Master of Me

From the award-winning, multi-hyphenate global entertainer Keke Palmer comes the inspiring true story of her journey to understanding her genuine value.

Right when it seemed like all the pieces were coming together and Keke was living her dream life, her world got derailed. She had put in the hard work, she had put in the sweat, her passion and heart had gotten her to where she had always wanted to be, yet she was faced with the hardest challenge yet and was forced to look inward to find an even greater depth and understanding of herself.

In her own raw and intimate words, Keke talks about everything including her struggles with boundaries, unconditional love, forgiveness, and worthiness. She walks us through how enduring the challenges that come our way leads to true performance, power, and purpose.

In this exhilarating, deeply poignant, and often laugh-out-loud book, Lauren Keyana Palmer gets real about life, career, and spiritualty. She talks about the tools she has developed to take the reins, harness her vulnerability, and recognize her ownership and mastery over her own life to turn her personal power into major power. With her unique blend of humor, empathy, and truth, Keke details her journey back to herself as she finds a new center within motherhood, career, and relationships.

They said, "Jack of all Trades, Master of None."
She said "No, I am the Master."
"Of Me."
