Parvati Shallow Book Event
2025-07-12 13:00 - 14:00 (America/Chicago) | Mall of America
Parvati Shallow, mother, winner and five-time competitor of the hit TV series “Survivor” and breakout star of “The Traitors” on Peacock, will be joining us for a special event to celebrate her new book Nice Girls Don’t Win.

In Nice Girls Don’t Win, Shallow shares the stories that allowed her to transform her most difficult moments into potent catalysts for empowerment. From her childhood growing up in a Florida commune run by a tyrannical female guru, to her journey out of the South and into the L.A. casting rooms that would eventually drop her in the lush but brutal landscapes of “Survivor,” Shallow shows readers what it took to build herself into the ultimate survivor — for better and, more often, for worse. She then reveals what it took to rebuild herself into something much greater.
