easily in her mind and heart as she takes true delight in exploring Biblical stories and characters, especially the women.
She is the author of "Breathing Awareness and Joy: An Approach to Acting for the 21st Century", "Some of These Days", a one-woman show, about vaudeville star Sophie Tucker, and "In The Voice of Our Mothers," a 90-minute, five character play taking us deep inside the lives of our biblical matriarchs.
Susan Rosen, Spiritual Director, Miriam's Well Organization, Inc.:
Susan Rosen is the founder and Spiritual Director of Miriam’s Well. She started the organization in 1999 and has since brought many interesting and renowned presenters to the Hudson Valley. Miriam’s Well currently facilitates monthly dream groups and sponsors various projects. Susan has raised 5 extraordinary children (all grown with children of their own) and has always been interested and curious about Judaism, mysticism, transpersonal psychology and humanity in general. She’s certified in Group Projective Dreamwork, Integrated Kabbalistic Healing, and Energy Healing.
She is co-producer and now co-editor of “In the Voice of Our Mothers” which started out as a theatrical event performed in various parts of the country and is now a Haggadah entitled, In the Voice of Our Mothers – a new way to tell the story of Passover. This has been a labor of love and continues to fill a void in a mostly patriarchal interpretation of the Hebrew Bible and Jewish stories. To Susan, “it is extremely important for our evolution as human beings to hear the voices of women and restore ourselves to full participants in the whole/holy world.”
