CBD relief just got artistic with ERB-Hub’s new disposable vape line that fuses flavor, balance, and digital art.

ERB-Hub debuts a cutting-edge disposable vape collection infused with CBD and wrapped in exclusive digital art.

New Jersey, US, 17th June 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, ERB-Hub, New Jersey’s go-to destination for high-quality CBD products paired with exclusive digital art, is proud to unveil its highly anticipated line of disposable vapes. Designed to deliver a therapeutic experience with aesthetic elegance, this new launch pushes the boundaries of both wellness and visual culture by uniting premium CBD with striking digital art.

“ERB-Hub is proud to offer a product that’s as enjoyable to look at as it is to use. Our customers want more than just relief; they want beauty, uniqueness, and personality. That’s what we deliver.”

Each vape in this collection is more than just a product; it’s a multisensory journey. In an industry often marked by generic packaging and indistinct experiences, ERB-Hub has taken a bold step forward by embedding each item with digital art, making every purchase feel personalized and expressive.

The new lineup features a range of disposable vape models catering to various needs, flavor preferences, and mood states. Among the highlights is the 2G California Honey Live Resin Disposable Vape Digital Art, a curated selection of vapes categorized by sativa, hybrid, and indica profiles. Sativa lovers can explore vibrant and energizing options like Super Haze, Mango Haze, Jolly Rancher, and Apple Pie, each of which delivers uplifting effects ideal for daytime use.

For those who prefer a more balanced experience, the hybrid range includes White Gummi, White Cherry, Frosted Cake, and Cookies and Cream, all designed to blend mental clarity with physical relaxation. On the soothing end of the spectrum, the indica offerings — Black Truffle and Sherbet — are tailored for deep relaxation, ideal for unwinding at the end of a long day.

Adding to the variety is the 4G Glitch Extracts Disposable Vape Digital Art line. These high-capacity vapes are perfect for seasoned users seeking robust effects. With flavor options like Berry Pineapple, Berry Cake, Mango Nana, and a Mixed variety pack, this series captures the palate and soothes the senses in equal measure. Each Glitch Extract vape digital art is wrapped in dynamic digital art, transforming the device into a pocket-sized gallery.

The 3.5G Blinkers Disposable Vape Digital Art series broadens the experience even further. The sativa lineup includes Green Apple Diesel, Maui Wowie, Purple Haze, and Lemon Slushie — flavors that energize the body and focus the mind. Hybrid lovers can opt for Pink Runtz, Banana Runtz, Gushers, and Mango Tango, designed to offer well-rounded effects and full-spectrum satisfaction. For those seeking a deep-body calm, the indica Tropical Grape delivers rich flavor and full-body relaxation, all cloaked in visually compelling digital design.

“Each vape in our new collection tells a story — not just through flavor and effect, but through the art that surrounds it,” said one ERB-Hub sales representative. “We’re not just selling CBD; we’re offering a form of creative expression. These are digital art pieces you can carry and experience in real life.”

The brand’s popular Stiiizy Disposable Vape Digital Art line rounds out the new collection with sativa, hybrid, and indica options as well. Strawberry Cough is a sativa standout known for its crisp, clear effects. Hybrid flavors Apple Fritter and Pink Acai strike a balance between mental and physical relief. The indica lineup includes Biscotti and Purple Punch, two favorites renowned for their calming and restful properties. A Mixed flavor option is also available, perfect for users wanting to explore a range of profiles.

Also included is the Vapemeds Cured Resin Disposable Vape Digital Art series, a line known for its smooth draw and flavorful hits. Sativa fans will enjoy Sugar Plum, Fruit Punch, OG Chem, and Jet Fuel, while indica connoisseurs can relax with Donny Burger and GDP. A Mixed assortment rounds out the line, ensuring that users have access to a full spectrum of effects. As with every ERB-Hub product, these vapes are paired with original digital artwork that brings visual joy to the therapeutic process.

“ERB-Hub is proud to offer a product that’s as enjoyable to look at as it is to use,” noted a second ERB-Hub sales representative. “Our customers want more than just relief; they want beauty, uniqueness, and personality. That’s what we deliver.”

This launch is part of ERB-Hub’s broader mission to fuse art and wellness into a singular experience. Beyond disposable vapes, the company offers a full suite of CBD products, including edibles, premium strains, pre-rolls, and carts. Each product, from gummies to vapes, comes with its own dedicated digital art, creating a unified aesthetic across the brand. This not only enhances the user experience but also elevates the brand into the realm of lifestyle and design.

