Katie Love comic and writer joins us today on the podcast! Katie has been living and working in LA for over 20 years and made it her life's work to share her love of laughter and stories with the world.
From performing on stage to helping startups communicate their message, honesty and humor go hand in hand for Katie and she continues to strive for her best in all of her different pursuits.
In our conversation, we cover some of the recent projects she has been involved in, her family history and early experiences in comedy. We also talk about what it means to be on stage and share your inner world with the public, how humor can heal and the value of pushing sensitive buttons.
