Helping you develop the strength to fulfill your potential.
What We Do
Kajoor (Kah-jore) is a company with one goal in mind: help people develop the strength to fulfill their potential. A person can find this source of strength in different areas of life, but it almost always aligns with that individual’s purpose. These are things not always found on accident but as the result of an intentional search for personal meaning. As Holocaust survivor and psychologist Viktor Frankl says,
“Ultimately, man should not ask what the meaning of his life is, but rather he must recognize that it is he who is asked.”
What we offer is an all-encompassing online program that aims to help five groups of people:
Patients that are transitioning from inpatient to outpatient behavioral health
Emergency room crisis counselors seeking to improve the resources provided with safety planning
Those looking for an unmatched collection of mental health resources, medication education, life-building resources, and research-based behavioral health activities
Outpatient counselors looking to deepen their connection with patients and better understand their private response to crisis
Social workers that wish to connect themselves and their patients to the greatest and most accurate network of social services
I am a HUGE advocate for receiving proper and professional mental health treatment and recognize that even though The Program has the resources to support a large group of individuals seeking care, it is not a substitute for treatment. However, the depth of difference a sense of purpose can play in a person’s recovery should not be easily dismissed.
Living your life with intention is not always about the circumstances of your life, but about the way you experience them. This program doesn’t aim to directly change these circumstances, but to help improve your experience of them.
What is “Kajoor”?
From 2018 to 2020, I had the distinct pleasure of working closely with the Marshallese people. Every day I spent with them I learned more about myself, kindness, love, and strength. Learning their language provided a new context to common English words - one of which was the word Kajoor.
The Marshallese to English Dictionary defines it with the words “strong, force, power, might” with additional use in the Marshallese translation of the Bible in place of words like resilience and strive.
Thus, Kajoor became the obvious name for the company with The Program we offer being designed to help develop strength and resilience in those who embrace it. Something you’ll find specifically in our page of Merchandise is the word Kōkajoor (Kuh-kah-jore). Though very similar to Kajoor, the “Kō-” prefix changes the word from strong to the action “to make strong”.
No matter where we are in our journey to a more fulfilled self, there is much for us to learn. While I think it is fair to describe ourselves as both strong and resilient, I much prefer the dynamic sense of becoming strong and growing resilient. Kajoor exists to help you find and develop the strength that you need.
