When Maye Musk decided to make grey hair glam, she became an international cover model in her sixties - a far cry from the single mother living in a small Durban apartment trying to make ends meet to provide for her three kids. Things have not always been easy or glamorous for the mother of South African-born entrepreneur Elon Musk.
She is a survivor of domestic abuse at the hands of her first husband; she struggled emotionally and financially as a single mom; battled weight issues; and she had to restart her life and her practice as a dietician in numerous new cities over and again. In all these accounts, Maye's indomitable spirit is apparent.
She overcame her hardships with a no-nonsense attitude to become a global success at what she calls the 'prime of her life'. She also shares hard-earned wisdom and frank, practical advice on career (the harder you work, the luckier you get), family (let those you love go their own way), health (there is no magic pill), adventure (make room for discovery, but always be ready for anything), and more.
Although you can't control everything, you can live a happier, healthier and fun-filled life at any age. All you have to do is make a plan.
