"A voice-driven, gripping, and propulsive addiction memoir about a wealthy Black woman on a journey to becoming whole while grappling with issues of substance abuse, race, class, self-sabotage, and love, by the host of the popular podcast, The Only One in the Room"-- Provided by publisher.

After years of hiding her addiction from everyone, Cathcart Robbins settled into a complicated purgatory. She learned the hard way that privilege doesn't protect you from pain. Facing divorce, the possibility of a grueling custody battle, and internalized racism, Robbins wondered just how much more she could take. Here she reveals how she managed to begin the long journey towards sobriety and unexpectedly finding new love. She discusses taking down the wall she built around herself brick by brick, and what it means to be Black in the startingly white world of Hollywood. Her memoir tells just how badly the facade she created had to shatter before she could reconnect to her true self. -- adapted from jacket
