-By Lilly Singh
A GUIDE TO SURVIVING Conquering LIFE.
Lilly Saini Singh, an Indian born but raised completely in Canada, is an actress, comedian, host, motivational speaker and more importantly a Superwoman! Which is also the name of her popular YouTube channel which has more than 14 billion subscribers. Lilly struggled with depression at a young age and that’s when she started making YouTube videos – The beginning of a beautiful journey. Lilly has collaborated with many A-list celebrities like Selena Gomez, Dwayne Johnson, Madhuri Dixit, Priyanka Chopra, James Franco, Bill Gates, Zendaya, Rita Ora and many more. Lilly started her first World Tour back in 2015 “A Trip to Unicorn Island.” She has been presented with various awards like People’s Choice, Teen Choice, MTV Fandom and Steamy awards. Lilly has been listed among the 40 most powerful people in Comedy in 2019 and had ranked 1st on the Forbes list of top Influencers in Entertainment. In March 2019, NBC announced their new talk show “A Little Late with Lilly Singh” through which she became the first woman to host and executive produce an American Broadcast Network late-night talk show.
In 2017, Lilly published her first book How to be a Bawse, which became No 1 New York Times Best-Seller. This book is a guide to conquer life. My favorite quality about this book is how she guides us to success with her valuable lessons and experiences. It is not a book filled with fancy quotes and hopeful thoughts because there is no secret stairway to success, one has to put in all their hard work and dedication to achieve their goal just like Lilly herself. Lilly says that success, happiness and everything else that feels great in life has no escalators, there are only stairs which is the most real talk I have ever heard in my life.
