Listen Later

Trigger warning: This episode contains mentions of suicide. You are worthy. If you need more convincing, this week’s episode is not to miss. Tara Schuster, author of Glow in the F*cking Dark: Simple Practices to Heal Your Soul from Someone Who Learned the Hard Way, joins Lily on the show! In the book and throughout this conversation, Tara shares practical steps to liberate yourself from emotional suffering, heal your past, and own your future.

Tara served as Vice President of Talent and Development at Comedy Central, where she was the executive in charge of critically acclaimed shows such as the Emmy and Peabody Award–winning Key & Peele, the Emmy® Award winning @Midnight (now After Midnight on CBS) amongst many others. Over the last twelve years, Tara has spent her “10,000 hours” on the other side of the couch studying philosophy, therapies, religions, and even memoirs of the adults she admired so that she could find emotional freedom from a neglectful and psychologically abusive childhood. Lily and Tara get into:

  • “It’s not magic having a different life. You can’t sit back and wait for it to happen; you have to work for it.”
  • What inspired Tara to write Glow in the F*cking Dark and its mission: the practice of finding your essential self.
  • Thoughts and advice for overcoming lack of self-trust and self-criticism 
  • Tara shares her self-compassion party trick!
  • How Tara got to a place to make decisions rooted in her own best interest, especially in dating
