Bethenny Frankel's no-nonsense, tell-it-like-it-is personality won over countless fans, and made her a nationally bestselling author and the star of her own hit Bravo show Bethenny Getting Married? Now Bethenny opens up and shares the obstacles she overcame and the great success she has enjoyed while discovering how to approach life from “A Place of Yes.” Bethenny’s path was not always clear as she overcame a difficult childhood, failed relationships, entrepreneurial efforts that never quite got off the ground, and lifelong money struggles. To deal with these challenges, Bethenny developed ten rules for pursuing her goals with authenticity and drive, including:

* Find your truth: Dig deep inside and figure out what is authentic for you, not anybody else.

* Act on it: You don’t have to have a master plan. But unless you do something, you’ve done nothing.

* Everything's your business: Treat every job, person, and experience as if it could lead to your next big opportunity.

* Own it: If you do it, say it, think it—then own it. Stand up for yourself and fully acknowledge who you really are.

Each rule is illustrated with compelling, sometimes funny, sometimes outrageous examples that are pure Bethenny. It’s easy to say no, to say “I can’t,” to expect the worst, and to doubt yourself. But your life can be better than “not bad” or “good enough.” It can be amazing. And by putting Bethenny’s rules together, you can use them to be more successful, more fulfilled, healthier, and happier than ever before.

Real wisdom...based in REALITY

Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2011

Even if you are not looking for guidance, or "self-help", this book is inspiring, touching, and motivating. Bethenny's witty personality shines through in her writing and this makes A Place of Yes, more than just a self help book - it is a story of a woman who has overcome a slew of obstacles in her life to create the amazing life she lives now. To overcome the things she has been through and be the amazingly successful entrepreneur that she is today is nothing short of amazing. Her personal anecdotes and how they relate to each "rule", make this book a worthwhile read for anyone. I guess I would say it is somewhat of a memoir wrapped up in self help book. Unless you dislike Bethenny, you will like this book.

Personally, I have tried more than one self help book (many of the very popular ones) and could not get through a single one in completion because I found them difficult to relate to and maybe a little too spiritual for my personal taste - to each their own, everyone is different. Unlike most "self help" books, A Place of Yes is an easy read and doesn't make you feel pressured to make positive changes IMMEDIATELY or you will never have a good life, or live in the now and forget about your past and never worry about your future, or anything like that, things I personally found as unrealistic. This book is based in reality and whether you choose to "follow the rules" or not, you will be inspired in some way, shape, or form.

Again, everyone is different. Some people may be looking for spiritual guidance through self help books, and others may just be looking for inspiration. What we all have in common is that we are searching for some form of guidance. In writing A Place of Yes, Bethenny shares her own story, the incredible struggles she endured as a child, how those struggles have affected her throughout her life, the mistakes she has made along the way, what she has learned from each mistake, and how learning to come from a place of yes has helped her get to where she is today. She relates her personal stories to each "rule" and, in doing so, truly demonstrates how each rule can be applied to our own lives and help us overcome our own personal obstacles - past, present, and future.

I have personally found this book immensely helpful as I am going through a particularly tough time in my life. Bethenny's words have inspired me and motivated me even in my darkest hours, to see that things can and will get better. Reading A Place of Yes as I continue with my own personal journey has definitely helped me regain a sense of empowerment and strength that I thought I had lost.

Whether you are a Bethenny Frankel fan already, or you have no idea who she is, if you are looking for a good read (that just happens to be a self help(ful) book as well), you will not be wasting your time (or money) on this one!

An inspiration! Funny, encouraging, great life advice!

I cannot say enough good things about this book. I'm not sure if its because I'm a struggling and confused 20-something that makes this book resonate with me so much, or if its because I've always been a huge Bethenny Frankel fan- but this book is fantastic!

Bethenny is so relatable and honest, you can't help but feel like she's talking right to you. In a way this book is very motivational, you feel like she's your best friend and coach at the same time- giving you hope and courage that you can go out to succeed at pursuing your dreams whatever they may be. She talks about her past and how she got to where she is. But she really tries to focus on her reader because it feels like she's in your corner the whole time, cheering you on to keep going and make good choices for success.

I love all the 10 Rules she gives. They seem simple on the surface, but they actually dig pretty deep if you apply them to your own life. If you're a fan of the Real Housewives or her own show you will love the behind the scenes stories to her life that don't get to come out in the short interviews on TV.

If you just need a boost of encouragement and want something entertaining and enlightening to read- this is it! I'm so happy for Bethenny's success! She's a role model for women everywhere- I definitely look up to her and think she's a businesswoman I'd want to emulate. I will always be rooting for her. She definitely hit a home run with this book! She put her heart and soul into it- and it shows.

First off, I cannot believe the negative reviews of this book. It is probably the best self help book I have ever read! Bethenny is so inspiring in A Place of Yes and she makes the reader feel even more comfortable in their own skin. I am a huge fan of Bethenny, I watch her shows, read her books and of course drink Skinnygirl Margaritas! Overall Bethenny is very down to earth and writes from her heart. She truly cares about others and doing what she can to show her fans how much we mean to her. This book is so motivational that I want to purchase the audiobook as well so that from time to time I can listen to her inspiring messages and stories to make me feel more positive and driven. I am 28, a newlywed, living in a small apartment in a small town working at a job I am not passionate about. I am very creative and am truly a city dweller but my husband loves his teaching job here and our family is here. I used to live in NYC and very much feel I need a city to develop my talents.
Bethenny through A Place of Yes has given me the tools to get through and push forward and to appreciate what I have now even though it's not where I had pictured I would be or where I would believe a "normal"woman at my age would be at this time. She discusses "normal noise" as well as other noise in the book. Overall this book is worth every single penny you pay for it! Can't wait for her next release!

Interesting biography with useful tips.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 15, 2020

I was pleasantly surprised by this book , it's the only self help type book I've managed to read to end. Bethany includes 10 tips to a place of yes and the book includes a bits of biography about bethany's life including her childhood and marriage. Its can be a little awkward when she gushes about her husband, when we know its ended up in a nasty divorce. I will now buy her other books.

I loved Bethenny Frankel on the Real Housewives of New York and also on her short lived ‘The Big Shot with Bethenny’. I was excited to read this book and went to great lengths to get a copy. Unfortunately it’s an indulgent snooze fest and I did not bother to read more than a quarter of it. Bethenny is at her best when she’s in the Housewives…. Nothing else really resonates. I’m grateful I can always re watch past episodes of that - cause she really used to be something amazing!
