Kelly L. Campbell (they/she) speaks and writes about trauma, leadership, and consciousness—”The New TLC.” The author of Heal to Lead (Wiley, April 2024), Kelly is a Trauma-Informed Leadership Coach to emerging and established leaders who know they are meant for more. Kelly’s vision is to empower more than half of humanity to heal its childhood trauma so that we may reimagine and rebuild the world together.

From Chapter 7: What is High-Conscious Leadership?

"Though rare, high-conscious leaders are found across multiple sectors as well as within the realms of activism. They are the exquisite embodiment of contemplation and catalytic action.

Historical examples include Albert Einstein, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Nelson Mandela, Maya Angelou, and Desmond Tutu. Present-day examples include Arlan Hamilton, Arianna Huffington, Tammy Duckworth, Greta Thunberg, Yvon Chouinard (Patagonia), Hamdi Ulukaya (Chobani, La Colombe), Leena Nair (Chanel), Safra Catz (Oracle), Ursula Burns (Xerox), Sophia Leonora Mendelsohn (SAP), Christiana Figueres (Global Optimism), Elizabeth Wathuti (Green Generation Initiative), Arman Anatürk (HackCapital), Peggy Liu (JUCCCE), Pia Heidenmark Cook (IKEA), Steve Pemberton (Workhuman), Laila Tarraf (Allbirds), Vandana Shiva (Navdanya), Malala Yousafzai, Rihanna, Barbara Corcoran, Oprah Winfrey, and Michelle Obama.

By the way, it should not be lost on us that most of these high-conscious leaders are women and people of color.

Typically those who have faced significant adversity early on, or who have come into the world on fire, coerce change."

Daniel Huerter brings his entrepreneurial spirit back to the company he co-founded in 2016. After graduating from University of Kansas in 2012, Huerter pursued a successful career with a Fortune 500 software company. He quickly gained the trust of high-level clients in the public sector like SMU, Cal Poly, and even The United States Senate. His drive and passion to create something he believed in, helped push him to take the risk and leave that career behind - rolling the dice with a cannabis startup in the early days of the CBD boom. 

Huerter would become the first person to ever speak about the benefits of CBD for athletes on national television, highlighting the company’s partnership with The CrossFit Games on CBS Sports in 2018. He would continue to help Pure Spectrum grow and achieve history-making milestones, before stepping down as COO in 2019. After co-founding and helping run a hemp distribution company from 2019 to 2021 - Huerter answered the call from his first company - asking him to return and take over as CEO. Since then,

Daniel led his company to become one of the first cannabis companies to partner with an MLB team! Pure Spectrum is now The Trusted Wellness Partner of the Kansas City Royals. If Daniel isn’t at his desk at Pure Spectrum’s headquarters, you might be able to find him at the music studio he co-founded, volunteering for organizations that help young entrepreneurs - or crushing a workout before spending time with his family, fiancé, and dog, Kobe.

My mother passed away from breast cancer March 5, 2011 and my father who was a Vietnam War veteran passed away October 30, 2022. I personally know the pain, financial stress, and heartache it causes families to have when the breadwinner of the family gets either sick in the hospital or passes away. Because of this first hand knowledge I didn’t want families to go through what I went through. If it wasn’t for Life Insurance my family would have lost all of the properties to Foreclosure and the hard earned sacrifices my family worked so hard to build to leave generational wealth would have vanished.

 We are a faith based, mission driven company whose focus goes well beyond just selling life insurance. We break generational financial curses, keep families together so they don’t fight over assets left behind. We provide “LIFE” insurance that you can use while you are LIVING in the event you get sick called “LIVING BENEFITS” which I wish someone would of told my mother about when getting life insurance. You can also “Become Your Own Bank” with Life Insurance and set up tax free retirements.

   I was a former High School teacher and PSAL Championship basketball coach for 15 years in Brooklyn, NYC before getting my Real Estate Brokers License in 2013 until present. I have a 7 year old son and recently relocated to Connecticut. I have sold many homes in my real estate career and realized that many families sold their homes because they didn’t have the proper life insurance plan in place or was underinsured to prevent their homes from being sold which caused families to grow apart or fight over the home.

   Let’s get together and put a life plan in place for you that will protect, prosper, and prepare you for the future!

   “You know, a man’s life is the most precious thing in the world, isn’t it? So isn’t it odd that a man will insure EVERYTHING but his own life?”