Edibles, for example, are available in various strengths and flavors, tailored for needs ranging from anxiety relief to sleep support. The pre-rolls are crafted from top-tier hemp flower and designed for convenience and purity. ERB-Hub’s carts are made with potent CBD extracts and clean terpene profiles, ensuring consistency and quality across every puff. The strains, meanwhile, are handpicked and curated to include top hybrids, energizing sativas, and calming indicas.

What sets all these offerings apart is the attention to detail — not just in formulation and sourcing, but in presentation. Each package is adorned with unique digital artwork that reflects the product’s personality. From soothing earth tones for relaxing strains to vibrant gradients for energizing vapes, every product becomes an experience for both the body and the eye.

ERB-Hub’s dedication to innovation, quality, and aesthetics has already garnered attention from CBD connoisseurs and newcomers alike. As the market continues to evolve, the company remains committed to pushing boundaries — offering not just relief but resonance. This new line of disposable vapes is a testament to that philosophy.

A powerful debut explores the human cost of conflict through one of the Olympics’ darkest chapters — based on factual truths

Costa Mesa, CA, 16th June 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, In the summer of 1972, the world turned its attention to Munich for a celebration of unity, peace, and athletic excellence. Instead, it witnessed one of the most harrowing tragedies in Olympic history—an event that shocked international spectators and exposed decades of political neglect, unresolved conflict, and global indifference.

In her debut work, BLOOD and GOLD: Athletes, Tragedies & Dynamism of Peace, Christie Sikora offers far more than a historical retelling. Based on factual truths, this compelling book uncovers the personal stories and suppressed narratives behind the Munich tragedy, delivering an empathetic and investigative journey into the heart of a political powder keg.

“This isn’t just about what happened in Munich,” says Sikora. “It’s about what led there—and what the world has refused to acknowledge since.”

Through emotional storytelling and sharp historical insight, BLOOD and GOLD asks: • What forces drove this moment in history?
• What warnings were overlooked?
• Who has borne the heaviest losses?
• And how can we move toward peace — not just politically, but personally?

Sikora challenges simplistic narratives of good versus evil, inviting readers to confront the deeper realities of displacement, propaganda, and global injustice. She holds all parties accountable while pointing to the possibility of healing through truth, empathy, and awareness.

A portion of every sale supports humanitarian efforts:

• A $0.25 donation goes to Doctors Without Borders, a nonprofit humanitarian organization providing urgent medical care worldwide.
• A $0.25 contribution supports Dynamism to Peace International Foundation, which channels those funds to carefully selected nonprofit organizations serving traumatized children, women, and men in the world’s most vulnerable regions.

About the Author

Christie Sikora’s writing emerges from a place of deep moral courage and unwavering empathy. She refuses to turn away from the hard questions of war, justice, and memory — offering not just critique, but meaningful solutions. Her work urges readers to look beyond propaganda, to reconsider inherited perspectives, and to embrace a more unified, peaceful future.

Why It Matters Now

BLOOD and GOLD is a timely meditation on history’s unresolved trauma — and a call to action for today’s fractured world. As global conflict, polarization, and disinformation reach new extremes, this book offers clarity, compassion, and hope.

Availability

BLOOD and GOLD: Athletes, Tragedies & Dynamism of Peace is available at authorchristiesikora.com, Barnes & Noble, and select independent bookstores. Sikora will also host a series of in-person signings, virtual events, and global dialogues throughout the year.

By encouraging open conversation and therapeutic exploration, MindShift Psychological Services aims to demystify anendophasia, reduce stigma, and help adults better understand their inner cognitive world through online psychotherapy

Corona, CA, 16th June 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, For many people, thoughts take shape in the form of an internal voice, a steady, familiar dialogue that narrates daily experiences, rehearses conversations, or reflects on decisions. But for others, this inner monologue is absent. Instead, thoughts may come as abstract concepts, visuals, or sensations with no accompanying verbal language. This phenomenon, known as anendophasia, remains largely unknown outside academic and clinical circles, yet it can have a profound impact on how individuals experience identity, process emotion, and engage in therapy.

MindShift Psychological Services, a psychotherapy practice serving adults across California via telehealth, is working to raise awareness about anendophasia and the broader spectrum of inner voice diversity. In doing so, the practice hopes to validate the experiences of those who have long questioned why their thinking style doesn’t match the norm, and to offer clinical support for individuals struggling to express or regulate internal dialogue.

