In this 10th-anniversary edition of Shonda Rhimes' poignant hilarious and confessional
call-to-arms Hollywood's most powerful woman - executive producer of Grey's Anatomy Scandal
Bridgerton Queen Charlotte and more - revisits her galvanizing New York Times bestseller
and reveals the continuing power that saying YES has had on her life and how it can change
yours too. With three hit shows on television and three children at home Shonda Rhimes had
lots of good reasons to say no when invitations arrived. Hollywood party? No. Speaking
engagement? No. Media appearances? No. And to an introvert like Shonda who describes herself
as 'hugging the walls' at social events and experiencing panic attacks before press interviews
there was a particular benefit to saying no: nothing new to fear. Then came Thanksgiving 2013
when Shonda's sister Delorse muttered six little words at her: You never say yes to anything.
Profound impassioned and laugh-out-loud funny in Year of Yes Shonda Rhimes reveals how saying
YES changed - and saved - her life. And inspires readers everywhere to change their own lives
with one little word: Yes. In this celebratory and expanded anniversary edition you'll find
more wildly candid and transformational chapters that reveal how the mega-talented Shonda once
a self-described introvert achieved badassery worthy of a Shondaland character - and how you
can too. In Shonda's own words 'This book is the same as before but it also is not. It is
brand-new. It has changed. Transformed. Evolved. Grown. Just like me.'
