The book is due out on June 23 and explores all of the embarrassing mistakes, terrifying challenges, and unexpected breakthroughs that taught her how by committing to our own path, we can take control of our destiny. This book is deeply personal yet interwoven with her trademark humor.
During the IG Live chat, Love shared her thoughts about how frustrated she is with people refusing to wear masks despite the ongoing pandemic ravaging our communities.
“There’s still a contagious disease,” she says. “People don’t understand.”

Here’s the description:
Good girlfriends can get you through anything in life – especially during the quarantine. With the help of a little tech and a lot of sisterhood, each week different female celebrity friends will hold a virtual chat room “check in” — spilling the tea about their relationships, their families, sharing new recipes, and reminding us that we are truly all in this together. The six-episode series is produced by Critical Content.
