1. 1. The Beauty Of Living Twice

   

   An intimate memoir of survival and reinvention, this narrative traces a near-fatal stroke and painstaking recovery alongside memories of a hardscrabble upbringing, meteoric stardom, and the power imbalances of Hollywood. Candid and unsparing, it confronts trauma and abuse, examines motherhood, friendship, faith, and activism, and reflects on how a rewired brain reshapes identity, purpose, and joy—ultimately celebrating resilience and the hard-won freedom of living life on one’s own terms.
