Diane von Furstenberg created the iconic wrap dress in her twenties and built her namesake company DVF into one of the most recognizable fashion brands in the world. More than fifty years later, as she approaches 80, she's entering a new chapter — with a lifetime of lessons to share.

Diane opens up about the choices she made as a working mother, why guilt and fear are not options, the mistakes she's made along the way, and what it takes to like the person you've become. Diane shares: How to build the kind of self-belief that carries you through every stage of life Why the most important relationship you'll ever have is the one you have with yourself How to stop comparing yourself to other people and own who you are Why guilt and fear should never drive your decisions What motherhood taught her about raising independent children without losing yourself Why independence has always mattered more to her than money How to learn from mistakes without letting them define you Why kindness is a currency — and how it compounds over time What getting older has taught her about confidence, clarity and becoming more yourself
