Cathy Feinauer

Energy/Sound Healing Practitioner, Life Coach / Wellness Advocate

Cathy's wellness journey began over a decade ago. Having grown up with a traditional Christian background, she began to question the teachings and interpretations of holy writings she had been taught her entire life. Through self-study she developed the feeling that she was being called to do something more and began seeking her truth. That path led her to White Dove to learn and to heal. She is a Wellness Advocate, Life Coach, and healing practitioner.

Cathy spent 20 years in mortgage lending owning a mortgage lending company in Blue Ash for several years. She counseled clients in strategies to maximize their financial resources to achieve long term stability and security while raising her three children as a single mother. Currently Cathy is mostly retired but supports her husband in his business maintaining their website and handling marketing.

Cathy is honored to share her knowledge and gifts to help others find their paths to peace and happiness.

Jenny Henderson

Yoga Instructor, Owner/Essential Yoga & Wellness

Jenny’s yoga journey began 15 years ago during a very stressful time full of turmoil and change. Finding yoga brought peace and light when it was needed most. Since then she has attended hundreds of hours of workshops all over the Midwest, practicing privately and in studio classes to refine her practice. In 2020, Jenny decided to formally further her study at Indigo Yoga’s 9 month teacher training program leading ultimately to registration with the Yoga Alliance.

Her goal at the time was not to teach, just to learn. As Jenny progressed through training, the desire to bring yoga to her friends sparked and grew. Jenny mixes in a little laughter and fun into her classes while helping her students cultivate strength and awareness. Alignment and balance, both physical and mental, are the foundation of her practice and her teaching. Jenny lives in Springboro with her delightfully spirited yogi daughter and their two blue heelers.
