About this listen
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “This will be one of your favorite books of all time. Through her intensely vulnerable, honest, and hilarious reflections, Chelsea shows us more than just her insides. She shows us ourselves.”—Amy Schumer
Don’t miss Chelsea Handler’s new Netflix stand-up special, Revolution, now streaming!
In the wake of President Donald Trump’s election, feeling that her country—her life—has become unrecognizable, Chelsea Handler has an awakening. Fed up with the privileged bubble she’s lived in, she decides it’s time to make some changes.
She embarks on a year of self-sufficiency and goes into therapy, prepared to do the heavy lifting required to make sense of a childhood that ended abruptly with the death of her brother. She meets her match in an earnest, nerdy shrink who dissects her anger and gets her to confront her fear of intimacy. Out in the world, she channels her outrage into social action and finds her voice as an advocate for change. With the love and support of an eccentric cast of friends, assistants, family members (alive and dead), and a pair of emotionally withholding rescue dogs, Chelsea digs deep into the trauma that shaped her inimitable worldview and unearths some glittering truths that light up the road ahead.
Thrillingly honest and insightful, Chelsea Handler’s darkly comic memoir is also a clever and sly work of inspiration that gets us to ask ourselves what really matters in our own lives.
Critic Reviews
“The Chelsea Handler I know is a take-no-prisoners activist for the causes she believes in. She brings the same fearlessness and commitment to telling her truth in this book. I’m hoping that one day, in exchange for this blurb, she will let me see the security camera footage of the dog fight in her bedroom.” (Trevor Noah)
I loved it to bits. I wish these reviews didn’t have a word minimum.
So so so good.

This is absolutely a book I'll read time and time again, and I highly recommend it - especially for someone who is slightly older and reevaluating their lives.
Worth it

yet so much deeper, so much more of who she is and who she’s becoming and not only do I think it’s a beautiful book but it makes me want more and really want to better myself in many ways too.
Thanks Chelsea

The 5.5 hours this book takes to listen to, if you relate, will speed up any therapy process you may currently be taking ...or consider undertaking.
The deep psychological break throughs that were candidly articulated and rawly exposed, allowed me to listen and absorb with similar vulnerability.
Learning that I too was sympathetic but lacked empathy, was a huge eye opener. Learning about enneagram system (7 wing 8 here!) has put more things in perspective and allowed me to identify some deep seeded demons.
A compelling, heart breaking and incredibly raw insight to Chelsea's...and one's own life.
I know more about myself now because of Chelsea
