Elaina has excelled in an eclectic mix of projects including professional domination, gogo dancing, and her rave company, Synaptic LLC (2015-2020) in addition to her professional work doing predictive modeling as a Fellow of the Society of Actuaries.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">It was Elaina\u2019s relentless drive which convinced business coach and serial entrepreneur &#8220;Scott&#8221; to become her mentor in 2019. Their work together took the form of weekly emails which, combined with her writing to therapists, friends, and family, became the backbone of Elaina\u2019s recovery from PTSD.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">At the conclusion of her writing, Elaina accomplished her dream of traveling cross-country in the United States, solo, for 10 months.&nbsp;<span style=\"font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; background-color: var( --e-global-color-astglobalcolor2 );\">Elaina continues to live boldly and unapologetically in Denver, CO.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-8374c28\" data-id=\"8374c28\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-04f01a6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"04f01a6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1440\" height=\"2560\" src=\"https:\/\/are-you-alive.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/PXL_20220825_182918786-scaled.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-850\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/are-you-alive.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/PXL_20220825_182918786-scaled.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/are-you-alive.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/PXL_20220825_182918786-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/are-you-alive.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/PXL_20220825_182918786-576x1024.jpg 576w, https:\/\/are-you-alive.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/PXL_20220825_182918786-768x1365.jpg 768w, https:\/\/are-you-alive.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/PXL_20220825_182918786-864x1536.jpg 864w, https:\/\/are-you-alive.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/PXL_20220825_182918786-1152x2048.jpg 1152w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-3d942d38 elementor-section-content-middle elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"3d942d38\" data-element_type=\"section\" id=\"Contact\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;_ha_eqh_enable&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-7641633\" data-id=\"7641633\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-613c24e4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"613c24e4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Got questions? got offended?
