Funny and deeply personal Sorry Not Sorry recounts Glee star Naya Rivera's successes and
missteps urging young women to pursue their dreams and to refuse to let past mistakes define
them. Navigating through youth and young adulthood isn't easy and in Sorry Not Sorry Naya
Rivera shows us that we're not alone in the highs lows and in-betweens. Whether it's with
love and dating career and ambition friends or gossip Naya inspires us to follow our own
destiny and step over--or plod through--all the crap along the way. After her rise and fall
from early childhood stardom barely eking her way through high school a brief stint as a
Hooters waitress going through thick and thin with her mom manager and resurrecting her
acting career as Santana Lopez on Glee Naya emerged from these experiences with some key life
lessons: Sorry: - All those times I scrawled I HATE MY MOM in my journal. So many moms and
teenage daughters don't get along--we just have to realize it's nothing personal on either
side. - At-home highlights and DIY hair extensions. Some things are best left to the experts
and hair dye is one of them. - Falling in love with the idea of a person instead of the actual
person. Not Sorry: - That I don't always get along with everyone. Having people not like you is
a risk you have to take to be real and I'll take that over being fake any day. - Laughing at
the gossip instead of getting upset by it. - Getting my financial disasters out of the way
early--before I was married or had a family--so that the only credit score that I wrecked was
my own. Even with a successful career and a family that she loves more than anything else Naya
says There's still a thirteen-year-old girl inside of me making detailed lists of how I can
improve who's never sure of my own self-worth. Sorry Not Sorry is for that thirteen-year-old
in all of us.
