Luke Mickelson – Founder, Sleep in Heavenly Peace

Luke Mickelson grew up a hardworking farm kid in the small town of Kimberly, Idaho, where community, character, and service were simply a way of life. An avid athlete and lifelong competitor, he poured his energy into youth programs, coaching, and mentoring—developing both a passion for people and a natural talent for leadership.

That same drive carried into his professional career in business, but something was missing. In 2012, driven by a desire to make a deeper impact, Luke founded Sleep in Heavenly Peace (SHP), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with a simple but powerful mission: “No kid sleeps on the floor in our town.”

What began as a single act of kindness has grown into a global movement. Today, SHP has more than 400 chapters across 47 U.S. states and 4 countries, delivering over 370,000 beds to children in need. Luke has personally trained and mentored hundreds of chapter leaders, sharing his blueprint for community-driven change and empowering thousands to serve with heart and purpose.

His work has been recognized on Mike Rowe’s Returning the Favor, CNN Heroes (Top 10 finalist), NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt, Good Morning America, The Today Show, People Magazine, and even American Ninja Warrior. These platforms have celebrated his unwavering dedication to what he calls the Humans Helping Humans philosophy.

Today, Luke travels the country as a keynote speaker, guest, and podcast host, inspiring audiences to embrace the power of tiny moments that create massive impact—and to discover the joy of serving others in their own communities.

 Benjamin Knight Fuchs, R.Ph
Pharmacist,  Nutritionist , Formulator , Educator , Host of The Bright Side

Benjamin Knight Fuchs, R.Ph, is a registered pharmacist, clinical nutritionist, skincare formulator, and internationally recognized educator who has spent over 40 years transforming the way estheticians, dermatology professionals, and health seekers think about skin. With a background in compounding pharmacy and a deep understanding of nutritional biochemistry, Benjamin brings a unique systems-based perspective to skincare, one that connects the dots between internal health, topical delivery, and cellular repair.

As the founder and formulator of Truth Treatment Systems, Benjamin created a skincare philosophy rooted in transdermal delivery, nutrient density, and bioelectric coherence. His formulations contain no fillers, waxes, preservatives, or cosmetic additives only 100% active, skin-communicative ingredients that nourish the cell from the outside in. Products like his Transdermal C Serum and Retinol 5% are beloved by skincare professionals for their visible results and intelligent design each product acts as topical nutrition, feeding skin cells what they need to energize, rebuild, and renew.

But Benjamin’s work goes far beyond the bottle. He teaches that skin conditions are never just skin-deep they are often the visible expression of what he calls the Triangle of Disease: digestive breakdown, blood sugar imbalance, and chronic stress hormone dysfunction. Through this model, he empowers estheticians to think holistically, helping clients address the internal drivers of acne, aging, sensitivity, and pigmentation with strategic, science-based guidance. Central to his philosophy is the concept of "dirty blood “a state of internal toxicity and inflammation that burdens the skin as a secondary eliminator. His protocols focus on improving digestion, nourishing the blood with oxygen and micronutrients, and calming systemic stress to restore balance at the root level.

Benjamin’s passion for education has made him one of the most trusted voices in the esthetics community. He is a sought-after public speaker, a long-time radio host of “The Bright Side”, and the creator of numerous skin health seminars, esthetician trainings, and professional development courses. With clarity, humor, and clinical precision, he breaks down complex science into practical insights that estheticians can immediately apply in their treatment rooms and client consultations.

Whether he’s speaking on stage, teaching formulation strategy, or hosting his nationally syndicated radio show, Benjamin’s message is simple and powerful: "When you nourish the body systemically and topically, you awaken the skin’s natural healing intelligence." His work continues to revolutionize the skincare industry by restoring the connection between nutrition, skin physiology, and bioelectric health and by reminding professionals that beauty is a biological process, not a cosmetic illusion.

You’ve heard of a Bridezilla, but are YOU a Monster-in-Law?..

… Here’s a 911 Rulebook to Help Moms of Sons 

Navigate the Extraordinary Transition to Mother-in-Law!   

Acclaimed NYC Psychotherapist Offers a Fun Yet Functional Must-Have For This 

Notoriously Intense Relationship

It’s routinely the butt of jokes and reduced to caricatures of overbearing, meddling monsters. Yet in reality, stepping into the role of mother-in-law is daunting and rife with emotional landmines. Sadly, mothers-in-law have been largely left to struggle and blunder alone—until now.              

In How to Be the “Perfect” Mother-in-Law: A Lighthearted Guide for Moms of Married Sons (Amazon, ISBN: 979-8-9930332-0-4; $9.99; Original Trade Paperback), acclaimed psychotherapist and author, Lesley Koeppel, LCSW, has written a book to help every MIL (mother-in-law) find her footing and establish the foundation for a strong, supportive, and lasting bond with her DIL (daughter-in-law). As both a psychotherapist and the mother of two recently married sons, the author brings some much-needed perspective to the naturally complicated MIL/DIL dynamic. “This book is not about blame,” Lesley stresses. “It’s about insight. It’s about empathy. And most of all, it’s about possibility.”

Grounded in psychological wisdom and real-life experience, How to Be the “Perfect” Mother-in-Law offers practical guidance on walking that fine line between being involved in your son’s and his wife’s lives and letting go, providing support while giving them space and privacy. While keeping the tone light and humorous—each chapter opens with a cartoon—Lesley urges every MIL to be honest about her feelings and behaviors toward her DIL, reinforcing this with self-reflection questions. By the end of the book, every mom of a son who is dating, engaged or married will have not only a deeper awareness of her role and meaningful contributions as a MIL but also a toolbox filled with practical strategies—ranging from effective communication techniques to healthy boundary-setting. As a result, she’ll be equipped to handle even the most delicate moments with confidence and grace while fostering a relationship with her DIL that is steady, considerate, and yes, even joyful.

Among key principles for all mothers-in-law to take to heart, Lesley Koeppel discusses: 

• Grief: As a MIL, you must fully grieve the loss of your son in the way you knew him during his childhood—he is not your little boy anymore. Letting yourself be sad is essential to letting go.

• Acceptance: When your son gets engaged, accept his bride-to-be without judgment or criticism. Then, to maintain your relationship with him, focus on building a positive relationship with her.  

• The natural order of priorities: Never make your son choose between you and his wife. If you do, you will lose (in more ways than one). Instead, adapt and support your son’s new primary relationship by fostering their independence and respecting their privacy.         

• Embrace the long view: In interactions with your DIL, learn to hold your tongue. If you get off to a rocky start, acknowledge your mistakes, apologize, and reset. By treating your DIL with respect and kindness, you’ll ensure having a close, loving relationship with your future grandkids.

Most high-performers hit a wall they can't explain. They've optimized sleep, nutrition, hormones, peptides, even stem cells, and they're still losing ground. Recovery takes longer. Brain fog creeps in. The body that once kept up with their ambition... doesn't. 

After 25 years in traditional medicine (spine surgery, neurosurgery, medical devices), Caleb watched the system fail people who needed it most. Reactive. Symptom-focused. Even stem cells didn't deliver: 99% of transplanted cells die within 24 hours. The real mechanism? Exosomes, tiny particles that carry regeneration without rejection. 

Caleb built Apex Regenerative to deliver the highest-potency placental-derived exosomes available, designed to restore cellular signaling and reverse decline without drugs. In three years, he's helped nearly 12,000 patients recover faster, think clearer, and stop wondering if their best years are gone. 

His mission: help driven people feel capable again, with proof, not promises.
