So, who is Imari Really?
Good question. Take a look at this quirky little timeline.
I started my first
production company at 17.
I wanted to make things that would make people think.
I created content with something to say.
Eventually this brought me to California.
Where I directed content that would go on to reach hundreds of millions of people.
By 26 I had collaborated with organizations like Nike, worked on projects with people like Deepak Chopra, and been nominated for a Streamy Award.
But it was nothing compared to what came next.
After almost a decade of productive and successful years in the industry…
I quit.
I had gotten so far in an industry that was so notoriously hard to break into, looked around and realized that while I had been afforded and achieved so much, I still didn’t feel like myself.
The confidence I thought would come with the success wasn’t there. The fulfillment I hoped would accompany the impact was nowhere to be found.
So I went looking for what was missing.
I taught, I listened, and I learned.
I hosted retreats to support other powerful people in creating balance between internal and external success.
I shared my knowledge with young up and comers searching for purpose, passion, and fulfillment.
I explored my creativity, facilitating live experiences from
fashion shows to movement workshops.
And in all this I learned two things:
1. People tend to forget who they are.
2. I’m very good at reminding them.
So I took the experiences of External “Success”
How To Stay Motivated...
How To Be Productive…
How To Achieve…
and combined them with my new-found lessons of internal success…
How To Communicate Clearly
How To Create Authentically...
How To Keep Confidence...
