Imani’s personal journey is a testimony to her drive and determination towards the advancement of all people who want to improve their quality of life. Coming to England in 1976 and having to deal with racism within the society and in the education system she experienced self-doubt, obesity, internalised oppression and teenage motherhood. Through this journey she developed her own inner resources and resilience to overcome fear and self-doubt leading her to DARE TO BE BOLD! This journey has created the dynamic, inspirational leader, motivator, healer and spiritual development facilitator we see today.
Imani is the Director of KMT Rising and a Co-Founder at Be Me Like We Ltd.

Her work locally, nationally, and internationally as a Lecturer, Author, Mindfulness Trainer, and Holistic Health Practitioner has helped hundreds of people to transform their lives.
Imani’s personal journey is a testimony to her drive, tenacity, and determination towards the empowerment of all people. Through her own personal journey towards self-actualisation, she now supports others to tap into their inner resources, resilience to overcome fear, anxiety and self-negation so that they can be their healthier and authentic selves.
