520    $a "Laura Belgray is often introduced on podcasts as "one of the funniest people I know," and her journey offers a LOT of hope to anyone who feels like they haven't quite figured out what they want to do in life. She grew up in grungy New York City when Studio 54 still existed but was no longer cool, doing really cringe-y things to fit in but those things were, more often than not, ill-conceived and humiliating. We're constantly told that we're supposed to live our purpose, dare greatly, attract the life we want, wash our face. But let's face it: we're all tired of shame spiraling about being told what to do when we know we're not going to do that. What does a different path to success look like if you say tough titties to society's expectations? What if you are lazy, desperately approval-seeking, make poor romantic choices, and are chronically stuck? As Laura shows through her own unconventional path to success and happiness, you can live your best life...even if you're the f-ing worst. Beyond being very funny, this book gives readers permission to be themselves--and to feel better about themselves--by sharing Laura's own often embarrassing and awkward coming of age stories as a very late bloomer. It isn't "self help" or even "anti-self help" nor is it a whiny book. It's how to be more of yourself through reassuring "I've been there" stories. As the founder of her own marketing and content company, Talking Shrimp, Laura knows how to get media attention and promote herself and will use the same marketing capabilities that she used to build her one woman company and apply them to selling her book. She will engage her dedicated and growing following of 55K+ on Instagram and 23K+ newsletter subscribers who love her snarky, brutally honest personal development content"-- $c Provided by publisher.
