Description
2020 International Book Awards Finalist in Spirituality: Inspirational
“The Joy of Uber Driving is a wild, nostalgic ‘soul retrieval’ road trip that weaves true tales from her Uber driving experience (at age seventy-eight!) blended with her life-review-in-the-rearview-mirror stories. It skillfully blends humor, warmth, pathos, insight, and inspiration . . . and, at the very least, will give you an enormous respect for your next Uber driver.”
—Kelly Sullivan Walden, dream expert and best-selling author of Chicken Soup for the Soul: Dreams & Premonitions
“Uber drivers and passengers will enjoy the escapades of Yamini Redewill, as riders reveal their deep inner longings in the backseat of her Prius. Sometimes ‘therapist’ and sometimes ‘cheerleader,’ Redewill touches hearts as she shares stories from the lives of her passengers, along with her own roller coaster journey to fulfillment.”
—Randy Peyser, author of Crappy to Happy
“In The Joy of Uber Driving, Yamini Redewill shares the wisdom that comes from living a full life of heart-centered passion, as well as the self-awareness that has allowed her to be the happy, confident, creative, and young ‘old broad’ she now finds herself to be. . . . A deftly written, thought provoking, and inherently fascinating read from cover to cover.”
—Midwest Book Review
