An Interview with Natalia Mejandžieva
World Conscious Alliance (WCA) is a global platform uniting like-minded individuals, artists, and organizations with a shared mission: to transform the collective consciousness and create a benevolent world for all species. Through art, music, and humanitarian efforts, WCA aims to inspire people to live in harmony with the environment, fostering values like compassion, kindness, and love. Natalia Mendžijeva, a board member of WCA, joined us at the “Celebrate Life” festival to discuss the organization’s mission, the role of artists within it, and her journey with WCA.
The Awakening Times (TAT): Hello, Natalia, and welcome to the “Celebrate Life” festival. We’re so glad you could join us. To start, could you share a bit about the World Conscious Alliance, its vision, mission, and what you do as an organization?
Natalia Mejandžieva (N.M): Hello, Lea. Thank you for inviting me. I’m especially excited to be here because of the festival’s humanitarian purpose, and it’s great to see so many people sharing their authentic talents and connecting through a sense of humanity. WCA is a platform that brings together people and organizations with a shared goal of transforming collective consciousness. Our vision is to create a benevolent world for all species, promoting a lifestyle rooted in righteousness and goodness. As humans, we have a unique responsibility to live in harmony with our environment and ecosystem. WCA encourages living with compassion, kindness, and love, and we aim to inspire artists, actors, and anyone willing to share these values through their crafts.
TAT: That sounds inspiring! WCA is a global platform, but how do artists, musicians, and creatives benefit from joining the alliance?
N.M: WCA provides a space for artists to express their true authenticity while being part of a supportive community. They can connect, collaborate, and contribute to making the world a better place through their art. As a musician, I feel a sense of responsibility to ensure my music resonates with people positively. Instead of focusing on themes that evoke sadness or confusion, I can convey lessons from challenging experiences, offering something meaningful to listeners. Artists who join WCA benefit from this shared mission and the opportunity to grow within a like-minded community.
TAT: WCA also hosts festivals globally. Could you tell us more about the festivals and how members can get involved on both a local and global level?
N.M: So far, WCA has hosted several festivals, such as “Respect” in Dubrovnik, Croatia, the “Global Festival of The Arts” in Sedona, and the “Festival of the Arts for Peace” in Washington, D.C. All these events have had humanitarian goals. Anyone can join us, and we also have activities like WCA Jams, where people can host jam sessions in their hometowns. Through these sessions, they can connect with local communities and other artists. A personal experience I had at a WCA Jam session in Macedonia really taught me the importance of respect and compassion among musicians. These gatherings foster collaboration and understanding, and anyone is welcome to host a jam session in their city.
TAT: That’s amazing! And speaking of the festival, will you be leading any jam sessions here at “Celebrate Life”?
N.M: Yes! I’ve met so many wonderful people here who want to connect and share their talents. We have around five or six participants, and we’ll be experimenting with all sorts of instruments, even using cups and rocks to create new sounds. The energy has been incredible, and it’s beautiful to see so many people wanting to join and collaborate. There’s no expectation from anyone, just an open space for creativity and love to flow, which is what makes this experience so special.
TAT: You also mentioned conducting interviews under the WCA banner. Could you tell us more about those? What kinds of interviews have you done?
N.M: We’ve conducted interviews with artists, teachers, and individuals making a positive impact on the world, focusing on their humanity-driven work. For example, we interviewed a priest in Macedonia who shares his wisdom across different communities without limitations—his purpose is purely to give. We also spoke with young artists from a recent WCA Jam session, which was their first public performance. They were incredibly excited to share their music, and it was heart-warming to see how deeply they resonated with WCA’s values.
TAT: That sounds incredible. Does WCA also engage with other types of artists, like painters, performers, and sculptors? Are there plans for exhibitions or joint projects?
N.M: Absolutely! We’re planning future festivals that will include all types of artists—anyone who feels a calling to give back to Mother Earth. We also host live interviews on social media, allowing artists to promote their work and collaborate with others globally. Our website has a list of the artists and community members already involved, so anyone interested can check that out and join us.
TAT: Before we close, would you like to share a personal story about your connection to WCA? How has it helped you grow?
N.M band I’d been with for six years. I met Christopher, WCA’s president, and he invited me to collaborate on a project. I immediately connected with WCA’s values, and we began working together. Over time, I felt inspired to start composing my own music, writing lyrics, and eventually volunteering to help spread WCA’s message locally and beyond. This experience has been incredibly rewarding, and I’ve grown so much, both personally and artistically. Today, I’m proud to be a WCA board member, working to spread the message of compassion, kindness, and creativity to the world.
TAT: Thank you so much for sharing your story and insights, Natalia. WCA is making a real impact, both for the artists involved and the wider community.
N.M: Thank you for having me! It’s been a pleasure to be here and share the journey.
