An inspiring, no-holds-barred account of one woman'squest to find her true self.Shelley Bridgman is an award-winning stand-up comic, actor, scriptwriter, professional speaker and a leading psychotherapist - but it wasn't always this way.First she survived the hedonistic sixties with the inevitable round of clubbing, fashion and drugs; then she made the most of the seventies, travelling to over sixty countries whilst running a travel business - but it was the eighties that tested her to her limits.

It is also testament to a profoundly touching love story that has lasted over forty years.
