Description

"Bevy knows what's what, and she is the kind of woman you want in your corner. If you don't believe me . . . buy the book." —Whoopi Goldberg

"Funny, wise, well-experienced, empathetic, colorful—Bevy brings the spirit of humanity wherever she goes." —Pharrell Williams


From the host of the fabulous and popular show Bevelations on SiriusXM’s Radio Andy channel, Bevy Smith’s irreverent and inspiring memoir about learning to live a big, authentic, and unapologetic life—and how you can, too

Bevy Smith was living what seemed like a glamorous dream as a fashion advertising executive, blazing a lucrative career for herself in the whitewashed magazine world. She jetsetted to Europe for fashion shows, dined and danced at every hot spot, and enjoyed a mighty roster of lovers.

So it came as quite a shock to Bevy when one day, after arriving at her luxury hotel in Milan, she collapsed on the Frette bedsheets and sobbed. Years of rolling with the in-crowd had taken its toll. Her satisfaction with work and life had hit rock bottom. But Bevy could not be defeated, and within minutes (okay, days) she grabbed a notepad and started realizing a truer path—one built on self-reflection and, ultimately, clarity. She figured out how to redirect her life toward meaningful creativity and freedom.

In her signature lively and infectious voice (there’s no one like Bevy!), Bevelations candidly shares how she reclaimed her life’s course and shows how we too can manifest our most bodacious dreams. From repossessing her bold childhood nature to becoming her own brand to envisioning her life’s next great destination (which will feature natural hair, important charitable giving, and a midcentury house overlooking the Pacific Ocean), Bevy invites readers along on the route of her personal transformation to reveal how each of us can live our best lives with honesty, joy, and, when we’re in the mood, a killer pair of shoes.

    Bevy is a fighter, a great woman and a beautiful Queen in everything she does! I’ve been watching Bevy since she was on Bravo and I always admired her style, tenacity & grit. She is an inspiration to all women ESPECIALLY women of color and it is my distinct honor to have bought her book continuing the legacy of artists supporting other artists. You go Bevy! The best is yet to come for you! Thank you for inspiring all of us to greatness and heights in this life we never thought we could ever achieve. All the best with love always ~ Absyte ❤️

    Phenomenal! This was a book that I didn't want to end. Bevy dropped so many life gems, and as a fashionista in Hip-Hop, she really had my eyes and ears. I've known about her for a very long time, but to learn about her through her words was truly a treat. Bevy really is that Auntie, Mutha, and Bestie!
