About Madison

From minimizing financial risks on Wall Street to crafting risqué jokes for crowds in some of New York City's most prominent comedy clubs, Madison Malloy's journey through adulthood has been one for the books— well, one book, specifically: Time to Lighten the F*ck Up: A Self-Help Guide with A Side of Humor, her debut self-help guide.

Packed with Madison's quick wit and unconventional wisdom, Time to Lighten the F*ck Up is equal parts self-help and belly laughs. Perfect for those who are over seeking age-old enlightenment for their modern problems, Madison details some of the biggest lessons life's thrown her way and doles out answers to your most complicated questions without asking if you've given meditation a fair chance yet.

Before becoming a comedian, podcast host, producer and checking 'author' off her ever-expanding resume, Madison's degree in finance led her from her home in Denver, Colorado, to her stint as a fixed-income sales trader on Wall Street. Following the market crash of 2008, she jumped into a whole new adventure by pursuing her dream of performing her comedy routine for audiences across NYC.

Over the next 12 years, she would write and produce reality TV shows, discover her love of entrepreneurship, and become a proud crypto enthusiast. Today, Madison skillfully shares her array of interests and knowledge during her public speaking engagements and on her weekly self-help-meets-business podcast, Next To Madison.

Motivated to help others overcome negativity, find financial freedom, and boost their confidence to cultivate lives they'll love, Madison's authenticity, humor, and (tastefully placed) expletives within Time to Lighten the F*ck Up encourage readers to carve their own bold paths to self-discovery.

Relatable, hysterical, and ready to inspire, Madison is here to remind us all that on the way to leveling up, we’ll need to lighten the f*ck up, too.
