Meet J. Emanuel

Javan Emanuel Richardson, an emerging leader, executive strategist, and evolving coach was raised in a family deeply committed to ministry. At four years old, he would sit outside and speak with a spatula serving as his microphone. His grandmother listened, encouraging him to remain humble, obedient and focused. He’s lived by these principles and recognizes that they’ve been instrumental to his achievements. He enjoys spending time with his family, especially his nephew Eli & nieces Elani, and Harleigh -- they are his pride & joy. With a burning passion for achievement, Javan’s ardent desire is to help the next generation tap into their potential and recognize unparalleled success in every area of life. Trained under the tutelage of Dr. Haywood Parker and Dr. Wanda Frazier-Parker, he now walks out his calling as a public speaker, author, visionary, executor, and innovator inspiring audiences both in ministry and the marketplace. His charismatic style delivers practical truths that empower his listeners to live authentically and grow spiritually -- in fact Javan released his first book in 2019 entitled "Your Wealth Is In Your Hands". In 2022, Javan released his first coursebook "Write the Story, Make it Plain" providing aspiring authors essential steps to compose their book. November 2023, he released his newest book "The Blessings of Heartbreak". Javan holds a Bachelor's of Science in Criminal Justice from North Carolina Agriculture & Technical State University and a Master's of Science in Higher Education Administration from North Carolina Central University. He is currently pursuing his Doctorate of Education with a concentration in Student Affairs from Liberty University. Javan loves academia and has held positions at Duke University, Wake Forest University, & North Carolina State University. Along with public speaking Javan is also a member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc.
