Ruslana Remennikova, past owner of  wellness-focused smoothie cafe, Pulp on Lakeside, is starting a free weekly guided meditation series in October and offering a writing seminar called Stepping Into Your Divinity at The Beet at Ellwood Thompson’s in mid-October.

She states, “My current efforts involve writing my first book about healing with the masculine and feminine, making short films and interviewing people for my podcast, Fire & Heart, and my monthly publication, The Loveletter. Fire & Heart and The Loveletter spotlight members of society that are dynamically impacting our world through holistic approaches.”

Remennikova also crafts natural products such as candles, incense, teas, steaming herbs and women’s health elixirs, and is involved in creating the Martin Luther King Jr. Urban Agricultural Center, sponsored by The Pocahontas Project, Virginia Free Farm and Richmond Public Schools.
