I’m excited (and a little nervous) about my new book, STILL BOBBI, —a memoir—coming out on September 23, 2025. This is my tenth book, but it’s unlike anything I’ve written before. It tells the unlikely story of where I started, who I am now, and how I figured things out along the way.
So, this is what I’ve learned so far about publishing a memoir. It’s been a cathartic experience, talking to my writer once or twice a week for a year. It has helped me understand who I am, why I’ve been able to do the things I’ve done, and how I got here.
I wasn’t planning to write a memoir. But one day, my now-agent literally showed up at my office in New Jersey and convinced me that I needed to tell my story. And because I liked her, I said yes. I thought it would be more about how to build a business while being a devoted wife, mother, and friend. I kept saying it wasn’t a memoir but rather the stories of building a life. But it evolved into something more.
I’m also learning how to market and sell a book so it has a chance to appear on The New York Times Best Sellers list and beyond. According to my publisher, the key to getting your book on the NYT Best sellers list is pre-selling as many copies as you can. So, click here to reserve your copy and please share the link with your friends too
So, here we are with the announcement—without an approved cover. It’s done, but not really. I get at least four more months for edits. And oh, I just found out I’ll be reading the audiobook version myself—and I was told to block out four whole days for it!
There’s a lot more to come, and so much I can’t wait to share. Don’t forget to preorder yours too. UK and US links available here.

Pre-ordered the book. A book tour would be fantastic with a stop in Chicago. 🙏
CONGRATS Bobbi 🙌🏼 I can not wait to hear the audio version! I still head back to your old podcasts to listen ❤️
