ForSharon Stone, now is the right time to release her upcoming memoirThe Beauty of Living Twice.
In a PEOPLE exclusive look at this Saturday’sSuper Soulinterview, Stone tellsOprah Winfreyher memoir is coming after decades of reflection and coming to believe that as women reach the age of 40 “white male society starts to tell women you don’t have worth.”
