Lizzo joins Dax Shepard to talk about her journey from a Detroit church upbringing to Grammy-winning stardom. She shares stories of being mocked for 'talking white' and loving anime in Houston, losing her father at 19 who believed she could be the next great flute player, and playing in a dozen Minneapolis bands at once. The conversation covers the delayed success of 'Truth Hurts,' the story behind the vulnerable interview that sparked 'My Skin,' and why fame makes people fear the other shoe will drop. Lizzo also explains how she learned to turn insults back on bullies, a tactic she calls emotional judo.
