Synopsis

In 2001, Quamé, the author of the book The Power of Letting Go, made a huge life decision to leave his Ph.D. program to start a music recording company in Los Angeles. He returned to his former neighborhood located in the Crenshaw District, where he reunited with neighborhood friends as well as making new connections from Hollywood to Calabasas. Falling on hard times from homelessness to a health crisis, Quamé learned priceless lessons from people he interacted with, self-help books and the "do or die" environment of Crenshaw. Upon realizing that the path he was on did not reflect the "real" him, Quamé went back to Berkeley, California where he continued to practice the principles and lessons that were magically transforming his life. The Power of Letting Go offers readers three core principles that Quamé believes are essential to discovering the "real" you, leading to true success, inner joy and purpose.
