From stand-up comedian and actress Tiffany Haddish comes a hysterical and unflinching collection of personal essays that reflect her fearless spirit. Growing up in one of the poorest neighborhoods of South Central Los Angeles, Tiffany learned early on that making people laugh was a survival tactic. Humor helped her navigate school, avoid trouble with foster kids, and even attract boyfriends—though none of that quite worked out. Despite her struggles, including being a paid school mascot and an in-demand Bar Mitzvah hype woman, Tiffany's passion for comedy remained her guiding light. Her journey is marked by a series of shocking, jaw-dropping moments, from plotting revenge on an ex-boyfriend to grappling with her newfound fame while still holding onto a broke person's mindset. As she shares her story of rising from nothing to achieving her dreams, Tiffany uses her pain as a source of strength and healing. With a blend of humor, honesty, and raw emotion, she reveals her true self—humble, grateful, and undeniably funny. Through her experiences, she aims to inspire others, showcasing the transformative power of laughter.
