Lessons: My Path to a Meaningful Life

Spread out over the eight chapters, Bündchen delivers a mish mash of a biography and life advice for us all, and arguably I think it's perhaps aimed more towards women than men, even though what she does impart is applicable for both.

What I did enjoy is that for someone who has played a stereotype, the supermodel, who publicly usually says very little - Gisele's advice comes from the heart and she means well by it all, having gone through some trying times in her early career.

If the book is filed under biographies, then perhaps it's not as deep on this label as I would have liked it to have been, as the timeframes are not particularly chronological.

The end result is a quick and easy read, and Bündchen writes what could be best be described as a self help book with a strong autobiographical element and hey, it is a comfort to see that even the rich and successful have problems like the rest of us.

The question is that will 2019 make (m)any of us brave enough to sort ourselves out?
