As a woman in today’s world, you know what it’s like to feel pressure on all sides from clashing cultural expectations. How can you stay true to who God has uniquely created you to be in the face of the script you’ve been given? What’s more, how can you stand your ground with grace? The classy confidence you know and love - whether it’s on set at Full House or Fuller House, Dancing with the Stars, The View, or Candace’s Hallmark films - is no act. But it hasn’t come easy. In fact, learning to stay true to herself with grace has been one of the biggest fights of Candace’s life.

Whether she’s playing an “age-defying” book editor on television or dazzling audiences on the Broadway stage, Sutton Foster manages to make it all look easy. How? Crafting. From the moment she picked up a cross stitch needle to escape the bullying chorus girls in her early performing days, she was hooked. Cross stitching led to crocheting, crocheting led to collages, which led to drawing, and so much more. Channeling her emotions into her creations centered Sutton as she navigated the significant moments in her life and gave her tangible reminders of her experiences.

For decades, Demi Moore has been synonymous with celebrity. From iconic film roles to high-profile relationships, Moore has never been far from the spotlight - or the headlines. Even as Demi was becoming the highest paid actress in Hollywood, however, she was always outrunning her past. Throughout her rise to fame and during some of the most pivotal moments of her life, Demi battled addiction, body image issues, and childhood trauma that would follow her for years - all while juggling a skyrocketing career and at times negative public perception.

Publisher's Summary
She grew up in front of the world on the beloved sitcom Full House, but then actress Andrea Barber abruptly left Hollywood. Why did she leave and what did she do for 20 years out of the spotlight before returning to television? This is her funny and inspiring memoir of fame, heartache, resilience - and the reboot of a lifetime....
When Kimmy Gibbler burst into the Tanners' home on Full House in 1987, audiences immediately connected with the confident and quirky pre-teen character, played by 10-year-old actress Andrea Barber. During an eight-season run on one of the most popular series of the '80s and '90s, Andrea came of age in front of millions. But she was as far removed from her character as a girl can get. The introverted young star was plagued with self-doubt, insecurities, and debilitating anxieties that left her questioning her identity after the show's cancelation. Andrea wouldn't return to the public eye until 2016, for Fuller House. So what happened in those intervening decades that Andrea jokingly calls "the lost years"?
For starters, Andrea never stopped working. But it was on a series of life-changing transitions: earning a college degree, then a Master's, building a career in international education, getting married, and starting a family. She also faced some unforeseeable transitions: navigating a sudden divorce after nearly 12 years of marriage, and second-guessing her capabilities as a single mother. But it was her devastating bout with post-partum anxiety and depression that derailed Andrea's life - and became a crucial turning point.
Full Circle is a raw, refreshingly honest look into the life of a celebrity who has never been fully comfortable in the spotlight. Here Andrea shares her deeply personal struggles with mental health in a way she has never done before. She opens up about fighting her way back and finding solace - while finding herself - all before her life came full circle with her costars and lifelong friends on Fuller House. Sharing her journey from child star, to champion of mental health, and back to stardom, Andrea writes in a way that feels like catching up with an old friend.
You'll laugh, reminisce, and finally get to know the woman behind the zany next-door neighbor.

Wow. I LOVED this book!
Andrea managed to put into words how I felt/feel struggling with anxiety and depression, recovering from divorce, and being a single mom. I laughed. I cried. I felt so understood. Thank you Andrea! I am amazed at how down to earth this book is. One of my favorite memoirs to date.

Totally relatable!
I don’t usually listen to a lot of memoirs, but I thoroughly enjoyed this book! Andrea is so down to earth and genuine and I appreciated the honestly in which she shared her struggles with anxiety and depression. I completely related to her as a working mom struggling with anxiety, raising kids, and putting your children first, always. Her life was very interesting and she’s an awesome narrator!

Lots of Love for Andrea!
I absolutely loved listening to Andrea's (AKA, Kimmy Gibbler's) story. Had I not listened, I would've never have even guessed that she has suffered from anxiety pretty much her entire life. She has overcame so much in her life and still manages to push through. I love how down to earth and relatable she is. She may play some quirky characters on set, but she sure is a lady full of class! Thank you, Andrea for sharing your story with us!

Loved every second
I eschewed all the ‘must-read’ New York Times bestsellers and the like in favour of something I thought I’d enjoy much more. And, boy, did I nail it!
I loved every second. It was such a beautifully crafted memoir narrated perfectly by the author whose voice I’d know anywhere.
This book is for Full House fans, Fuller House fans, Kimmy Gibbler fans, anyone who suffers from anxiety and/or depression and anyone who’s been through a painful divorce.
If you adore the totally loveable, open, honest and down-to-earth Andrea Barber, you’ll adore her even more after listening to this book. If I met her, I’m sure we’d become instant besties. 😉
Thank you, Andrea, for taking the time to put together this incredible book and audio for so many to enjoy and get so much value out of. It will stay with me for a very long time. xoxo