Unlike aphantasia, which refers to the inability to visualize mental imagery, anendophasia is the absence of an internal verbal stream. While not classified as a disorder, it represents a cognitive variation that can influence memory retention, emotional awareness, decision-making, and social communication. For those with anendophasia, it’s not that they lack thoughts; it’s that their thoughts don’t translate into words inside the mind. Many only discover this difference when prompted by questions like, “Do you hear your own voice when you think?”

The lack of general understanding around anendophasia can leave individuals feeling confused, isolated, or even defective. Because popular culture and clinical language often assume the presence of inner speech, those who lack it may struggle to relate to common therapeutic exercises that rely on verbal reflection, self-talk, or imagined dialogue. According to MindShift’s therapists, recognizing this cognitive difference can be a turning point in making therapy more effective and personalized.

“Many clients with anendophasia report feeling out of place in traditional therapy environments,” said a licensed therapist at MindShift Psychological Services. “Once they realize there’s nothing wrong with how their mind works, they’re able to approach therapy with more confidence, clarity, and self-compassion.”

The practice encourages a flexible approach to therapy that accommodates different cognitive styles. For example, instead of relying on verbal journaling or spoken affirmations, therapists may introduce visual mapping tools, metaphor-based frameworks, somatic awareness techniques, or narrative reconstruction that bypasses the need for inner speech. These alternative methods can help clients with anendophasia express themselves more authentically, engage with emotional content more comfortably, and achieve the same therapeutic goals through different means.

MindShift Psychological Services also notes that anendophasia often goes hand in hand with strengths in other cognitive areas, such as spatial reasoning, conceptual problem-solving, and rapid information synthesis. Recognizing these strengths helps clients move away from self-judgment and toward a more empowered understanding of their minds. It also allows therapists to help clients structure coping strategies and reflection exercises that match how their brains naturally operate.

The practice also emphasizes that anendophasia exists on a spectrum. Some people may have intermittent inner speech or only experience it in certain contexts. Others may have never developed it at all. Just like learning styles or emotional processing differences, this cognitive variation deserves recognition without judgment.

MindShift Psychological Services continues to refine its online therapy approach. Their therapists undergo ongoing training to stay attuned to emerging research on neurodiversity and the nuances of cognitive experience. This includes integrating neuroscience-informed practices with relational therapy, ensuring that all clients (regardless of how their minds function) receive care that is empathetic, personalized, and evidence-based.

In an era when many adults feel disconnected from their internal world or unsure how to interpret their cognitive experiences, MindShift Psychological Services is working to open the door to curiosity rather than pathologizing. For clients who feel like they think differently, that door can be the beginning of meaningful healing.

About MindShift Psychological Services

MindShift Psychological Services is a psychotherapy practice offering online therapy exclusively for adults. With licensed therapists available via secure telehealth sessions, MindShift supports individuals facing anxiety, emotional dysregulation, relationship challenges, and cognitive processing differences. The practice is based in Riverside and Corona, with services available statewide.

Washington, US, 16th June 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, In an era defined by technological acceleration and digital disruption, few voices are as grounded, thoughtful, and timely as Jared Tam’s. With over 20 years of experience in the tech industry, Jared has emerged as a sought-after strategist and advisor to organizations seeking clarity amid complexity. His work spans AI deployment, cybersecurity, and enterprise digital transformation—but what truly sets him apart is his unwavering commitment to ethical innovation.

In a marketplace increasingly focused on speed, scale, and shareholder value, Jared is making the case for something more deliberate: a future where technology is developed and deployed with human impact in mind. From leading high-level consulting engagements to mentoring the next generation of technologists, Jared’s mission is clear—innovation should never come at the expense of responsibility.

A Career Built on Curiosity and Accountability

Jared Tam’s journey into technology began in Seattle, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from the University of Washington. His academic path led him to Stanford University, where he completed a master’s degree in Artificial Intelligence just as the field was beginning to shift from academic theory to industry adoption. “I was fascinated by how machines could learn,” Jared recalls. “But what really stuck with me was the question of consequence. What would we do with that power? And who would be responsible for how it was used?”

That question has guided his career ever since. Early on, Jared worked in fast-paced startup environments, where he led product teams and engineered scalable solutions from scratch. He later transitioned into strategic consulting, where he now helps global companies—and increasingly, public sector agencies—understand and manage the risks and rewards of emerging technologies.

Beyond the Buzzwords: Making AI Understandable and Ethical

While many in tech embrace AI as a buzzword, Jared Tam insists on nuance. “There’s a huge difference between implementing machine learning models and building truly ethical, transparent systems,” he says. His consulting firm focuses on helping clients deploy AI in a way that respects user privacy, promotes fairness, and aligns with real business goals—not just trend-chasing.

