On this episode of GoalChat, host Debra Eckerling has a serious conversation about humor on this week’s GoalChat with multi-hyphenate authors Amy Ferris, Mighty Gorgeous and Marrying George Clooney, and Rob Kutner, Snot Goblins and The Jews: 5000 Years and Counting. The panel talks about their experiences and projects – in addition to books, Rob is an Emmy-winning late-night TV writer and Amy has written screenplays, as well as their takes on writing, tapping into humor, and more.

Is humor nature or nurture? While having a sense of humor may be a little bit of both, it is a tool for self-care, creativity, and kindness.

Goals

– Rob: Find something people are afraid of or intimidated by and find something stupid or ridiculous about it; put something creative into the world that wasn’t there before

– Amy: Watch for the things that bring us joy, be kinder to the people who are kind to us. Write, be truthful, love better.

Final Thoughts:

– Rob: You’ve got something to say that no one has ever said before that others need to hear

– Amy: Be loud, be audacious, be bold. Don’t let anybody tell you that you’re not enough. Go out there, do your thing, be you because you are beyond enough.
