It’s Time to Lighten The F’CK Up with self-help expert Madison Malloy

There’s a new book out and we are loving it! It’s called Time to Lighten the F*ck Up: A Self-Help Guide With A Side Of Humor, a self-help book with a twist of humor by author and self-help expert to the stars, Madison Malloy! 

Madison Malloy went from being a Wall Street analyst to a stand-up comic and now hosts her own self-help/business podcast “Next to Madison.” She also creates and produces television shows, is an entrepreneur and investor, and is now the author of one of the bestsellers on Amazon.

Time to Lighten the F*ck Up is a humorous and honest take on self-help. The first-time author wrote the book after overcoming years of depression and anxiety, induced by a high-stress job on Wall Street and not being realistic about her goals and dreams. Fears about money, career, and the opinions of others prompted a “scarcity mindset,” she says, and self-help books and podcasts provided no help. It wasn’t until she summoned the courage to quit her finance career and pursue her dreams did her life begin to change. All it took was laughter.

Throughout Time to Lighten the F*ck Up, Malloy shares real-life ways to stop chasing money, create financial freedom, conquer fear, embrace gratitude and faith, change your perceptions, manifest your best reality, always be ready to have your best day, and chill out about the crap that doesn’t matter! Her insights and anecdotes, doused with edgy and earthy humor, are relatable, practical, and hysterical, and it’s a quick read that will leave readers laughing.

With everything that is going on in the world, Malloy says it best: “It’s  time to lighten the f*ck up to make the world a better place.” Everything is so serious these days, which inspired her to write a self-help book with a twist of humor to help others let go and live life in a silly and honest way.  A refreshing take on what’s going on in the world, Malloy shares tips in her book on how to cope mentally with what obstacles we face. And she’s got a celebrity following in Kathy Hilton, Paula Abdul, Donny Wahlberg, and more! 

Malloy is not only brilliant but has a big heart too. Proceeds of the book are going towards the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI),  a nationwide, grassroots mental health organization. NAMI offers educational programs, advocates for individuals and families affected by mental illness, and operates a toll-free helpline, which is close and dear to her heart and what got her through writing this book and giving self-help tips herself to those in need.

Caught up with Michaela Coel at the premiere of ‘Mother Mary’. Starring as Sam Anselm, a fashion designer and estranged former collaborator to Anne Hathaway’s pop star character, Coel knew she was tied to the script since first reading its “beautiful words”. Her standout performance is already gaining praise.
