about the author
Andrea Adler is the founder of HolisticPR.com, a consulting firm specializing in a holistic/spiritual approach to marketing and publicity. Recognized as the “metaphysical marketer,” Andrea is an international speaker, workshop presenter, and the author of three books on Holistic Marketing: PR for The Holistic Healer, Creating an Abundant Practice, and The Science of Spiritual Marketing: Initiation into Magnetism. Pushing Upward is her breakout novel.
A recipient of the Axiom Business Book Award in 2008, and winner of the 2011–12 Los Angeles Book Festival Award for Pushing Upward, Andrea has been a speaker at several international conferences including Natural Awakenings Annual Conference, Mountain Biz, the American Holistic Medical Association, INATS (International New Age Trade Show), and Expo Ser in Mexico City with Deepak Chopra.
Andrea has written over 50 articles on holistic/spiritual marketing, translated in five languages, and has appeared on numerous radio and TV shows throughout the world. For 30 years she has supported small businesses, the holistic/therapeutic community, cultural creatives, and entrepreneurs in Europe, the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and Venezuela. Andrea has been a contributing writer for Body, Mind, Spirit; Massage; Living Natural; Massage Today; Akkadian Magazine; Spirituality & Health; Tathaastu; New Connexion; Sentient Times; Kripalu; Reiki International; Marketing Holístico (Mexico City); UNO MISMO (Buenos Aires); and Vida Alternativa (Venezuela).
Andrea has studied meditation for 30 years, living in ashrams and meditation centers in India, Paris, New York, and California. In her early twenties, Andrea was an actress both on and off Broadway. She was a member of Cafe La Mama and the improvisational group The Groundlings, and appeared in several TV shows. She also co-wrote and directed three videos at the American Film Institute.
As the founder of Professional Organizers in the early ’80s, Andrea coordinated, supervised, and expedited moves for the elite in New York City and created satellite offices to support her clients. Her unique concept was so visionary that New York magazine, the New York Times, and several moving magazines wrote about her business.
In the mid-’80s while a journalist for The Times Herald-Record, in upstate New York, Andrea was profoundly affected by three teen suicides that occurred at a local high school. In response, she wrote a grant and received funding from Senator Charles Cook to create the Off-Off Main Street Children’s Theater Company, dedicated to works by, for, and about teenagers and the challenges they face. The company ran successfully for eight years.
An actress, transformational speaker, author, savvy businesswoman, and ardent practitioner of meditation, Andrea integrates her gifts as she presents keynote lectures and her new workshop, “Pushing Upward: The Art of Living and Thriving.” This workshop combines her holistic (mind-body-spirit) approach to living with the principles and concepts from Pushing Upward. Known for the experiential nature of her work, Andrea dives into the heart of people’s passions and supports them to live their deepest desires so they thrive and push upward. Her dynamic, transformational presentation touches participants in ways that shift their lives dramatically.
Andrea lives in Santa Monica, California. Her son, Brian Adler, is a jazz composer and musician in New York City.
