Worthy
(Book)
Description
"Jada Pinkett Smith was living what many would view as a fairy-tale. But appearances can be deceiving, and as she felt more and more separated from her sense of self, emotional turmoil took hold. A rollercoaster from the depths of suicidal depression to the heights of self-acceptance and healing, Worthy is a woman's journey to finding herself again. Smith answers question about her childhood, marriage, parenting style, career choices, and the scrutiny that followed "the slap." Worthy shows why adhering to the status quo has never been the plan for Jada, why stories crafted by others strip women of the their authenticity, and how to embrace our most lovable qualities"--
