Brooke Shields uses her powers for good in this book, particularly by encouraging people to advocate for ourselves in health situations. As she says, she may not be a medical expert, but she is a Brooke Shields expert, so she knows when something is not right. Unfortunately, she’s had a bit of experience with doctors not listening to her. 

I was expecting some humour and wisdom, but this book exceeded my expectations! I appreciated the advice about trying new things but also being OK with giving things up.

There is a bit of promotion of Brooke Shields’ haircare for menopausal women, but it’s not too obnoxious.

I read the book, but the audiobook would be really good too, since Brooke reads it herself.
