Brutally honest often hilarious hard-won lessons in learning to love and care for yourself.
By the time she was in her late twenties Tara Schuster was a rising TV executive who had
worked for The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and helped launch Key & Peele to viral superstardom.
By all appearances she had mastered being a grown-up. But beneath that veneer of success she
was a chronically anxious self-medicating mess. No one knew that her road to adulthood had
been paved with depression anxiety and shame owing in large part to her minimally parented
upbringing. She realised she'd hit rock bottom when she drunk-dialled her therapist pleading
for help. Buy Yourself the F*cking Lilies is the story of Tara's path to re-parenting herself
and becoming a 'ninja of self-love'. Through simple daily rituals Tara transformed her mind
body and relationships and in this book she shows how to: * fake gratitude until you actually
feel gratitude * excavate your emotional wounds and heal them with kindness * identify your
self-limiting beliefs kick them to the curb and start living a life you choose * silence your
inner frenemy and shield yourself from self-criticism * carve out time each morning to start
your day empowered inspired and ready to rule * create a life you truly totally f*cking LOVE
This is the book Tara wished someone had given her and it is the book many of us desperately
need: a candid hysterical addictively readable practical guide to growing up (no matter
where you are in life) and learning to love yourself in a
non-throw-up-in-your-mouth-it's-so-cheesy way.
