Cindy Tusa is a licensed esthetician, educator, former nurse, and founder of The White Magnolia Advanced Skincare Institute, where science meets soul and estheticians are trained to think deeper. With years of experience in the skincare industry, Cindy recognized that most skin issues are rarely just skin-deep—they often reflect inflammation, stress, gut health, and mindset. This insight inspired her to create The Integrative Esthetician, an advanced training program that blends biology, neuroscience, and energy awareness with practical, real-world esthetics education.

Known for her straight-shooting, compassionate teaching style—tempered with dry humor—Cindy empowers estheticians to move beyond quick fixes and truly understand what’s happening beneath the surface: inside the body, the brain, and the belief system. She is passionate about exploring the intersections of health, beauty, and human potential, helping professionals cultivate confidence, clarity, and thriving careers.

Cindy frequently speaks on topics such as:

• Transitioning out of mainstream esthetics and finding a deeper purpose in the industry

Christopher Dundy is the founder and CEO of Flagship LMS, a full-service Moodle hosting and administration company. With over 18 years in the e-learning industry, he has led the design and launch of more than 1,000 custom online training courses. A former U.S. Marine officer, Christopher brings a systems-driven, no-nonsense approach to business and training operations.

His mission is to help organizations stop wasting money on bloated in-house training departments.

Christopher frequently speaks on creating lean, strategic training teams that survive budget cuts, spotting bad LMS vendors, structuring LMS governance, and using training to drive measurable performance rather than just checking boxes.

Topics he often addresses include:

Stop building your training—start managing it

Why in-house instructional design is often a waste of money

The hidden costs of bad LMS vendors and how to spot them

What great LMS governance looks like and why it matters

From chaos to clarity: using checklists and Kaizen in training operations

Why your LMS should support the entire employee lifecycle

The real ROI of outsourcing: performance, not just savings

Common misconceptions organizations have about online training

Why authoring tools like Captivate and Storyline may be hurting your training—and what to use instead

Raúl T. Pereyra (RTP) is a first-generation Latino leader, coach, and the founder and CEO of RTP Learning.

Raised in East Los Angeles as the son of Mexican immigrants, Raúl overcame significant personal adversity — including a childhood in a home impacted by alcoholism — to transform his life’s challenges into a powerful foundation for purpose and leadership.

For over 25 years, he has worked across human resources, organizational development, diversity/equity/inclusion (DEI), and leadership training, helping nonprofit organizations, B-Corps, and socially conscious businesses build inclusive cultures and effective leadership.

Driven by his own journey of “post-traumatic growth,” he developed a coaching framework called The BAG We Carry™ — addressing the Beliefs, Assumptions, and Guardians (inner-critic, limiting beliefs, old coping patterns) that often hold leaders back. Through Behavior‑First Coaching™, he helps first-time Latina/Latino and BIPOC CEOs, founders, and executives unpack their inner barriers, build self-awareness, and lead with clarity, integrity, and belonging.

Raúl’s work extends beyond individual coaching — he partners with mission-driven organizations to deliver structured training, DEI consulting, and leadership development that drive lasting culture change, better retention, and enhanced engagement.

At the core of his mission: to transform what once felt like baggage into fuel for growth — helping leaders not just succeed in their roles, but lead with authenticity, purpose, and the confidence to belong boldly.
