Publisher's Summary

“Thursday morning.One hundred pounds overweight, no man in sight, and rounding the bend to 57 years old - a full-blown catastrophe.”

What happens when you realize you’ve had the career of your dreams, but you don’t have the life of your dreams? This was the stark reality facing Sheri Salata when she left her 20-year stint at The Oprah Winfrey Show, Harpo Studios, and the OWN network. She had dedicated decades to her dream job, and loved (almost) every minute of it, but had left the rest of her life gathering dust on the shelf. After years of telling other people’s makeover stories, Sheri decided to “produce” her own life transformation. And this meant revisiting her past, excavating its lessons, and boldly reimagining her future.

In this audiobook, she invites listeners along for the ride - detoxing in the desert, braving humiliation at Hollywood’s favorite fitness studio, grappling with losses, reinventing friendships, baring her soul in sex therapy, and more. Part cautionary tale, part middle-of-life rallying cry, Sheri’s stories offer profound inspiration for personal renewal.

Raw, honest and inspirational

I really enjoyed Sheri’s inspirational story. She is clearly a successful woman who has done her own inner work and yet discovered as we all do that there is more work to be done. She achieved great professional success at some personal expense but rather than let that be the story she opted to reinvent her life. I too am a believer that there has gotta be something more and her book inspires me to continue to refuse to settle for less.

Well written memoir

Thoroughly enjoyed it. A great story about someone completely changing their life. I just wish I had the time and the money to do the same.

Blah blah blah

I like her podcast, but this book just seems like more of the same. Some parts were interesting, but mostly it felt like recycled self-help that we've heard a million times before.
