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.

AMAZING story told by Elle, a MUST listen, truly inspiring

This book, second only to the Bible in my 2024 listening experience, delivers powerful truths that inspire self-motivation and reinforce one’s self-worth. It effectively channels energy towards achieving success, making it a transformative resource for personal growth. The insights provided encourage readers to embrace their potential and pursue their goals with renewed vigor. So impactful and encourages a positive change!

Way Better Than Expected

I was surprised to find this book extraordinarily relatable, and offer a depth of experience & reflection that was grounding and inspiring. The book details Elle's experiences throughout her big life. That in itself was eye opening, in relationship to understanding the author, but also more fully understanding life, and even plenty of material to reflect on myself & my own choices. The book is full of wisdom & grace Elle has gleened from meeting and dealing with her "blind spots". We all have them. What differentiates people is really how we deal with our said blind spots. I love her fierce independence, despite her tendency to lean on those who couldn't handle being learned on. I loved hearing about her innovation, business ventures & another women's perspective on these things. One of the many things I took from this book is to THINK BIGGER & love more fully. thank you for sharing your journey with us Elle!

Thank you for your ambition!

Elle: Thank you for sharing who you were have been and who you all along the way. Your truth has brought such a sense of calm to me. Acceptance in who I am and acceptance of everyone for right where they are in their lives. And, goals. Helpful and kind Goals.

A story of resilience. A beautiful life story

Elle takes you on a journey and a fellow recovery success story. Love Elle’s soothing voice

I don’t remember downloading that book. And one day I was driving for multiple hours looking for something to listen and I saw this audiobook available that I bought. At the beginning I was not sure where we going, but the last part of that book is amazing.

Elle’s honesty is refreshing

This book is a very interesting and candid. I enjoyed it very much, it’s like a friend is telling you their life story.

Honest and beautiful.

I have an autoimmune disease and have modeled some too so I felt a kindred spirit.

Wonderful story

I love Elle’s story and her dedication to her beliefs. I really enjoyed hearing her perspectives on faith. Plus her voice is so calming!!

Inspiring

Elle, Thank you for writing this and sharing your wisdom. Your story and experiences are inspiring.

Such a great written book! Inspiring!

A must read (or listen)! It’s incredibly well written and never dull. If you get the chance, download the audiobook too t’s amazing to hear her recount her early adventures in modeling. I loved discovering that Paulina Porizkova, my all time favorite model, was her roommate and best friend such a cool detail to read and hear about. Overall, it’s a fantastic book and an absolute must!
