Servant Leadership

Kemy Joseph, MS, EdS, MBE

As the founder of F.E.A.R.S. Advantage™, Kemy trains people to Transcend Prejudice by flipping the script on their privilege to unite and serve others, regardless of their skin color.

Most people see Kemy’s bright smile, but wouldn’t imagine the hardships behind it. Being raised in Miami, FL as a first-generation Haitian American, he lived in a single-parent household with nine siblings where poverty, violence, and racial inequity traumatized him at an early age. 

Growing up, he was socialized as a sexist, racist, homophobe, bigot, bully and criminal.

As an adult he’s had the amazing privilege to re-socialize himself into a human being — a healthy, educated black man who respects women, celebrates diversity and supports the equal rights of all people. His journey represents the healing that’s possible when we use negative emotions for positive change.

Kemy dreams of creating a world where we rise above segregation, hatred, and violence to heal our past traumas and free ourselves from suffering. In service to that vision, he works with hundreds of leaders in business and education — in addition to many Nobel Peace Prize Winners — to inspire global social justice initiatives.