Jared is often called into organizations during moments of strategic uncertainty. Whether it’s a legacy company attempting to modernize operations or a startup scaling faster than its security protocols can handle, Jared steps in as a translator between ambition and infrastructure. His expertise in AI, cloud architecture, and cybersecurity has earned him a reputation as a “tech whisperer” for executive teams.

But he’s also a realist. “We need to acknowledge the blind spots,” Jared says. “Bias in algorithms, data misuse, lack of regulation—it’s all real. If we ignore those things now, we’ll pay for it later in ways that hurt people and break trust.”

A Thought Leader Who Values Inclusion

Jared Tam’s voice is increasingly present in industry forums, academic panels, and policy think tanks. He has been invited to speak at conferences on topics ranging from AI governance to the social implications of automation. But he’s just as likely to be found teaching Python to middle school students at a local community center. “I never want to be someone who talks about the future of tech without doing anything to shape who gets to be part of it,” Jared says. Through workshops and volunteer programs, he mentors young people—especially those from underrepresented backgrounds—on coding, systems thinking, and ethical design principles.

He’s also advocated for more inclusive hiring in tech. “Innovation doesn’t happen in an echo chamber,” he explains. “We need more voices, more perspectives, more experiences in the room if we want to build tools that work for everyone.”

Balancing Strategy with Empathy

Colleagues and clients alike describe Jared as someone who listens deeply, communicates clearly, and leads with empathy—traits that are increasingly rare in a high-stakes, high- speed industry. His consulting model emphasizes collaboration over prescriptions, often
embedding with client teams to co-create solutions rather than simply hand over recommendations.

“He has this way of simplifying the complex without dumbing it down,” says one CIO at a healthcare startup. “We were struggling to understand what AI could realistically do for us, and Jared not only helped us build the right system—he helped us build the right mindset.” His ability to bridge technical and non-technical stakeholders is one reason he’s in such high demand, especially among companies going through digital transformation. Whether he’s redesigning a cloud infrastructure or assessing the risks of a new AI-driven feature, Jared nconsistently brings people together around shared values and clear outcomes.

The Personal Side of a Tech Leader

Despite his demanding schedule, Jared Tam remains deeply rooted in the Pacific Northwest, where he lives with his partner and their rescue dog, Pixel. He spends his weekends hiking in the Cascades, experimenting with smart home tech, or diving into speculative fiction.
His favorite reads? Authors like Ted Chiang and N.K. Jemisin, who explore the intersection of technology and humanity. “Science fiction is one of the few genres that asks both ‘what if?’ and ‘what then?’” Jared says. “That’s the kind of thinking we need more of in real life.”
He also builds custom PCs as a hobby, often sharing designs with online communities and students. It’s one more way he keeps his hands in the code—something he believes keeps his thinking sharp.

Looking Ahead: A Blueprint for Responsible Growth

As AI becomes more embedded in everyday tools—from healthcare to hiring to social media—Jared Tam is doubling down on his message: it’s time for tech leaders to think more like stewards than disruptors.

“Disruption without accountability isn’t innovation,” he says. “It’s recklessness. We have the tools, we have the talent—what we need now is wisdom.” To that end, Jared is working on a forthcoming book that will explore the role of values in the age of automation. He’s also building a public resource platform to help small and midsize organizations understand AI ethics, data governance, and cyber resilience without needing enterprise-level budgets.

“The future is being built in real time,” Jared concludes. “I just want to make sure we’re
building it for the right reasons—and for everyone.”

About Jared Tam

Jared Tam is a Seattle-based technology strategist and consultant with over 20 years of experience in AI, cybersecurity, and enterprise transformation. A graduate of the University of Washington and Stanford University, Jared helps companies align emerging technology
with mission-driven values. He is also a mentor, speaker, and advocate for inclusive and ethical innovation.

Ontario, Canada, 17th June 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, Philanthropist, mentor, and legacy strategist Hong Wei Liao has launched her official website, https://www.hongweiliaobotrich.com/, a digital platform that brings her life’s mission into a shared public space. The site offers a thoughtful and practical experience for individuals looking to build meaningful lives rooted in legacy, mentorship, and service.

“My goal is to help others find clarity in their purpose and contribute quietly but consistently to the communities around them,” said Hong Wei Liao. “This website is not just about me—it’s about creating space for others to reflect, learn, and act.”

