Tig Notaro on How Passion, Integrity & Vulnerability Turned Her into a Standup Comedy Sensation
How can your authenticity and vulnerability open a door to connection? Tig Notaro, Grammy and Emmy nominated standup comedian, NYT bestselling author, writer, and podcaster took a chance to be honest in her standup when she had dealt with just a few months of grief and cancer - and it made her audience love her even more. She shares how to stay grounded with your integrity, wake yourself up from falling into old habits, and stop comparing yourself so you can focus on doing the thing you love for yourself.
