Maye Musk became an international supermodel and speaker in her sixties but things were not always so perfect or glamorous in her life. Maye suffered an abusive relationship, dealt with weight issues as a plus-size model, overcame ageism in the modeling industry; and established a lifelong career as a respected dietitian. Find out how she managed to survive, raise three successful children, become a supermodel, dietitian, and an international bestselling author all on her own in this episode.
