Trust me when I tell you that Dean Adams in unique; he is on a mission to facilitate this growth into heart consciousness. Dean is a cinematographer whose work has been showcased in documentaries for the BBC, ABC News, France 24, Arte Reportage, PBS and the Discovery Channel. In 2008, he was awarded a Media Excellence Award from the International Association of Broadcasters; his half-hour film was nominated for best documentary at the Bayeux-Calvados Prize for War Correspondence. In addition to making his own films, Dean has established himself as a master trainer, running video journalism intensives for the BBC, TV4 Stockholm and RTL Germany. But it was his filmmaking workshops with refugees and underground Burmese journalists, and his contributions to the 2010 Oscar nominated documentary, Burma VJ, that opened his eyes to the empowering nature of documentary filmmaking. In 2012, Dean was recruited as part of the management team tasked with creating the Documentary Unit at the new Qatar TV. He continues his duties to the channel as Deputy Editor-In-Chief and Senior Reporter, launching new series and directing half-hour documentaries. Dean has started a grass-roots movement where Social Media and Technology intersect – this is his initiation of “10-HOPE-FILMS”. Dean's future goal is to create character-driven stories from the trenches of human ingenuity, about visionaries who are leading the mantle for change in the environment, education, public health, politics, religion and science.
Sherri Stoneberger's life's meaning and direction have always been defined by helping family and others. Originating from a Danish immigrant family of 14 children in a small farm town in Oklahoma, Sherri Stoneberger dreamed of having a better life than the struggling farm life of her parents. She pursued a Bachelor's degree at the University of Central Oklahoma and later studied Educational Psychology at California State University East Bay. She married an Air Force officer and became a young mother of a treasured son Mark. Her family was soon transferred to Honolulu, Hawaii, where she welcomed a beautiful daughter Melissa to the world. Eighteen months later, the direction of her journey changed forever with Melissa's diagnosis of brain cancer. Sherri's never-give-up attitude determined how she shaped her life during this period. When doctor's said there was no hope , Sherri committed to a different reality that there was and she raised her daughter with that philosophy. Sherri took her experience and background to purse a Real Estate Executive career 28 years ago to accommodate a flexible schedule of doctor's appointments and continuing treatments for Melissa. She flourished in meeting the needs of other families and providing a wonderful environment for her daughter and family.

Louie Bernstein is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a private practice in the San Francisco Bay Area specializing in Couples and Relationship Counseling. Using an integrative and holistic approach, he draws from the best of the relationship and psychological philosophies, including: Object-Relations theory, Harville Hendrix’ Imago Therapy and Dr. John Gottman’s Couples research in assisting individuals and couples in creating healthy, supportive and fulfilling relationships. Personally inspired by the miracle and perfection of nature’s hand in guiding the growth of a living system such as an abundant fruit tree, Louie has developed a unique approach to show couples how to “grow their own great relationship” by aligning with and embracing those same growing principles that Nature uses in growing that great fruit tree from tiny seed to full fruition. By learning how to keep our intimate relationship well nourished with “sunshine, water, nutrients and care”, we can grow that great relationship in which we feel completely Alive, Loved, and Fulfilled.

He has primarily been a business consultant and business owner where he managed projects that supported rights of workers in California. His emphasis has always been working with health and human services organizations. His sensitivities run contrary to most business owners that put profit before serving the community. His philosophy of life is very counter intuitive in that he believes serving others will ultimately provide him with the happiness we all so aspire to.

Matthew David Hurtado is the CEO of Network Holdings LLC. He has been involved in fitness and health supplements since the age of 15 years old, when he first fell in love with bodybuilding.
Matthew has overcome an eating-disorder, Lyme's disease with chronic fatigue syndrome, and PTSD, as well as having endured the financial strains of illness. After becoming successful in several different ventures and running the operations of companies doing millions-of-dollars in sales, Matthew noticed things he didn't like about the supplement industry. One common denominator and theme kept showing up -- most health-supplement companies source inferior ingredients containing toxins and sell their product for thousands of times the actual cost of producing the product to the end consumer. To make matters worse, many of the most successful supplements are sold via the endorsement of some doctor or health guru directly tied into the profits of the company.
In 2013, Matthew decided that it was time to invest his own money and time into researching and developing a brand of products that he would feel safe having his own kids use. This meant that ultra-pure ingredients and world-class manufacturing would have to be the backbone of the company, and cutting-edge science and innovative thinking would be employed to make these products affordable. After hiring an elite staff of advisors, Matthew's dream became realized with the birth of Complete Ascentials in April of 2014.
Matthew enjoys playing guitar, spending time with his family, and his work is his passion.
