According to People Magazine, Knowles, who previously received criticism from Kanye West, said she opened up about her ordeal to serve as a lesson for women worldwide.

Knowles said:

"I struggled with whether I would share that journey [in the book] because I'm very private. But I decided to share it because I think it's a lot of lessons in it for other women," she says. "And I think as women, sometimes we get so busy and we get so wrapped up and running around, but you must go get your test. Because if I had not gotten my test early, I mean, I shudder to think what could have happened to me."

Knowles announced the book's release on her Instagram account:
