Kareem Heru I-Ahmenatu has been committed for more than 12 years to educating and empowering adults and youth and has worked for 10 years as a counselor and a mentor. He got involved in this work in 2006 and is a Certified Shadow Work® Coach. Aside from being a participant in the opportunities this work has delivered to him, he now can cultivate and nourish his conviction to help others in way that brings them some level of change in their lives in the areas that are important to them. Through these years of instituting and pioneering his conviction, he can say he is a beacon of light and with that light he allows others to see their light.
In life when you have problems, situations that may seem impossible to get through, as a coach in this work, Kareem will stand beside you as you redefine your life. If you are like many people, you have habits that have become so much a part of who you are that they are difficult to change. When change is difficult, a step is missing. The missing step involves looking at parts of ourselves we have denied or thrown into our shadow, thinking we can hide them from others. When we do that, they are also hidden from ourselves and hinder us from developing some of our most precious gifts, talents and capacities. Just like exercising to increase your physical strength, Shadow Work® alters your physical reactions to emotional situations and allows you to strengthen new pathways and dissolve old, ineffective ways of being.
“Being a Shadow Work® coach has given me the opportunity to be a wonderful friend, guide, experienced communicator and listener. I am a lover of life and a seeker of universal truth, to which I attribute my own personal growth and which is reflected in the work I do with clients.”
Kareem lives in Denver, Colorado, with his family. He can be reached at (303) 564-3079 or by email at kam5@rocketmail.com.
