This week we have our friend Sydnee Washington on the pod, and this episode is everything we hoped it would be: hilarious, honest, chaotic, vulnerable, and completely unforgettable.

Sydnee is currently on tour with her show My Black Barbie Story, and while she was in Nashville, we got to sit down and talk about everything from childhood and comedy to anxiety, stage fright, people pleasing, and learning how to finally be yourself.

In this episode, we talk about:

Sydnee’s childhood and what she was like as a kid

Growing up with older caregivers and feeling different

Learning struggles, embarrassment, and being hyper-aware

How comedy became an outlet

Anxiety, stage fright, and self-doubt

People pleasing and anxious attachment

Why the funniest people are often the most sensitive

Her one-of-a-kind storytelling style

The truth behind My Black Barbie Story

Sydnee is one of the funniest people we know, but what makes this conversation so special is how open she is. She shares her story in a way that is both deeply real and unbelievably funny — and we know so many of you are going to relate to her honesty.

If you love comedy, storytelling, and conversations about how creative minds actually work, this episode is for you.

Make sure you check out Sydnee Washington on tour and follow along with My Black Barbie Story.
