"You&amp;#x27;d think Sarah Silverman (the brilliantly irreverent potty-mouthed comic) would be stuck in a perma-adolescence, what with the pigtails and all. But behind that exterior, the 43-year-old is quite mature. (Years of therapy, people.) Listen in as the funnylady, who&amp;#x27;s now starring alongside Charlize Theron and Amanda Seyfried in A Million Ways to Die in the West, tells us all how to woman up: Do get your sweat on most days Just to keep your shell healthy and feel good. Don&amp;#x27;t clutter your life with stuff you can&amp;#x27;t affordKeep your overhead low. Get a car with good mileage. Work toward buying your apartment. Shop at Gap. Enough with obsessing over the latest bag. It&amp;#x27;s a purse. It holds stuff. Get a backpack. You&amp;#x27;re being ridiculous. Do brush and floss your teeth every day for reals. Death creeps in through the gums. And scrape your gross tongue. Don&amp;#x27;t expect someone to &amp;quot;complete&amp;quot; youI don&amp;#x27;t want to make a guy whole; I want him to come whole. I just realized I said &amp;quot;come whole.&amp;quot; Do be with someone who gets turned on by you being turned on in bedNot everything has to be tit for tat, but a little genuine reciprocity is key. Don&amp;#x27;t be a bitter ex I adore the men I&amp;#x27;ve dated and tend to stay close friends. They become family. I could be bitter, but bitterness feels bad. And it&amp;#x27;s aging. Do listen to your momShe may surprise you. The first time I got my heart broken, I thought I was gonna die. My mom was like, &amp;quot;Don&amp;#x27;t build a wall. Don&amp;#x27;t let this keep you from falling in love again. Even though it hurts, it&amp;#x27;s worth it.&amp;quot; I never forgot it. Don&amp;#x27;t lack initiativePeople tell me, &amp;quot;I want to be a writer.&amp;quot; OK, then write. There&amp;#x27;s no trick. No one&amp;#x27;s gonna knock on your door and ask you to write. Just write, dummy. Put your 10,000 hours in (see: Malcolm Gladwell), and be undeniable. Also, don&amp;#x27;t let defeat discourage youI got fired from Saturday Night Live and fired from my next job, a sitcom, right after. It made me gun-shy. But I lived through it. I kept going. As Charlie Kaufman said: &amp;quot;Do not worry about failure. Failure is a badge of honor. It means you risked failure.&amp;quot; Do start reflectingI do therapy. If therapy isn&amp;#x27;t your thing, then go to church or get a Pema Ch&amp;amp;#246;dr&amp;amp;#246;n book for $9 on Audible&amp;amp;#8212;whatever you need to do to live an examined life. It&amp;#x27;ll make your life (and the lives of people around you) exponentially richer. Don&amp;#x27;t talk sh-t about yourselfYou&amp;#x27;ll start to believe it. Instead of droning on and on about how the tops of your strong, working thighs touch, why don&amp;#x27;t you ask your friends how they&amp;#x27;re doing, huh? Do be nice to yourselfI&amp;#x27;ve caught myself feeling utter disgust looking at myself naked, and then I realized: If I was someone else, I would think, She&amp;#x27;s beautiful and strong! If we were half as nice to ourselves as we are to any f--king stranger on the street, we&amp;#x27;d be winning. Don&amp;#x27;t hate on your grown-ass skinI know, aging is like a really slow-moving horror movie, especially for women. But the lines on our faces are valuable. When I see people with fillers or weirdo stretched-out faces, I&amp;#x27;m like, You look crazy. (Except Jennifer Aniston. I don&amp;#x27;t know what she does, but she looks f--king great!) Your skin is gonna change. Mine is changing now. It&amp;#x27;s getting looser. It&amp;#x27;s how it is, OK? "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
