Summary

On today’s show we have actress, model, entrepreneur and mother Brooke Shields. Ever since her acting debut at 11 months old, she has lived her entire life in the spotlight. She shares what it was like growing up in the public eye, reveals how she got through the media scrutiny, and opens up about how she really feels about that infamous Barbara Walters interview. Brooke also talks about her own insecurities and what helped her stop comparing herself to others. Why just because you are able to do everything, doesn’t mean you should. Her tips on parenting. And how she is embracing her age instead of running from it, and how you can too! In September 2021, Brooke launched her own digital wellness brand “Beginning Is Now” which creates a supportive space for women over 40, inspiring women of every age to live their fullest lives on their own terms!
