“As a psychological consultant for business and personal pursuits, I recognized that Shem El identified his calling early and nurtured it. I have known him personally and professionally for close to 20 years and can personally attest to his mastery of the subject matter and his ability to teach complex ideas in easy to understand concepts. He really knows how to keep adults and youth engaged in the subject matter. Do yourself a favor and attend one of his lectures.”
