About this Event
Join Carly Schwartz, former San Francisco Examiner editor in chief and founding editor of HuffPost's SF bureau, for the launch of her debut memoir: I'll Try Anything Twice: Misadventures of a Self-Medicated Life.
In conversation with actor and performer Cassidy Lehrman, Schwartz will discuss how her quest to escape from depression and addiction led her on a dizzying international journey through multiple communes and a maze of mental health treatments, before she found recovery where she least expected it. She will explore universal topics of mental illness stigmatization, substance use denial, privilege, power, and the pressure of navigating a cutthroat career—all through the lens of her wildly unconventional experience.Described by early readers as "Eat Pray Love gone horribly wrong," Schwartz's book offers a vivid, candid, and darkly humorous take on the search for belonging, the definition of success, and the risks we're willing to take in order to learn how to love ourselves. The event will include a fireside chat, audience Q&A, live reading, and book signing. Books will be available for purchase, or you can pre-order your copy with an event ticket.
