Frankly, I'm comfortable in my own skin- and have been for a long time now. I don’t analyze myself in terms of how others see me physically. I’m more concerned with just being healthier, not just for myself for others in my life, as well. I never stand on the scales, or angst over gray hairs or wrinkles- but of course, I’m not on TV, nor am I under the social media spotlight being scrutinized by trolls everyday… so there’s that. The passages about her son and ex are all quite touching and I agree with her new approach to the next 20 years (plus or minus) of her life. However, I found the book much too repetitive to be enjoyable. I ended up skimming until I found passages of interest. Beloved actress, Food Network personality, and New York Times bestselling author Valerie Bertinelli reflects on life at sixty and beyond. This thoughtful, bighearted book is sure to be a hit with Bertinelli fans and those with an appetite for stories of hard-won self-acceptance. A warmly intimate memoir.”

Sexual Harassment in the Workplace: Overview for Employers

I know I will be in the minority here, but after reading this book I actually think less of Bertinelli than I did before I read it. I LOVED this book! And I love Valerie Bertinelli! Valerie, if you are reading this, can we please be BFF’s?! Enough Already is a coalition committed to putting an end to workplace sexual harassment through education, support and empowerment. I liked the way the recipes are tied to specific memories, events, occasions… and they are recipes that are down to earth and sound, not only delicious, but comforting, as well. I do wish we had some recipe photos, though.

I should have read the description of this book much more closely, so take this all with a grain of pink Himalayan salt. I remember Valerie through One Day at a Time, various Lifetime-type movies, and her marriage to Eddie Van Halen. I had no idea she was also a foodie who had a lot of weight issues and has made a reputation of talking about it. So those who know and like Valerie for those two things should find this book quite appealing. Unfortunately, I'm not interested in hearing about women's "relationship with food,"or their weight struggles. Like I said, I should have read the description better, because I was certainly warned. I will say there were some really nice parts - her evolving relationship with her ex-husband was interesting (I would have preferred to hear more). Her travels to Italy were fun. But all in all, hearing a woman go on and on about her insecurities - especially when the woman has had the massive success that this author has had - wears on my nerves. I also thought her "relationship with food" was schizo. On the one hand, she is constantly lamenting that she buries her feelings with food - but then suddenly we get another high-calorie, artery-busting recipe. watching football on TV; taping her cooking show; being a Jenny Craig spokesperson; enjoying her pets; rebuilding her beach house; watching cat videos on TikTok;Eddie sadly died and although she claims he still pays her visits while she is in bed at night, the simple fact is he is gone and she is NOT his widow. Beloved actress, Food Network personality, and New York Times bestselling author Valerie Bertinelli reflects on life at sixty and beyond. Can I say Valerie’s journey towards self-love inspired me in any way personally? Sure- I think some of her advice to herself is solid. All of us should practice self-care, but there was nothing in that way I have not heard before. Still, there's a good list of things to do that are worth being reminded of- but we all have to do the work ourselves. Take our “Creating Harassment-Free Workplaces” training. Whether you are an employee or an employer, let’s build new skills to strengthen your workplace and support a safer work environment for everyone.

Enough Already : Learning to Love the Way I Am Today

It’s tempting to think sexual harassment at work is a thing of the past. But every year there are more than 200 reports of sexual harassment in Saskatchewan workplaces, spanning all professions and industries. And those are just the people brave enough to speak up.This book was enjoyable on many levels: the Eddie/Wolfie revelations, enthusiasm for good food (and a way of showing love when cooking for others), and finding contentment in the simple pleasures of life. I can truly say I enjoyed this book more than I expected to. I was reading some others at the same time and stopped them to devote myself to this one!

To be honest, I only knew of Valerie Bertinelli as Eddie Van Halen’s wife/ex wife. I didn’t even know she had a cooking show on the Food Network 😬. Somehow or another her posts started popping up on my social media feed, and I thought I’d like to follow her and read her book. I am SO glad that I did! Did I mention that I loved this book?! Been a big fan of Valerie Bertinelli's since the days of One Day At A Time. I grew up watching that show. When I saw this book was coming out, I jumped at the chance to read it. I've always wanted to know more about the lady behind the actor. In case you haven't gotten you hands on Valerie's memoir yet — signed copies are still available at Barnes and Noble and Books a Million — Enough Already: Learning to Love the Way I Am Today details the her rise to fame, her journey to body confidence, her family and her marriage to the late Eddie Van Halen. Another epiphany: why can't we all just help our fellow man (as she's spending millions on renovations while living in a multi million dollar home) Her relationships with her ex-husband Eddie Van Halen and son Wolfgang are powerful to witness, even on the sidelines. The love she has for these two humans is incomparable to anything else. You feel the emotion throughout.I chose the audiobook of Enough Already by Valerie Bertinelli because, when possible, I enjoy listening to memoirs narrated by the author. Their story - their voice. This one felt so warm and real and often sad despite the many hopeful and inspirational messages. Mostly though, she just seems kind of nice but empty. She talks about never really having a relationship with her parents before they died, and her mother's life of pain and unhappiness. She talks about not feeling comfortable doing basic things like putting her arm around Eddie when he seemed sad and she has almost no mention of anything she does for pleasure other than cooking for people, doting on her son, starring in her tv shows and watching cat tiktok videos. There are also a couple of unnecessary political asides slamming Trump for Covid and praising Dr. Fauci, who has not only flip-flopped dozens of times during the pandemic but also may have ties to the start of the crisis. She says she's very worried about the direction the country is going, but doesn't call out current president Joe Biden for his many bad decisions that have hurt the country. Namely, she seems to pay too much attention to biased media reports and should do more intelligent research to become less stressed. I literally bawled like a baby when she wrote about Eddie's passing. I felt like I lost someone in that moment, it was so profound.
