According to Beth Sherman laughter and humour are and should be an essential part of my life and work.

In today’s episode, I am speaking with Beth who is a 7 x Emmy award winning comedy writer and comedian.

We discuss:

· How humour helps us connect with others, allowing us to build trust and inspire action

· Why humour is essential in helping us through challenging times

· How humour is all about amplifying the truth and can help us to address the elephant in the room

Beth shares her wisdom and insight built on many years of observing human nature and those who are skilled in helping us to see the obvious and absurd in life.
