Sarah Ferguson opens her private world through diary pages and personal emails as she works to understand herself. Dr. Phil McGraw guides her through painful relationship patterns. Financial expert Suze Orman tackles the money problems that have plagued her for years. Life coach Martha Beck shows her how to release the harsh voice in her head that tears down her self-worth. These mentors and others become her support system as she confronts comfort eating, reckless spending, and the public scandals that have defined her reputation. Ferguson shares the specific advice each expert offered and reveals how their guidance changed her thinking. She believes her path from feeling completely lost to finding direction mirrors struggles many people face. The book presents both her lowest moments and the tools that helped her regain control of her future.
