Elizabeth Gilbert

Picture this — a smart, hip young woman called Elizabeth Gilbert who thought she had it all. She was married, lived in New York, made her living as a successful writer. One night found herself crumpled sobbing in a heap on the floor of the bathroom. And for the first time, she found herself praying to God. That was the start of Elizabeth Gilbert’s journey — both physically and spiritually. The result is her new book called Eat Pray Love: One Woman’s Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia. Elizabeth Gilbert will be Mary Hynes' guest on Tapestry this week. To find out more about Elizabeth Gilbert visit her website.

Music featured on the show is from Oliver Schroer's album Camino.
