Publisher's Summary

"Warm, honest and true - A Woman Makes a Plan is full of insight as well as a good dose of humor, offering readers a lifetime of hard-won advice." (Diane Von Furstenberg)

The international supermodel shares personal stories and lessons learned from a life of "living dangerously - carefully"

Maye Musk is a fashionable, charming, jet-setting supermodel with a fascinating and tight-knit circle of family and friends - and is 71 years old. But things were not always so easy or glamorous - she became a single mom at 31, struggling through poverty to provide for her three children; dealt with weight issues as a plus-size model and overcame ageism in the modeling industry; and established a lifelong career as a respected dietitian, all the while starting over in eight different cities across three countries and two continents. But she made her way through it all with an indomitable spirit and a no-nonsense attitude to become a global success at what she calls the "prime of her life."

As everyone who follows her obsessively on social media knows, Maye is a fount of frank and practical advice on how the choices you make in every decade can pay off in surprising, exciting ways throughout your life. In A Woman Makes a Plan, Maye shares experiences from her life conveying hard-earned wisdom on career (the harder you work, the luckier you get), family (let the people you love go their own way), health (there is no magic pill), and adventure (make room for discovery, but always be ready for anything). You can't control all that happens in life, but you can have the life you want at any age. All you have to do is make a plan.

An Inspiring Book for Anyone

It's not surprising Maye Musk's children are all high achievers, having learned from the best "overcomer" never to give up. This woman is inspiring on so many levels and makes me much less afraid of the decades to come. Like Maye, I hope to make my best years the ones that are ahead of me.

Inspiring ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

As a young woman I found this book to be raw, detailed and inspirational. It encompasses, at times, brutal honesty with the encouragement to keep going on with life -even if it’s not what you initially had planned. This is a fantastic audio book because the authors voice is also very soothing and calming. “It’s better to be interesting than beautiful” -Maye Musk.

She is so lovely

I enjoyed to listen to her while I am taking a walk or working. It is just so relaxing to listen to her. Lots of encouragement and inspiration. Shows how much a woman can do when she has kids to take care of.
