Kute Blackson: What It Truly Takes To Embody Freedom As Men | EP 11

Kute Blackson is a renowned inspirational speaker, teacher, transformational coach, and the host of the popular Podcast „Soultalk“. He is also the author of the national best-selling books "You are the One" and "The Magic of Surrender".

Born in Ghana, West Africa, Kute's life was profoundly shaped by his multicultural upbringing as the child of a Japanese mother and a Ghanaian father.

Growing up in London, as the son of a revered spiritual leader of more than 300 churches, Kute began to speak in front of large audiences by the age of 8.

At the ripe of 14, he was ordained as a minister by his father and was announced to be his successor.

In his heart, however, he knew that this wasn't the path that was set out for him. At 17, he humbly confessed to his father that it wasn't his desire to become a minister, causing a lasting rift within their relationship.

At his core, Kute had a desire to move to America - to live at the heart of the personal development scene amongst the many spiritual mentors he grew up reading about

At 18 with 2 suitcases and 800$ in his bank account, he set out for his dream to America cultivating a deeply spiritual life along the way.

Today, Kute's mission is simple: to awaken and inspire people globally, guiding them to inner freedom, authentic living and fulfilling their true life's purpose

Widely regarded as the next generation leader, Inc magazine calls him „the mindfulness guru billionaires go to for advice“. He's also the youngest member to have been voted into the transformational leadership Council, a select group of 100 of the world's foremost authorities in the personal development industry.

Kute profoundly impacted my own journey – something I shared with him in the conversation. When I learned he'd be in Bali for his final retreat on the Island, I knew I wanted to come together for this unique opportunity.

Now, for all of you listening:

Get ready...

Because this conversation is on fire. Kute's passion, devotion to truth, and unapologetic approach shine through every sentence, leaving deep impressions through numerous moments of the conversation.

Within this interview, We delve into the challenges modern men face. From letting go of our fathers approval, the importance of grieving, recognizing that no one will save you, the importance of building a relationship with death, what men need to know about relationships and the importance of embracing a life of integrity.

Among the numerous interviews I've done by now, this is without a doubt one of my favorites and a conversation that I myself will come back to.

In the following conversation Kute and I cover following topics

• Kute's origin story
• The importance of letting go of our father's approval
• The importance of taking responsibility and being willing to face the consequences of our actions
• The importance of grieving
• Facing our own death; so we can step into the boldness of living
• The number one pursuit of men
• What men get wrong about relationships
• What Kute learned about becoming a man by becoming a father
• Bringing awareness to the places we lie to ourselves and stepping into the truth of our experience
