About
A gripping, at times painfully honest, and ultimately inspirational memoir from global superstar and creator of the Red Table Talk series Jada Pinkett Smith.
Jada Pinkett Smith was living what many would view as a fairy-tale of Hollywood success. But appearances can be deceiving, and as she felt more and more separated from her sense of self, emotional turmoil took hold. Sparing no detail, Worthy chronicles her life—from a rebellious youth running the Baltimore streets as an observer and participant in the drug trade, to the deep bond she shared with Tupac Shakur from the moment they met, to her move to Los Angeles and the successful career she built on her own terms, to becoming the wife of superstar Will Smith and mother to Jaden, Willow and bonus-mom to Trey . A rollercoaster from the depths of suicidal depression to the heights of self-acceptance and spiritual healing, Worthy is a woman’s journey to finding herself again.
In a media-driven landscape that crafts narratives for our celebrities, Smith shares herself in an intimate conversation with readers. She answers questions about her difficult childhood, her marriage, her parenting style, her career choices, and the intense scrutiny that followed “the slap.” An impactful and rare memoir that engages and educates, Worthy shows why adhering to the status quo has never been the plan for Jada Pinkett Smith and why labels and stories crafted by others strip women of their authenticity. Worthy teaches us who Jada is, and how to embrace our most lovable qualities. Complete with thought-provoking writing prompts and meditations on how to discover who we really are and nourish our self-worth.
It's getting hot in here.
When you're a kid, the best compliment a teacher can give you is being called smart. When you were called "smart as a whip," "bright as a button," or simply "a smart cookie," it made your year. However, in a world of smartphones, smartwatches, smart TVs, and even flippin' smart light bulbs, the meaning of smart has changed..
Remember the good old days when being smart meant you knew all the world capitals, could recall every World Cup Springbok and where they were from, or could recite the periodic table elements like they were the lyrics to your favourite song?.
But you have to admit, smart technology is kind of cool. Or in the case of today's deal on a smart heater, it's kind of hot. With the AENO Premium Eco Smart Heater, keeping toasty is just a tap away.
