Description

Tara Schuster's new book Buy Yourself The F*cking Lillies is exactly the kind of self-help/deprecating read we need right now to get us through self-isolation.Yola and her hash out their childhood trauma with laughter, f-bombs while drinking white claws and learning Tara's favorite rituals from her new book. Tara is also the boss serving as the VP of talent and development at Comedy Central -- currently the Executive in Charge of Lights Out with David Spade. She was the executive in charge of the Emmy & Peabody award winning Key & Peele, helping to launch the careers of Jordan Peele and Keegan-Michael Key, among others. She kicked off her career at Comedy Central as an intern at The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. She seemingly had it all together -- but underneath her veneer of success, she had to overcome being a chronically anxious, self-medicating mess -- owing in large part to her minimally parented upbringing. After drunk dialing her therapist on her 25th birthday, she knew she needed a wake-up call. Tara’s book tells the story on her path to “re-parenting” herself and becoming a “ninja of self-love.” Through simple daily rituals, Tara transformed her mind, body, and relationships and hopes to help readers do the same. Her aim for the book is to help people create a life they truly, totally f*cking LOVE.   Connect with Yola: @yolarobert Find the pod: @isuckatlifepodcast   Produced by Dear Media.
