Keep It Smooth: Life Lessons in Confidence

by Cameron Daddo

A memoir from veteran entertainer Cameron Daddo about how we nurture it, how we lose it and how we can get it back again



Multi-talented Cameron Daddo has been a part of the Australian entertainment scene since the late '80s. But you might be surprised to learn that, despite appearances, he grew up lacking confidence. He was a stutterer as a kid, then a restless student and uni dropout, before going on to build a life in showbiz.



In this memoir, Cameron shares the valuable lessons he's learnt along the way, some very the rejections, the victories and everything in between. Through a series of intimate conversations, he also explores public and private crises in the lives of extraordinary Australians, including Keith Urban and Marcia Hines, Michael O'Loughlin and Ryan 'Fitzy' Fitzgerald, Indira Naidoo and Alyssa Healy.



Inspiring and empowering, Keep It Smooth shows us how to rally when we feel we have nothing left to give, and how we can learn to find confidence within.

Cameron if you had simply written your story without interviewing others I may have given it a 5. I found the interviews distracting. Your story was great! Thank you for your honesty and vulnerability.

Really enjoyed this book. It wasn't the usual memoir, it also focused on building confidence. I also really enjoyed the interviews which were dispersed between the chapters as I though that gave different perspectives.
