Valerie Bertinelli Talks Memoir, Menopause, and Emotional Safety
35:00
At an AARP celebrity event hosted by executive editor Shelly Ling, Valerie Bertinelli discusses her memoir “Getting Naked,” released March 10, and her upcoming film “Love Again,” out in May, about caregiving as her character’s husband rapidly declines with early-onset Alzheimer’s. Bertinelli explains why she wrote the memoir, describing quitting alcohol, confronting childhood trauma, shame, and self-loathing through therapy, and learning not to be defined by others’ opinions. She reflects on being cast at 15 in “One Day at a Time,” what success means at 65, and the value of emotional safety, boundaries, friendship, and alone time with creative outlets. She shares thoughts on menopause, her new app “Valerie’s Place” with cooking shows, book group and podcast plans, her walking-and-jumping exercise routine, favorite foods to cook, recent book recommendations, and hopes to travel and see her son perform on tour.
