The remains and fragments and broken pieces that are left behind from either the poor decisions or actions taken in life. The wreck or plenty of wrecks for that matter has consequences and repercussions when we go the wrong way. Kareem, has went the wrong direction for most of his life causing wreckage due to his alcoholism and addiction. As a recovering alcoholic, he exposes himself to you with very raw, uncut, and authentic detail how the self centered disease of addiction left plenty of wreckage behind. This wreckage was there for years from resentments, to a blinding ego, selfishness, lack of accountability, lack of awareness, low self esteem, lack of emotional maturity and the list goes on.

Free to be ourselves, free to love, free to accept ourselves and others and free to give. Kareem only wishes to share with you his experience, strength and hope by being vulnerable and authentic. He is a published author, poet, writer and speaker who is striving each day to evolve and grow.

Hey Wreckage Clearers today we discuss being open minded and how this is key to personal growth and development and even recovery. I will use the analogy of the baby a lot in this conversation because that is how I thought and how I was. I was just like a baby. Truthfully most of us are still acting like babies and it is time to clear the wreckage and grow. With that, I share with you how I am growing and how my mind became open to see further and how it broadened my horizons. Which I hope that through our conversation you can learn from the experience I share with you.
