"I love her honest and helpful advice about achieving happiness.” Mindy Kaling
From the New York Times best-selling author of How to Be a Bawse comes an honest, funny, and inspiring handbook on learning to come home to your truest and happiest self.
“It’s time to flip right side up. It’s time for this book title to make sense. It’s time to be a triangle.”
Everyone knows that sometimes, life just sucks — even world-famous actress, author, and creator Lilly Singh. In this book, Lilly provides a safe space where listeners can learn how to create a sense of peace within themselves. Without sugarcoating what it’s like to face adversity — including Lilly’s intensely personal struggles with identity, success, and self-doubt — she teaches listeners to “unsubscribe” from cookie-cutter ideals.
With her signature blend of vulnerability, insight, and humor, Lilly instructs listeners to “be a triangle”: You must build a solid foundation for your life, one that can be built upon, but never fundamentally changed or destroyed. As she puts it, we must always find a way to come home to ourselves — “we must create a place, a set of beliefs, a simple set of priorities to come back to should life lead us astray, which it will.”
Like a wise, empathetic friend who always keeps you honest, Lilly pushes you to adjust your mindset and change the conversations you have with yourself. The result is a deeply humane, entertaining, and uplifting guide to befriending yourself and becoming a true “miracle for the world.”
