YOU R


GURU?


Why we’re seeking a guiding light
in turbulent times

Is your luminary Jess Magic, the musical storyteller who runs
invitation-only Soul Salons for the rich and famous? Or
Amanda Chantal Bacon, Moon Juice founder. Perhaps it’s
her more famous contemporary, Gwyneth Paltrow? Maybe
you visit the HairWitch when you’re in Brooklyn and get
a side of Sanskrit healing with your blow-dry? Do you follow
Instagram affirmation queen Cleo Wade? Progressive
pop-stars Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez? How about the
self-help author Gabrielle Bernstein, who says “the universe
has your back”? Or are you more into memoirist-turned-civil
rights spokesperson Glennon Doyle? Is your guru Oprah?
The woman you buy crystals from? Or is it someone so cool
and niche we haven’t even heard of them yet?
