She first stepped onto the runway at 15, married at 22, and became a bankrupt single mother at 31. She then moved between multiple cities in three countries to expand her career, independently raising three outstanding children while earning two master's degrees. In her sixties, she returned to modeling, becoming a sensation even with gray hair, and at one point appearing on four billboards in Times Square, New York. She reached the pinnacle of her career at 71 and received an honorary doctorate in nutrition at 75. She is an inspirational figure for many women, the mother of Elon Musk, the "Iron Man of Silicon Valley," but without a doubt, she is the protagonist who controls her own life; she is Maye Musk. It's hard to imagine that she also silently endured years of domestic violence from her husband out of fear, claimed to have poor fashion sense despite being an enviable supermodel, and faced countless rejections due to age discrimination in the workplace. She is not the "perfect woman" portrayed by the media; she even considered hiding those painful memories in her work. But she hopes that her dear readers, after reading this book, can experience less struggle and pain and more joy at having escaped hardship. In this book, Maye shares her real-life experiences and how a woman gradually explores the world and rebuilds herself. She candidly shares her experiences and advice on life issues such as beauty, career, family, education, and health. We may not be able to avoid falling into similar predicaments, but we can cope with them as positively as she did. There are no one-size-fits-all solutions, but we need enough common sense and the ability to plan; we don't need to be precise about every change in our lives, we can address problems as they arise; as long as we eat healthily, keep smiling, and have a positive, happy, and confident attitude towards life, we can take excellent care of ourselves. Find a professional field to cultivate deeply, and always believe that every decade of your life is better than the last.
她15岁首次登上T台，22岁结婚，31岁成为破产的单身母亲，随后辗转于三个国家的多座城市拓展自己的事业，独立培养出三个出色的子女，同时取得了两个硕士学位。60多岁时，她重返模特舞台，在头发变白的时候走红，一度登上纽约时代广场的四块广告牌。她在71岁时登上事业巅峰，75岁时获授营养学名誉博士学位。她是众多女性心中的励志偶像，她是“硅谷钢铁侠”埃隆·马斯克的母亲，但毫无疑问，她是掌控自己人生的主角，她是梅耶·马斯克。很难想象，这样的她也曾因害怕而默默忍受丈夫家暴多年，身为令众人艳羡的超模却说自己衣品差，在职场遭遇年龄歧视而被无数次地拒绝。她并不是媒体塑造的“完美女性代言人”，她甚至曾想在作品中隐藏那些痛苦的回忆。但她更希望亲爱的读者在阅读这本书后，可以经历更少挣扎和苦痛，拥有更多幸免于难的欣喜。在这本书中，梅耶展现了她的真实经历，以及一个女性是如何逐步探索世界和重建自我的。她坦诚地分享了关于美丽、职场、家庭、教育、健康等人生问题的经验和建议，我们或许无法避免陷入与之相似的困境，但可以像她一样积极应对。没有一步到位的解决办法，但要有足够的常识和制订计划的能力；不必把人生中的每一次改变都精确到细节，可以在问题出现的时候再着手解决；只要采取健康的饮食，保持微笑，拥有积极、快乐和自信的人生态度，你完全可以把自己照顾得很好。找到专业的领域深耕，始终相信，生命中的每一个十年都比上一个十年更好。
