In the dazzling world of fashion, Elle Macpherson is synonymous with elegance, grace and timeless beauty. Growing up in Sydney shaped her formative years, imbuing her with her inimitable 'give it a go' Aussie spirit, which has driven all she's done as an iconic model, businesswoman and wellness advocate.

At nineteen, Elle moved to New York, where she became a muse for prestigious photographers and designers, acted in a succession of film and TV roles, and co-founded Intimates - a lingerie collection that garnered global success. She moved to London with her partner and had her two beloved sons.

But behind the glamour and Elle's embrace of motherhood, she was struggling - with ever-present insecurities, growing anxiety and the exhaustion of melding parties, modelling, running a business and motherhood. She knew she must take steps to change her life - forever.

Elle embarked on a physical, emotional and spiritual journey which she remains on to this day, having overcome adversities and illness in the years since she made her unwavering commitment to authenticity. And now, in this soul-expanding book, branded with her irrepressible humour and spirit, she is ready to share her hard-won wisdoms, so that we might all flourish in self-growth, expanding, rebalancing and being our authentically unique selves.
