Group Description: The intent of this group is to bring together mental and healthcare professionals at local, national, and international levels, much like other IANDS sharing groups. This gathering will operate as a monthly platform for sharing experiences and will serve as an educational forum, featuring guest speakers, limited series workshops, and online courses primarily focused on introducing concepts of emotional and spiritual intelligence. These sessions will also emphasize the importance of physical and mental health for overall well-being. There will be monthly themed topics and medical research center papers shared. From time to time, the 
IANDS Healthcare Professionals Group will host speakers.

About the Facilitator:
Following Dr. Keyaunoosh Kassauei’s studies as an International Medical Graduate (IMG) and completing a Postdoctoral Research Fellowship at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, her trajectory shifted gradually after her own Near Death Experience (2006) toward coaching in healthcare and leadership. Recognizing this movement as her calling, Dr. Kassauei established a 501C3 non-profit dedicated to serving the community, particularly in healthcare, education, and leadership.
As the founder of “My Conscious Coaching,”
a non-profit, and active 
fellow at the Institute of Coaching at Harvard/McLean Hospital—a research-focused coaching institute, she generously continues to support and mentor other professionals in the healthcare field.
Keyaunoosh has extended invitations to esteemed IANDS leaders, pioneers, distinguished healthcare leaders, coaching authorities, and worldwide speakers to feature on her podcast. The focus revolves around vital topics crucial to humanity’s progress and the evolution of consciousness in life and leadership. These podcast discussions encompass NDEs and various spiritual transformational experiences, aiming to equip coaches, healthcare professionals, educators, and leaders with essential insights and skills. Her goal is to enhance the quality of care and foster individual and organizational growth within the medical community as a unified whole.
Notably, Keyaunoosh volunteers as a 
certified facilitator and moderator for IANDS Groups & Events sharing groups. Additionally, she has contributed to and served the IANDS community as a Speaker/Panelist at the IANDS 2023 conference in Washington DC, and contributed her gifts in the Reiki program within the healing conversation and talk room.
