Tell us your story! We’d love to hear a little bit about yourself, your family, brand and mission.

I was born in a small city called “Zenica” located in Bosnia-Herzegovina. When I turned one year-old my parents wanted more in life and moved to Belgium for business. We went to Bosnia and Croatia for holidays every year. I grew up speaking four different languages, these were: Bosnian, German, Flemish (=Dutch) and English.

At the age of 16 I started modeling.

Through a lifetime of experience as a professional model, producer and entrepreneur business I started developing an interest for acting in 2014.

I’ve been a musician my whole life but recently I’ve started a project where I want to create music that is scientifically proven to heal people!

With soundbath healing we can help the world be a better place, especially now, when the world needs it most!

We moved to Los Angeles in 2017. While me and my son Janis Ostojic were modeling in Europe we got picked up for a show called “Growing Up Supermodel” in Los Angeles that was being showcased on LifetimeTV A&E.

Family: Me and my wife are very happy with our four boys of 28, 25, 22 and 14 years-old. We have a very strong dynamic and its very adventurous because there is always something going on. My third son Gianni’s wife has just given birth to our gorgeous grandson “Bor” Ostojic.

We’re very excited to see this happen and go on this adventure with them!

Mission: I would love to help people heal themselves with soundbath healing and my Native American flute.

What is sound healing and how can it benefit families/parents/kids?

A soundbath is an acoustic sound healing journey that relaxes the body, cleanses your subsconciousness, calms the mind and activates your body’s natural healing system. All of the healing instruments used in a soundbath help you retune and rebalance all of your chakras. They restore your energy levels and bring you to a higher state of vibration. On this journey, you have to be clear of what you want and let go of everything that no longer serves you.

As a new grandparent, what are some words of wisdom you’ll share with your kids as they begin the journey or parenthood?

Choosing to have children can be very quick and easy, but raising them takes a lot patience. It’s a very big responsibility.

Always talk to your children, communication is one of the most important things when it comes to children. Try to understand them because for them it is not easy to understand you.

Another thing is respect. When you respect your child, your child will give that back.

Then one day, when the time is right, you will feel that you have to let your child go and let them explore the world and make mistakes and learn from themselves.
