You’ve probably heard that laughter is the best medicine, and science agrees. But did you know that being funny isn’t something you’re either born with or not? My guest today, Lynn Harris, founder of Gold Comedy, is here to show us that everyone can learn to tap into humor—yes, even you.In this episode, Lynn shares how comedy is not only a tool for entertainment but also for empowerment, especially for women over 40 and 50 navigating midlife changes. We talk about why women are often conditioned to laugh at jokes instead of making them, how comedy builds confidence, and why humor is such a powerful form of self care.Lynn also gives practical advice for midlife women who might want to try comedy for fun, personal growth, or even as a new career path. Whether you dream of stepping on stage, adding more lightness into your conversations, or simply boosting your self confidence, this conversation will inspire you to see your funny side in a whole new way.What you’ll learn in this episode:Why midlife is the perfect time to embrace your funny sideHow comedy builds confidence and connectionPractical steps to notice humor in everyday lifeWhy humor is one of the most powerful forms of self care for women in midlifeResources and links mentioned in this episode:Connect with Lynn Harris and learn more about Gold Comedy: goldcomedy.comFollow Gold Comedy on Instagram: @goldcomedyTry laughter yoga!
