Along the way she picks up treasures, smashes old patterns of behaviour, and works out a code for how to live and what life's priorities should be.

A memoir and a guide for those in a similar scenario, or indeed anyone feeling crushed and exhausted by modern life inews.co.uk
This book is a real gem for therapists to recommend to clients. A rich introduction to some of the best self-help strategies from a trusted and much-loved icon. All the more powerful to read how Miranda discovered them via her own health crises; a painful read were it not softened by her comedic take on life's trials.
