Healing with Humor

With Jen Mason


On This Episode

Today’s special guest on the HRart of It Podcast is both a licensed acupuncturist and stand up comedian! The always funny Jen Mason chats with Samm about the incredible healing modality that is humor and what it can mean for creating connections, easing burnout and cultivating energy. Jen explains that along with many other positives, learning how to incorporate humor into team interactions can completely change the dynamic of the group. She’s also a huge champion of pursuing the thing that scares you most (such as performing your first stand up set) in order to break down the barrier of fear that is more than likely holding you back.
