Show Notes

Shaka Senghor is a New York Times best-selling author, a globally recognized leader in criminal justice reform, and an entrepreneur. Shaka joins us to discuss the path he took enlightenment while serving 19 years in prison, 7 of which were in solitary confinement. One of Oprah's Supersoul 100 alumni, Shaka's books 'Writing My Wrongs: Life, Death, and Redemption in an American Prison' and 'Letters to the Sons of Society: A Father's Invitation to Love, Honesty, and Freedom' have helped shift societal narratives around incarceration and trauma. He shares his journey of transformation and emphasizes the importance of exploring one's internal world, the power of personal dignity, and the need to confront ugly truths to move forward.
