"Real freedom is not having unlimited choices, but rather living a life of purpose that empowers others to be who they can be. Shaka Senghor shares with us what he learned after a lifetime of adversity and decades of imprisonment: freedom isn't the ability to do whatever you want-it's an internal decision to be grateful and present in all circumstances." - Jim Murphy, New York Times bestselling author, Inner Excellence "With deft storytelling and raw emotion, Senghor proves, once more, that the most ordinary of us can become extraordinary, when we choose courage and conviction in the face of unimaginable grief." -Joanne Molinaro, Creator, The Korean Vegan

But these prisons have doors. Drawing from his extraordinary journey from incarceration to New York Times bestselling author, resilience expert, and entrepreneur, Shaka Senghor reveals the mindset and proven practices that transformed his life-and can help anyone achieve their wildest dreams. 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. 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 profound lessons learned along his remarkable journey from solitary to the C-suite, he provides more than inspiration-he delivers a proven roadmap for transformation. Using daily practices like journaling, meditation, mindfulness, and creative expression, you'll turn your vision into action, discovering how to break free from whatever holds you back so you can step into your true potential. How To Be Free is your invitation to embrace joy, reclaim your narrative, and unlock the doors to the life you deserve.
About the Author: Shaka Senghor is an inspirational speaker, entrepreneur, and author of the New York Times bestselling books Writing My Wrongs and Letters to the Sons of Society. A sought-after resilience expert and recognized "Soul Igniter" in Oprah's inaugural SuperSoul 100, Senghor has captivated and transformed global audiences with his extraordinary journey from incarceration to influence. Through raw authenticity and profound insight, he doesn't just share his story-he equips others with the exact resilience practices that fueled his own remarkable transformation, proving that reinvention isn't just possible-it's within everyone's reach.
