Bethenny Frankel is the IT girl of Bravo TV's hit reality series Bethenny Ever After. Originally cast as one of The Real Housewives of New York City, Bethenny came on the scene as the take-no-prisoners single girl who was in search of her Prince Charming. Not surprisingly, it didn't take too long for this charismatic housewife to realize she was much better off without her blood-thirsty cast mates. Nowadays, Bethenny is mixing up her trademark Skinnygirl Margaritas alongside her handsome hubby Jason, adorable baby girl Bryn, and feisty doggie Cookie.
In her latest release certain to hit the New York Times bestseller list, she trades in her signature healthy recipes to dish up some personal advice for those in search of the next best thing in life.

Holding nothing back, she pours out her heart with a "no excuses" attitude that challenges the reader to find a place of authenticity and self-realization. From Finding the Truth, Acting on It, to eventually Owning It, Bethenny gives her fans the tools to find the silver lining in a world filled with war and despair. Without a doubt, Bethenny Frankel has finally found her happily-ever- after.

Now Bethenny opens up and shares the obstacles she overcame and the great success she has enjoyed while discovering how to approach life from βA Place of Yes.β Bethennyβs path was not always clear as she overcame a difficult childhood, failed relationships, entrepreneurial efforts that never quite got off the ground, and lifelong money struggles. To deal with these challenges, Bethenny developed ten rules for pursuing her goals with authenticity and drive, including:
FIND YOUR TRUTH: Dig deep inside and figure out what is authentic for you, not anybody else.
ACT ON IT: You donβt have to have a master plan. But unless you do something, youβve done nothing.
EVERYTHINGβS YOUR BUSINESS: Treat every job, person, and experience as if it could lead to your next big opportunity.
OWN IT: If you do it, say it, think itβthen own it. Stand up for yourself and fully acknowledge who you really are.
Each rule is illustrated with compelling, sometimes funny, sometimes outrageous examples that are pure Bethenny. Itβs easy to say no, to say βI canβt,β to expect the worst, and to doubt yourself. But your life can be better than βnot badβ or βgood enough.β It can be amazing. And by putting Bethennyβs rules together, you can use them to be more successful, more fulfilled, healthier, and happier than ever before.
