Sinopse

When Shonda Rhimes forced herself to step outside and expose herself; when she learned to explore, embrace, and love her truest self, her life began to improve. To do so, she spent a year saying one word: Yes. The Year of Saying Yes is an inspirational book from the acclaimed and award-winning creator and executive producer of the television hits Grey's Anatomy , Private Practice , and Scandal, and executive producer of How to Get Away with Murder .

Shonda Rhimes is the creator and producer of some of the most innovative and audacious shows on television today. Her iconic characters are bold women who speak their minds. So, who would suspect her of being introverted? That she hired a publicist just to avoid public appearances? That she suffered panic attacks before giving interviews?

Until six words changed everything. "You never say yes to anything." Those were the words, spoken by Shonda's sister during Thanksgiving dinner. This phrase was what led the author to rethink her lifestyle and write the bestselling book The Year of Yes.

Shonda, a successful woman, mother, and respected author, has always been shy and introverted. When creating her "Year of Yes," the author decided to overcome her shyness and take on the challenge of spending a year saying "yes" to every opportunity that arose.

Shonda's "yeses" ranged from taking better care of her health to accepting talk show invitations and public speaking engagements. She also took a difficult step: saying yes to self-love and empowerment.

The Year of Yes is a humorous and inspiring account of the period that forever changed Shonda's life. The author offers a lighthearted glimpse into her personal and professional life. Furthermore, Shonda shows how immersing herself in the "Year of Yes" transformed both and provides the reader with the motivation to do the same in their own lives.

"Charming, funny, and inspiring stories... A book about how she learned to take care of herself and how you can too. Meet your new life coach, Shonda Rhimes." - Vulture
