She shares stories of her father, a Vietnam vet who was bowed but never broken by life's challenges, and of her mother, who survived violence both in the home and on DC's volatile streets. Here, too, she opens up about her experiences as a single mother.

Today - as repeated attempts to “fix ourselves and our lives” fail - many of us face unprecedented fears about the future, struggle with unspeakable life tragedies, and sink under the belief that certain lives do not matter in our society. Others confront our epidemic of anxiety with fierce resistance, or “the fight to be right”, criticizing anyone and everyone just to end up stuck. In the face of such pervasive human suffering, New York Times best-selling author and legendary life coach Iyanla Vanzant challenges us: What if it’s not them - what if it’s you?

Being “shook” is more than a rap lyric for Charlamagne; it’s his mission to overcome. While it may seem like he is ahead of the game and should have nothing to worry about, he is still plagued by anxieties - fear of being weak; fear of being a bad dad; fear of being a worse husband; and, ultimately, fear of failure. Shook One chronicles his journey to beat back those fears and empowers you to no longer be held back from your potential.

Lala is very relateable!
Overall this was a good book. My only complaint is that I wish that Lala would have narrated it.
it's just my personal opinion that when someone is writing about their life and their process I want to hear their voice.
For example in Taraji P Henson's book she was the narrator . When she shared emotional experiences I cried and laughed too.

Inspiring, Informative, and Interesting
I enjoyed listening to her transition from a radio personality, to tv personality, to reality tv star, to producer, to successful business woman. She paid her respects to Cris Abrego for his mentorship and told what should be looked for in a mentor and how to become one. Last but not least she told how to get rid of toxic people and the type of people who should be in your life. I have no complaints and this is the best book I have read about someone's life and lecture on how to be successful.

I can feel my power growing.
I started listening to this book on my 4am drive to work as endless job for motivation. And Ive definitely found strength in this life story. I've been a supporter of Lala since Disturbing Da Peace/MTV/TRL days. I'm very proud of this woman and what she's achieved after going through many hardships. Man or Women can relate to this story of success and power.
Thank you Lala for lending great advice to a new generation. Your final two chapters really reminded how much POWER I have as a individual. 🙌🏾🤓👽
Final Note: My childhood self once heard these similar words of power and success from a popular 90's tv show about 6 teenagers with attitudes. 😂
