"I am passionate about learning and sharing knowledge with my people. Seeing my village progress and develop feeds my soul. Working with young people fuels my spirit. "
- Kemi Abifarin
My name is Kemi Abifarin and I am a wholistic entrepreneur.
My work, passions, diet, spirituality, artistry, even my physical workouts are all interconnected. Every minute of my life is connected to the same story: good character, growth, love for my community, and organic living.
My work is rooted in the hands-on research that I have done in community centers, public schools, private practice, detention centers, four-year universities, community colleges, home school programming and various other events that I have either participated in or sponsored.
Despite everything that is going on in the world, I have still been able to see the greatness that exists in my people and I want to encourage, inspire, and invoke that energy on all levels. We have all of the tools that we need for our healing, our development, our resistance, our sustenance, and our progress. We just need to get together and explore all of our resources.
Our culture is our medicine. We are the "doctors" that possess our own remedies.
"I am a mother, a wife; an educator; an artist; a mentor; a consultant; a traditionalist, a visionary and an ambassador of the arts, education and culture"

I am an arts, culture, and education specialist with over 20 years of experience empowering learners of all ages. My passion lies in transforming leaning environments through arts-infused education and culturally relevant pedagogy, blending creativity, cultural awareness, and ancestral knowledge into every curriculum I design.
​
I’ve often been described as a "breath of fresh air" and someone whose energy, passion, and deep cultural wisdom inspire both students and educators. As a motivational and educational speaker, I love captivating audiences with innovative approaches to teaching and learning. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of developing programs like the ACE (Arts, Culture, and Education) curriculum and the Writes of Passage courses, as well as collaborating with organizations to enhance their literacy programs.
​
One of my proudest achievements is creating Afroliteracy, a wholistic approach to education that emphasizes cultural literacy, ancestral knowledge, creativity, and the lived experiences of students. My curriculum work has reached classrooms, online academies, and community outreach programs, all with the goal of fostering academic success, and a deep connection to cultural heritage.​
​
In addition to my work in education, I am deeply passionate about wellness—a journey that became personal as I sought natural solutions for my family’s health. I began using essential oils to help manage my son’s asthma, exploring their powerful ability to support respiratory health and overall well-being. For my daughter, I turned to naturopathic herbal remedies to address her skin challenges and anxiety, finding wholistic approaches that nurtured her body and mind.
​
Over the past ten years, I’ve studied herbal remedies, detox practices, and holistic care, weaving this knowledge into my everyday life. Now, I am fully committing to developing my practice, sharing the transformative power of these methods with others.
​
Storytelling is one of my greatest joys and I infused into everything I do. I call it "story-try"—an infusion of life, love, culture, tradition, rhythm, and song. Through my stories, I aim to connect people, inspire positive self-narratives, and help others discover the power within themselves.
​
I believe deeply in the healing power of culture and the tools we carry within us—our words, stories, families, and personal medicines. My mission is to empower learners to embrace their resilience, cultural roots, and potential. Whether in the classroom, on stage, or through my curriculum and wellness initiatives, I am committed to inspiring others and eluvating everyone in my community to new heights.
