Leaving an invisible childhood behind, Laurie Marsden seized a rare chance to rise to the top of the fashion industry in the 1980s and 1990s, propelling her into a world of powerful players, hidden politics, and dark secrets.

In this searingly honest memoir, Laurie traces her journey from her modelling debut in New York City to whirlwind adventures in Milan, Paris, London, Australia, and Brazil.

An elite model in this iconic era of fashion, Laurie takes the reader on an inside journey, exploring the details of life in this glamorous business, its nit, its grit, and its dark side. As she navigates celebrity encounters and high-stakes jobs, the harsh reality of a 'pay-to-play' world clashes against her desire for connection and authentic love. And men, the good, the bad, the influential, are always present.

Now an activist at the forefront of the global #metoo reckoning, Laurie reflects with hard-won wisdom and the expert knowledge she now has as a therapist, on what it means-and what it takes-to maintain personal power and purpose as a woman in any decade.
