About this listen

"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"

OVER ONE MILLION COPIES SOLD


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.

InsideHook

“Who doesn’t want the most fabulous life ever? If that describes you but you think you’re ‘too old,’ then read A Woman Makes a Plan by Maye Musk. It’s a book of advice, but also a bio by a woman who’s had an interesting life and is willing to share it. Hint: speaking of share, it’s a great story to share across the ages.”

The beauty of this memoir is that Maye Musk sets a perfect example for every individual out there that age is just a number and nothing is impossible in this world if you are willing to work hard, being optimistic, and treating people with kindness, no matter what circumstances you live in.
I recommend this book to every single woman who is feeling low in her life, who is doubting herself that she is not capable or good enough to give it a shot.
And there's nothing a woman can't do.

I listened to it twice. Really . At 71 what can one ask .. A healthy successful life with all her kids well settled.. A woman who worked hard to get where she is. Inspite of being Elon Musk’s mom she has made an identity of herself working hard through out her life
