About this listen
A revealing account of Australian supermodel Elle Macpherson’s extraordinary life of celebrity under pressure of relentless perfectionism and traumas of cancer and addiction.
Elle shares her hard-earned, well-learned insights and understandings, empowering us all to discover our own uniqueness and life purpose.
In the dazzling world of fashion, Elle Macpherson is synonymous with elegance and timeless beauty. Her inimitable, ‘give-it-a-go’ spirit underpins all her achievements as an iconic supermodel, businesswoman, and wellness advocate—a remarkable career concealing profound inner challenges.
A powerful journey of personal transformation and a meditation on public image, self-image, and the meaning of real beauty, Elle peels back decades of curated perfection to share rare wisdom and intimate, messy realness from life in the limelight, including:
- Elle’s early life-lessons as a teenager modeling in 1980s New York building a remarkable career with professionalism, strong values, real results and her breakthrough opportunity with Sports Illustrated
- A meteoric rise to fame as a runway model for iconic designers like Azzedine Alaïa and Calvin Klein and actress in Hollywood films like Sirens and Batman & Robin
- Nuanced reflections on relationships, divorces and the delights of raising her two sons.
- Previously undisclosed traumas with addiction, burnout, overall mental, emotional, and physical health—and the startling realization that gave her life new meaning
This open-hearted book reveals the authentic journey of personal transformation that empowered Elle to prevail over adversities, illness and inner conflicts. Told with Elle’s irrepressible humor and honesty, Elle offers a wise perspective on resilience, recovery, self-trust and authentic love that empowers readers to value their own uniqueness, embrace life, and love unconditionally.

Brooke Shields has spent a lifetime in the public eye. Growing up as a child actor and model, her every feature was scrutinized, her every decision judged. Today Brooke faces a different kind of scrutiny: that of being a “woman of a certain age.” And yet, for Brooke, the passage of time has brought freedom. At fifty-nine, she feels more comfortable in her skin, more empowered and confident than she did decades ago in those famous Calvin Kleins. Now, in Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed to Get Old, she’s changing the narrative about women and aging.

Barry loved three things the most in the world—her son, Max, her husband, Bruce, and her job as the mayor of Nashville . . . until she lost two of them. Her monumental lapse in judgment led to a painful public reckoning and the fall of her rising political career. A battle with substance-use disorder robbed her of her only child. Grief, pride, shame, longing, and resentment nearly destroyed her marriage. Barry has to start again, the right way, with humility, hope, and a wicked sense of humor.

In Bad Mormon, Heather Gay pulled back the veil on her orthodox adolescence and marriage in the Mormon Church, and the painful process of leaving it all behind. Becoming a successful business owner and reality TV star gave the single mom of three a second lease on life. After years of living in an insular bubble, Heather emerged bright-eyed, eager to take on the world…no matter how ill-equipped her upbringing may have left her. Now, in this provocative and laugh-out-loud funny book, the mother of three proves that she isn’t just a Bad Mormon; she’s also a Good Time Girl!

Beauty is Her Thing…
…i invariably look for ways to achieve an esthetic quality to improve things” |
So thankful for my monthly credits with audible.
I chose this one this month due to 90’s memories of supermodels ( they need to bring those back).
Love the bareful details expressed with Elle’s early journey in the states. The bold steps she took. Her value of principles. Thank you Elle for sharing your life.