The launch comes at a time when mentorship and youth support are more important than ever. According to MENTOR Canada, only 30% of young people report having access to a mentor, despite studies showing that mentored youth are 55% more likely to enroll in college and 78% more likely to volunteer regularly. Through the Canada Youth Funding Association (CYFA) and other global efforts, Liao has helped countless young people access education, mentorship, and leadership development.

The new website showcases her ongoing work in mentorship, youth programs, women’s leadership initiatives, and cross-cultural community building. It features:

• A library of thought pieces, interviews, and quotes

• Updates on her philanthropic initiatives and sponsored programs

• Highlights from youth-focused cultural events like Global Kids Icon and Vancouver Beauty Dance World

• Tools and ideas for personal reflection and legacy planning

• A contact portal for mentorship requests and project collaborations

“I believe in small, quiet steps,” Liao says. “Sponsor one student. Support one dream. That’s how change starts.”

The website reflects Liao’s lifelong focus on action without attention. It also serves as a call to others: to mentor, to listen, to lead slowly and with intention. Visitors are encouraged to take independent steps—whether by mentoring someone in their own community, starting a cross-cultural exchange project, or journaling their personal legacy story.

“Legacy is about what we leave in people, not just what we leave to them,” said Liao. “You don’t have to wait to be wealthy or well-known to start building it.”

Call to Action:

Visit the website. Read, reflect, and then act. Whether it’s mentoring a student, volunteering your time, or simply slowing down to listen, your next step can shape someone else’s future.

About Hong Wei Liao

Hong Wei Liao is a Toronto-based mentor, investor, and community leader. She is the founder and Chair of the Botrich Family Wealth Heritage and Development Center and has received recognitions from Queen Elizabeth II, King Charles III, and UNICEF for her leadership in legacy planning, women’s empowerment, and youth development.

Nonprofit expands support for young people navigating mental health, academic pressure, and life readiness

Greenwood Village, CO, 11th June 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, As students face increasing levels of academic pressure, mental health struggles, and uncertain pathways to higher education, Youth With A Future (YWAF) is stepping up. The organization has officially launched a series of new programs designed to help young people not just survive but thrive by offering real tools to manage stress, build leadership skills, and break down college access barriers.

“We’re seeing a clear cry for support,” said a spokesperson at YWAF. “From burnout to self-doubt, today’s teens are up against more than ever. These programs were built with them in mind—practical, inclusive, and focused on long-term growth.”

One of the core components of the initiative is mental health support. With studies showing rising anxiety and depression rates among teens, YWAF’s new offerings include peer support groups, mindfulness training, and workshops on how to recognize signs of stress and burnout. These sessions are designed to equip students with strategies that promote emotional resilience while also reducing the stigma around asking for help.

“Our sessions aren’t just about talking—we teach students how to apply what they learn to daily life,” said the spokesperson. “That includes creating routines, setting boundaries, and finding a balance between school, social media, and responsibilities at home.”

Leadership is another key focus. YWAF’s leadership development track provides interactive opportunities for students to practice public speaking, teamwork, and decision-making. Through real-life projects and mentorship, teens gain confidence in their abilities to lead both in and out of the classroom.

The curriculum encourages students to think critically about their strengths and values and how they can influence change in their schools and communities. It’s not about creating the loudest voice in the room; it’s about empowering every young person to see themselves as capable, worthy of being heard, and equipped to lead with purpose.

For many students, the path to higher education feels overwhelming or out of reach. That’s why YWAF has expanded its college readiness programming to include SAT prep, one-on-one application support, and workshops for both students and parents on financial aid, scholarships, and navigating college systems.

These resources are intentionally designed to meet students where they are—whether they’re planning for college, considering vocational training, or still unsure about what comes next.

“We don’t believe there’s just one version of success,” said the spokesperson. “Our role is to make sure every student has access to the tools and knowledge they need to make the best choice for their future.”

In addition to structured programs, YWAF continues to emphasize community-building and mentorship. Teens participating in the programs are matched with mentors who can offer encouragement, career insights, and guidance during tough moments. These relationships often become one of the most valuable takeaways from the experience.

“Being part of Youth With A Future helped me feel like I had people in my corner,” said one student participant. “I learned how to speak up, manage my time, and believe in myself.”

Youth With A Future invites schools, community leaders, and families to get involved—whether by referring students, volunteering, or partnering with the organization to bring these vital programs to more youth in need.

Those who want to learn more or sign up for upcoming sessions can refer to the contact details below.
