How to Be Free

Embrace joy, reclaim your narrative, and achieve your wildest dreams in business and beyond with this inspiring hands-on guide to transforming your life with proven meditation, mindfulness, and creative exercises from Shaka Senghor, an extraordinary New York Times bestselling author and entrepreneur who overcame mental roadblocks and transformed his self-esteem after incarceration. When Shaka received his second parole denial after 18 years behind bars, he had a choice to make: surrender to despair or transform himself from within. He chose hope. Using daily practices like journaling, meditation, mindfulness, and creative expression, he turned his vision into action and discovered how to break free everything holding him back so he could step into his true potential. And when he did, he realized his greatest barriers existed within his own mind—past narratives, survivor's remorse, fear, and the inability to forgive. This awakening led him to discover universal truths about freedom that apply far beyond prison walls and transform every aspect of life—from deepening our relationships to achieving career success. Through raw and powerful storytelling, Shaka reveals how we all grapple with invisible chains that hold us back. Drawing from the profound lessons of his remarkable journey from solitary to the C-suite, he provides more than inspiration—he delivers a proven roadmap to transform your life.
