My journey began in Silicon Valley, where I worked asan HR leader alongside visionary CEOs, advocating for the value people bring toorganizations. I infused my work with what spoke to my heart:volunteer efforts,community events, and championing causes like walk-a-thons, food drives, andwomen's shelters. Yet, something was missing. I was tired of having to explainwhat seemed so obvious to me: treat people well and do something meaningfulwith personality and grace.It became clear that the excitement of building somethingfrom the ground up was what I truly enjoyed, and it was time to do that formyself. After extensive travel and exploration, my experiences, particularly inCroatia, left a lasting impression. This connection inspired the creation of mylip color collection, Keca's Usna.I had tried various brands but found my favorites eithersticky or short-lasting, while my go-to long-lasting lipstick left my lips dry.I wanted it all: a formula that was long-lasting, non-drying, and felt good.Keca's Usna is a tribute to my heritage and journey, where each shade tells astory, celebrating diversity and connection while embodying the values I holddear.**WE ARE ALSO ON AUDIOAUDIO “Conversations with Calvin; WE the SpecIEs”ANCHOR https://lnkd.in/g4jcUPqSPOTIFY https://lnkd.in/ghuMFeCAPPLE PODCASTSBREAKER https://lnkd.in/g62StzJGOOGLE PODCASTS https://lnkd.in/gpd3XfMPOCKET CASTS https://pca.st/bmjmzaitRADIO PUBLIC https://lnkd.in/gxueFZw

He is brilliant,passionate, and so dedicated. You should partake. Every fifteen minutes, thereis a change. Yes, I'm dramatic.

I cloistered myself in an American yoga ashram (monastery), where Ibegan the formal training of my spiritual learning. After learning simple yetprofound truths that I could not have discovered in the broader society, I leftthe ashram to learn simpler yet profound truths that I could not have learnedthere. I was fortunate to get a job as a resident host in abeautiful YMCA camp at the very lake where the lightning had struck my tentseven years earlier. I followed my path as a music teacher, trumpet player, andcomposer, and while conducting a symphonic work of mine, met my future wife,who was a clarinetist; we married eleven months later. I was hired to teachmusic and yoga at a school for emotionally disturbed children a few miles fromthe YMCA camp and began to teach evening yoga and meditation classes there aswell. My adult yogastudents and I then established the American Yoga Conservatory to teach yoga ona deeper level, free from external Indian cultural trappings. In December 1984,my wife and I learned that we were expecting a child. The Conservatory lost itslease, and I had my first channeled reading by the entity Hemetro, who laterwould reveal himself as one of my three principal guides. I was made aware of mistakes in the structure of my teachingvehicle (the Conservatory) and immediately began the process of releasing thatfrom my life. I traveled to the Soviet Union in May 1985 with 80 other yogis,artists, teachers, actors, authors, and clergy to establish grassroots contactwith Russian counterparts. Upon returning home, I secured a job as a musicteacher in the New York City suburb of Mahwah, New Jersey.Our first child was born that August, and a new chapter ofmy life - that of a father - began in earnest, all the while attempting toserve humanity through music and my love of children.

People involved in that industry oftenclaim that young athletes are benefiting from recent changes to the system, butare current practices actually “good” for kids—or their families? Throughoutthe book, the authors draw from interviews they conducted with parents,players, and coaches, as well as their combined three decades of experiencewith youth sports. They document the challenges that parents face as theyoversee their children's extracurricular lives. The authors conclude that thedecisions adults make are often logical, given the emphasis our society placeson winning at all costs. More Than Just a Game provides parents with theinformation they need to navigate a profit-driven system that often overlooksthe needs of actual children.

He grew up in the German Democratic Republic undera Communist ruling government. Bernd attended the Technische Universität inChemnitz, Saxony, Germany, and graduated with a Master's Degree in MechanicalEngineering, with a focus on Manufacturing Process Design and Computer-AidedManufacturing. Very early in his life, he began to show an interest in Germanhistory, music, and modern information technology. When the Berlin Wall,separating East and West Berlin, fell on November 9, 1989, his world radicallychanged - an event that allowed him to embark on a personal journey, eventuallyleading him to move to Phoenix, Arizona, where he lives today.Bernd's move to the United States connects him with Fritzwho served many months in an American POW camp in 1945-1946 after WWII ended.The - what could be called: The Häber Family Trilogy - link between him and hisgrandfather is Bernd's father Herbert Häber who had climbed up in the hierarchyof the East German Communist Party, the SED, and later became a member of thePolitburo in 1984, the political body composed of the highest officials of theparty, state, and security organs. In 1985, Herbert was expelled from thePolitburo due to a staged high-level plot against him. After Germanreunification in 1990, Herbert was indicted and prosecuted for being allegedlyresponsible, as a Politburo member, for some of the killings at the BerlinWall. He faced two related criminal trials at the District Court of Berlinbetween 1995 and 2004.Bernd is the author of several books, such as "LettersTo and From My Senators FLAKE and MCCAIN: How they might have failed to fulfilltheir constitutional obligation", "Tempest - 20th Anniversary",and "The Wondrous Story of Hugo and Matilda".
