Your Hosts and Presentors:

Debbie Ross, founder of Womens Travel Network has been providing travel services for over 25 years. With this experience she has realized the need for women to have an opportunity to travel without the single supplements or hassle of finding a travel partner. As a woman, wife, mother, daughter and sister she understands women's travel needs. In our hectic world of family and work life it is not always possible to coordinate travel with a companion. Out of a need of her own to find a group or organization catering to women with the same travel desires, Womens Travel Network was created. In doing so she has created unique trips catering to the needs of women. From weekend getaways to New York or Chicago, cultural trips to Italy or France and now Spiritual Weekends focusing on relaxation and self improvement.

Janis Taylor is both a psychic and a medium that offers one on one private consultations and public message work as well as teach meditation courses at the York Board of Education. Janis' spiritual journey began after she lost her mother in 1983 and realized she could have an ongoing dialogue with her even though she had passed. This connection to the other side grew even stronger when she lost her dad in 1994 and her sister in 2006. Eager to understand more, she began to study psychic phenomenon under the careful guidance of renowned author and spiritualist, Carolyn Molnar.

Janis has continued her studies and has completed Psychic Development, Levels 1 and 2, Workshops and Seminars at the Lily Dale Assembly (the world's largest centre for spiritual development). She is currently working towards Mediumship Certification.

Janis is able to intuitively link with both physical beings on this earth plane and those who have passed on to other dimensions by using her clairvoyance, clairaudience and clairsentience senses.

Janis will be available for private readings as well as conducting public medium message work to the group.
