Summary
A gripping, painfully honest and ultimately inspirational, New York Times bestselling memoir from global superstar and creator of the Red Table Talk series Jada Pinkett Smith.
In a media driven landscape that crafts narratives for our celebrities, Smith recounts her story in an intimate conversation with readers. Along the way, she explores her path to accepting her power as a woman, and her discovery that a strong sense of self is every woman’s right and saving grace.
An impactful and rare memoir that engages and educates, Worthy is a courageous love song to self, to family, to life, and to the world.
From an unconventional upbringing in Baltimore, to an unconventional marriage to one of the most famous men in the world, adhering to the status quo has never been a familiar road for Jada Pinkett Smith. In Worthy, Smith strips herself of all the labels and stories crafted by others, and reclaims her narrative with radical self-love. Worthy teaches us who Jada is, and how to embrace our most authentic loveable souls.
Critic reviews
'Worthy is at its best when it’s sparky and spiky with self-doubt and humour' i NEWS
‘As a teen, she was a mid-level drug dealer on Baltimore’s streets, repeatedly mugged at gunpoint for whatever she held on her. Surviving such ordeals, and her more recent battles with alopecia, have given her a steely armour’ Daily Telegraph
'It’s a shame that Pinkett Smiths marriage has taken up so much attention because, as Worthy shows, it’s far from the most interesting thing about her’ Hadley Freeman, Sunday Times Magazine

Gives you other sides to one sided media madness
I like how Jada gives insight into her life, her world, who she is, and her truths and struggles. She gets her perspective and points across in a calm, genuine and dignified way. I’ve never had an opinion on her, but after listening to this audiobook I’ve really warmed to her. If you enjoy knowing what makes people tick, have a more holistic approach to life, and are interested in Jada and her family, you’ll enjoy this. Jada reads it very well, it’s more like a chilled conversation, you don’t get bored. I enjoyed it.

The openness of Jada throughout the book
I absolutely enjoyed this book! It is best read with no bias from the existing conversations about the author and her marriage.
I could draw parallels with different parts of her journey towards fulfilment and rediscovering herself. As a woman who has been married before and had given up parts of my growth for that marriage, it tells me that it’s never too late to embark on the journey of fulfilment, without resentment. Thanks Jada for sharing your story!

Fairly interesting
Liked most of the stories but found it a bit tedious towards the end. Had to skip a few bits (about faith) as it was not interesting to me at all

What a life
Loved Jada telling her story. What an insightful and honest view she has. I also liked the short chapters/ words of wisdom explained in a non patronising way.
