CPR for the Soul

How to Give Yourself a 20% Raise, Eliminate Your Debt, and Leave an Inheritance for Your Children’s Children

By: Shawn Rochester

Narrated by: Derrick E. Hardin

CPR for the Soul is a paradigm shifting new book which not only changes how you think about your finances but also creates a new mission and purpose built on leaving a legacy. The entire book is built around three fundamental pillars of stewardship, ownership, and legacy - without which, there can be no wealth accumulation. The central theme is about understanding and implementing the steps necessary to position yourself to leave an inheritance for your children’s children.

The ideas, tools and lessons contained in this book are powerful, life changing, immediately applicable in your everyday life and consistent with our deeply held belief in leaving a legacy. Not only will you learn how to (1) give yourself the equivalent of a 20 percent raise, (2) completely eliminate your debt, and (3) maximize your assets at retirement, but you will also learn how you enhance your ability to give generously to those in need.

CPR for the Soul serves as an essential tool in the arsenal of individuals, couples, newlyweds, families, students, congregations and other organizations who are committed to creating inter-generational wealth based on solid financial and scriptural principles. Since there can be no legacy without ownership, and no ownership without stewardship, you will find that the lessons learned in this book and the new mindset gained, will not only change your actions and but also your financial outcomes in truly profound ways.

Good Read (Listening)

Mr. Rochester is well a rounded author on black wealth in America. His past and discussions in areas of black wealth is very thorough in establishing black wealth and leaving a legacy the future for our children's children.

Excellent! Must Read/Listen

I ordered the audiobook, and I also ordered the paperback to read and take notes. This book should be required reading for all Black Families. It is full of practical advice that is easy to put into action. Thank you for teaching us how to fish! Next Up: “The Black Tax” by Shawn D. Rochester.

precise strategies outlined clearly

The best information in the easiest format to upload into your financial behaviors to render multi generational success. It becomes clear that slavery took our children away and it is our duty to achieve wealth in order to keep future generations from being lost. Due to so many Blacks in America having a slave mentality exacerbated by Christianity, the use of Biblical Scripture breaks the notion that we are to be poor and just rely on God.

Great Listen!

I loved how Shawn used scriptures to correlate the points he was making! Great and insightful book to learn financial literacy.
