On PivotMe today, we have Kute Blackson, a speaker, author, and transformational teacher, that offers a fresh, bold look at spiritual and self-awareness that might just make a few of us uncomfortable. He was born in Ghana into a family of ministers and expectations and no one was more surprised than him when his father handed over his 3,000-person congregation to Kute at 14 years old. He is now the author of the national bestselling book You.Are.The.One. and most recently, The Magic of Surrender. He is considered the next generation leader in the field of personal development and has been featured on Larry King Now, Fox and Friends, Dr. Drew, and Inc magazine calls him ‘The Mindfulness Guru Billionaires Go to For Advice’.
Kute explains how pain physically, mentally, and spiritually manifests in our lives when we lie to ourselves, and how we can transform our lives by telling the truth.
