Connecting the Disconnected The Journey of Eze Akinyemi Visceral Connections Coach and Cultural Explorer
In this inspiring video, join Eze Akinyemi on his remarkable journey of self-discovery and cultural connection. Eze, also known as the Visceral Connections Coach (VCC), is a passionate advocate for reconnecting African descendants to the culture embedded in their DNA. His nearly decade-long endeavor culminated in the creation of his heartfelt book, "Found My People."
As Eze embarked on his first trip to Africa in 2013, visiting Nigeria and finally stepping foot on the hallowed Badagry beach, he experienced a truly visceral moment. Tears streaming down his face, he realized that he and his daughter were the first members of their family to return to African soil after being forcefully uprooted from the continent centuries ago. It was a profound revelation that ignited his mission to embrace his heritage.
During his journey, Eze encountered native Nigerian Igbo and Yoruba people who recognized elements of their own culture within him. Through a DNA test, it was confirmed that Eze is a descendant of both the Igbo and Yoruba people, two of Nigeria's largest ethnic groups. Additionally, his mother's side revealed his connection to the Fante people of Ghana. To honor his heritage, Eze legally changed his name to reflect his rich ancestry.
Beyond his passion for cultural reconnection, Eze is also dedicated to helping individuals and small businesses thrive. As a VCC and owner of a small to medium enterprise (SME), he brings his exceptional training skills to guide and inspire others. Eze's leadership abilities were recognized during his tenure as Chapter Chair for SCORE, a business counseling service under the US Small Business Administration. Through his innovative thinking and management style, he garnered national attention and achieved the esteemed status of "Chapter Chair Emeritus." Eze also served as a Small Business Development Center Board Advisor, further exemplifying his commitment to fostering entrepreneurial success.
Join Eze Akinyemi on his transformative journey of discovering his roots, reconnecting with his heritage, and empowering others through cultural exploration. Prepare to be inspired and moved by his powerful story and unwavering dedication.
