À propos de cet audio
An inspiring, hilarious memoir about learning to resist the pressures of conformity, love yourself for who you are, embrace your flaws, and unlock your true potential.
Winner of the African American Literary Award for Memoir!
Now cohost of Fox's The Real and SiriusXM's Café Mocha, Loni Love hasn't taken the typical path to becoming America's favorite straight-talking girlfriend and comedian. She was not the child of Hollywood legends and she never wore a size 00. Rather, she grew up in housing projects in Detroit, more worried about affording her next meal than going on a diet. When she moved to Hollywood after graduating college with an engineering degree, seeking to break out in the entertainment world, there was nothing that would convince her to eat the kale salads and quinoa bowls that her colleagues introduced her to, which looked to Love like "weeds my grandma used to pay me a dollar to pull from her yard".
Still, despite the differences that set her apart in the status-driven world of entertainment where being thin, young, blond, and bubbly is sometimes considered a talent, Love spent years trying to fit in - trying to style her hair just so, dieting, dating the men she thought she was supposed to be with. In this book, she tells the uproariously funny story of how she overcame the trap of self-improvement and instead learned to embrace who she was. As Love writes, "There's a saying a lot of people live by: 'Fake it till you make it.' For me, it's always been 'fake it, and then have the whole thing blow up in your face.'" I Tried to Change So You Don't Have To explores all of the embarrassing mistakes, terrifying challenges, and unexpected breakthroughs that taught her how, by committing ourselves to our own path, we can take control of our destiny.

Best book ever:)
Listening to “I tried to change so you don’t have to” is an amazing book I love the fact that it is narrated by Loni Love herself. Truth be told I never knew who she was till I started to watch the Real from the beginning and she always makes me laugh and cry and made me think of things in a whole new way...but this book had been an amazing story it’s like I was sitting at the table and Loni was telling her life stories... Loni’s book taught me that it is never to late to continue discovering what your life is going to be like in the future and that no matter what I can’t change the past but I can change my future and because of her I have made some changes in my life right now to better myself and I feel confident about them because they are my choices.
Thank you Loni Love for sharing your story and for the encouragement that I can work to better my future.
