Yamini Redewill is an Uber driver in San Francisco--one of a growing number of rideshare drivers around the world. What makes her unique is that shes a seventy-nine-year-old single woman who views her Uber driving as a form of spiritual practice!
The Joy of Uber Drivingchronicles the unexpected corkscrew twists and turns Redewill encounters on the road to love and happiness. How could she know that all those fabulous dreams she cherished as a younger woman were just illusions on the way to reality and would vanish like dust in the wind? But ultimately, her wild ride through life--which includes obsessive love on Catalina; sex, drugs, and alcohol in Hollywood; eleven years of celibacy in Buddhism, and Tantric sex and spirituality in India--helps her wend her way to her authentic self and to creative fulfillment in the winter of her life. InThe Joy of Uber Driving, 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.

Dedication

At this time, it has become clear to me that I wrote this book as an incentive for women who feel abused, unworthy, and unable to defend themselves against the misogynous tyranny that has existed for centuries. The fact that it has become the big news of the day fits perfectly with my lifes purpose and the work I have done through my art as my contribution to the awakening of our society toward justice, equality, and self-love.

I dedicate this book to the #MeToo movement, even though I claim complicity as a victim because of my upbringing, which blinded me to the truth of this inequity. My victimhood ran very deep and affected every aspect of my life unknowingly until my life lessons and spiritual teachers led me to the truth of who I am. I hope there will be some who recognize something of themselves in my story.

I also dedicate this book to the Uber Corporation, which has provided myself and thousands of single women over fifty the opportunity to be self-sufficient in a totally equitable and supportive way.

The Joy of Uber Driving A Wild Ride to Self-Love - image 2

INTRODUCTION

A s an Uber driver since 2015, I realize that I have a special mission: to be a source of light and levity touching every one of my passengers with truth, humor, and unconditional love. I always thought I was going to do it on a grand scale, with dreams of fame and fortune as a singer/actress using beautiful words and lyrics written by someone else. But it was not meant to be. Instead, Im able to impact a few people at a time on a personal level with the love and wisdom Ive gained through years of conscious learning and practice. And now, Im using Uber to deliver my memoir interspersed with intriguing personal stories from my passengers that coincide with my own stories. Ive named each chapter after a song from the sixties, seventies, and eighties because of my deep love of music and the meaningful songs of that period.

Being an Uber driver has opened up a whole new world to me where I relate to people of all ages and ethnicities and recognize that they are me. I have witnessed real and meaningful transformations in short periods of time through our interactions. These sacred moments in time give me hope that humanity is malleable and open to becoming more and more conscious. It has also given me a vehicle for my own transformation in that Im able to stop myself from judging my riders or making assumptions about them before giving them a chance to reveal their true nature.
