Worthy

Jada Pinkett Smith

'It's a shame that Pinkett Smiths marriage has taken up so much attention because, as Worthy shows, it's far from the most interesting thing about her' Hadley Freeman, Sunday Times Magazine

'In Worthy, Jada shares her deeply moving journey to self-worth. With bravery and compassion, she reflects on her childhood, honors her heartbreaks, celebrates her triumphs, and makes peace with her shadows. By demonstrating the power in owning every piece of her story, Jada encourages every woman to do the same' Sheryl Sandberg, Founder, LeanIn.org an OptionB.org

'Jada Pinkett Smith's Worthy is an invitation to a soul-nourishing journey. It's as if she's sitting right there with you, sharing her experiences, and inspiring you to step into your power. Worthy beautifully underscores self-discovery, introspection, and the pursuit of purpose# Jay Shetty, author of 8 Rules of Love
