      A timeless collection of philosophies from a renowned performer and the world's most famous shape-shifter, this work encapsulates the wisdom that has fueled a remarkable career for over thirty-five years. It features more than 80 stunning photographs that illustrate the journey of building the life you desire from both the outside in and the inside out. RuPaul's mantra, "You're born naked and the rest is drag," reflects a deep understanding of life's humorous facade. By breaking 'the fourth wall,' RuPaul delves into the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit, encouraging readers to shed self-imposed limitations. This transformative practice demands diligence and touchstones to maintain a connection to one's spirit. When you dare to look beyond the identity assigned to you, a world of possibilities unfolds. Throughout history, there have been shaman and seers who guide us to seek the truth beneath the surface. This truth reveals our connection to the universal power, often referred to as God in drag. Many resist this idea, but it is RuPaul's key to success in show business and life, especially in navigating emotional challenges. This book transcends the concept of 'doing drag'; for RuPaul, drag serves as a means to deactivate the ego and create space for the limitless.
