About this listen
A new offering from the author of the hugely successful Mother of Black Hollywood.
Walking in My Joy is a collection of electric stories by the one and only, super hilarious Jenifer Lewis. Her commentary on what’s happening in the world today, told through her outrageous real-life adventures, will have you laughing out loud, while her insightful messages touch your soul.
A self-described “traveling fool and nature freak,” Jenifer takes listeners with her all over the world, from Cape Town to Bali; Washington, DC, to the Serengeti; Mongolia to St. Petersburg; and Argentina to Antarctica to demonstrate how she walks in her joy by seeking pleasure in everyday encounters. Every step of the way you’ll be doubled over with laughter as she faints at the Obamas’ holiday party; awakens to a swollen face and has to go to the hospital during the height of the Covid pandemic; an alien visitation; a successful takedown of a conman; as well as meeting a handsome Maasai warrior and being chased by a Cape buffalo.
An actress, activist, and mental health advocate, Jenifer Lewis imparts ways to love yourself that will allow you to deflect negative energy and keep people who may come to take your joy in check. She stresses the importance of fully living to your greatest ambitions and taking the time to admire the world’s natural gifts. She also encourages embracing each other’s uniqueness as a way of finding societal healing. Walking in My Joy is a riveting and enthralling journey.
Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

Slow start but really gets you eventually
I struggled with the first few chapters; her saucy language was a bit much and the book felt a bit blasé. however when she starts talking about mr. conman, and her life growing up in Kinloch, both she and the book came fully alive. what a life she's lived and how unapologetic she is about it all. bravo bravo auntie...keep shining...love you too 😍

My favorite author
I read The Mother of Black Hollywood, and then listen to it on audiobook. Walking in my Joy is also fabulous - deeply moving, funny, and real.

An emotional journey
There is a lot of humour, but there is so much more to ponder. This is a very moving and thought-provoking book. The performance is very engaging and natural, which stands to reason. I haven't read her first book but now I want to. Highly recommend.
