Chude Jideonwo, host of the viral talk show #WithChude and CEO of Joy Inc., has revealed the cover of his highly anticipated memoir, How Depression Saved My Life.
The book offers a deeply personal look at Jideonwo’s journey through depression and the healing that followed. He reflected on how writing the book gave him a renewed sense of closure and purpose.
“When I finished writing my book, it healed me again. And then I knew, without a shadow of a doubt, that the world desperately needs this message. When I heard the word clearly to write this book, I knew the world needed it. The second confirmation came when my publishers gave me my first traditional publishing contract in 25 years, and I knew again when I was done. I also knew I was done when I finished writing and threw my head back and wept,” he shared.
Speaking about the moment he first saw the cover, Jideonwo described his reaction as overwhelming.“When I saw it, I was screaming. First, I love it so hard — so hard. And secondly, I am too excited about this book. This is the most important message to the world today,” he said.
How Depression Saved My Life will be released globally in August, “Pre-order is now open because my publishers are exceptional. You can pre-order from howdepressionsavedmylife.com or book.withchude.com,” he shared.
Jideonwo also mentioned that he would hold off on discussing the book publicly until after the much-anticipated #WithChude Live event, which is being billed as Africa’s biggest talk concert. The event will feature high-profile personalities including Chimamanda Adichie, Funke Akindele, Bovi Ugboma, Pastor Jerry Eze and more.
