The School of Greatness · Free People Are More Imprisoned Than Those Behind Bars | Shaka Senghor & Christian Howes · 22 Dec 2025 podcast

We're all these things.

And to tell that story.

And so once that happened, that book came out, people would come up with me and they would just tell me all type of stories.

And in the last couple of years, I've really been questioning what has been my purpose all along.

I thought it was to sell novels.

I haven't done a novel deal yet.

You know, I thought it was prison reentry.

That's really not what that was about for me.

That was about my friends are incarcerated.

what I realized is that my purpose in life is to help people find the door to their own personal freedom.

Like that's what I know with certainty.

There's like, there's a lot of things that

I don't know.

And there's a few things that I know with certainty.

And one of them is I am certain what I'm here to do in the world.

Absolutely.

And I think that's what, if people take nothing else from this conversation, what I would hope they would take from it is life as a metaphor.

We've done the hard work for the audience.

And we were physically incarcerated, and yet we found a freedom through artistic expression, through meditation, mindfulness, community, all the things that we've talked about.

Those are things that are replicable and can be easily modeled in any facet of life.
