Transformational guide, speaker, and author, Kute Blackson knows that this is possible for each of us. He believes that by trusting your instincts, following your soul, and surrendering, you can find your true calling and live an authentic life. How does Kute know this? Because he has lived it himself.

Kute grew up the son of a respected spiritual leader. By age 8, Kute was speaking to his father's congregations of over 3,000 people. By 14, Kute was tapped to follow in his father’s footsteps.
