Growing up in nothing less than the lap of\u00a0Southern<\/span>\u00a0luxury, Garson candidly details her travels around the world, facing the early stages of an eating disorder and being raised by a member of the mansion\u2019s help. She later explores, with humor, the stages of her life from college and law school to careers, marriage, motherhood and time in a low-income mental institution due to her struggles with anxiety and depression.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
