Using his 10+ year career as a professor of gender, race, and human interactions, Jay Dubois, PhD (Anthropology, UC Riverside 2017) weaves together his knowledge of human societies with his passion for service, healing, and storytelling to deliver inspirational knowledge in the classroom and onstage. With over 20 years of experience as a shaman and working with Jesus as his primary guide and teacher, he combines his academic research experience and practical life skills to grow, guide, and execute the vision of Compassionate Transformation Community, a nonprofit dedicated to alleviating the mental health crisis in our society.

He loves to spend time strolling beaches and climbing mountains with his friends and family, and processing emotions with his partner and clients. Jay is the co-author of Unlocking Light, the vulnerable and inspiring story of 5 practitioners of healing and transformation for anyone looking for a way out of their suffering. Moreover, he is the founder of the Sacred Brotherhood men’s support circle in Southern California, which supports men in co-creating a more conscious and emotionally aware masculinity.
