About this ebook

Emmy Award–winner Aisha Tyler shares her Self-Inflicted Wounds of epic mistakes through hilarious stories—and the life lessons she gained along the way.

Refreshingly and sometimes brutally honest, surprising, and laugh-out-loud funny, the essays in this collection from comedian and actress Aisha Tyler vividly translate the brand of humor she has cultivated through her successful standup career, as well as the strong voice and unique point of view she expresses as a talk show and podcast host. Freely admitting moments of crushing personal embarrassment, Aisha celebrates the personal insights and authentic wisdom she earned from her experiences.

Riotous, revealing, and wonderfully relatable, Self-Inflicted Wounds: Heartwarming Tales of Epic Humiliation is about the power of calamity to shape life, learning, and success.
