About this listen

Advice for graduates and reflections on staying true to yourself from the beloved Gilmore Girls actress and New York Times best-selling author of the memoir Talking as Fast as I Can and the novel Someday, Someday, Maybe.

"If you're not where you want to be on this day - don't worry about it. Because the spotlight aspect of life? That's not the satisfying part."

In this expansion of her 2017 commencement speech at her hometown Langley High, Lauren Graham reflects in her hilarious, relatable voice on growing up, pursuing your dreams, and living in the here and now. "Whatever path you choose, whatever career you decide to go after, the important thing," she writes, "is that you keep finding joy in what you're doing, especially when the joy isn't finding you."

She reminds us to be curious and compassionate, no matter where life takes you. "Whether you hope to be an actor or a politician or a mathematician, I've learned that empathy and kindness are your most valuable tools." Grounded and inspiring, this is Graham's road map to a happy life: "Be a fan, not a theater critic."

Though this was a short listen, this spoke directly to the part of me that always wished I was “better” as an actor. Whether I didn’t get laughs, didn’t get a good part in a show, didn’t rehearse enough, or had trouble networking and auditioning, I always kept myself under this pressure to be the best, most perfect, lovable, person.

Like the author, this came from some desire to feel important or special as a performer. I had the same excitement when I auditioned for high school shows; I too was just happy to be there. Over the years, accomplishments would mean nothing as I pined for more success, more respect, more laughs, more love.

I haven’t read or listened to anything that specifically touched on this feeling, and I’m grateful I took a chance on this book. It was cathartic to know other people feel the same pressure of imperfection, even the people that have had immense success in their lives.

This book applies to more than just actors, it applies to anyone who feels they are supposed to accomplish something great in their lives but feel like they are missing something or can’t figure out how.

I highly suggest it!

Short, to the point, full of stellar advice. A great pick-me-up for anyone at any stage in their life (I'm just married, trying to purchase a house) but would OBVIOUSLY be an amazing graduation gift.

Spot on

No, she doesn't sing or dance or do a bit. Look to Will Farrell for such a performance.

Lauren delivers timeless advice, not only for graduates, but for everyone - especially when in need of a positive perspective.

Will definitely come back to this one over and over again.

To be perfectly honest, I only purchased and listened to this book since it was narrated by the author. Sometimes I need a good comfort listen with a familiar voice.

I do wish I would have stumbled onto this essay in earlier times of my life - a must listen for soon to be college graduates!

Narration is comforting
