This week I spiraled out with hilarious standup comedian & Julliard-trained violist Isabel Hagen! (The Tonight Show, Just For Laughs.) We talked obsessing over what people think of you, the shame spiraling that performing comedy evokes and how Isabel deals with BOMBING,  addiction/ recovery, why being vulnerable feels both so good and oh so bad,  what it would be like to be a person who isn't plagued by constant shame spiraling, and so much more!
 
Plus. Isabel shares a shame story about having finally decided to stick up for herself- and in doing so ending up accidentally pushing back HARD against a random person who was truly just trying to help her.
