“You are your own big break. You can make your own opportunities. It doesn't take a million people to believe in you. It just takes one person.” - Lin Sun

Being a mother is one of the hardest jobs in the world. It can also be the motivating factor to start a comedy career. This is what our guest on today’s episode experienced after giving birth to her son. She created an outlet for herself in being a comic and became an absolute powerhouse. So much so that she now has a 30 minute special on Peacock! She also went viral on laugh factory’s instagram, getting over one million views on her video.

Lin Sun joins us on today’s episode to share some laughs and advice for young comics and women trying to make it in this male dominated industry. From stories about her super interesting past, to how she got her big break, Lin gives us an authentic look into what it takes to make it in comedy by being yourself, connecting to the audience, and allowing yourself to be vulnerable. As well as a discussion about healing through the process of learning to become a comic and the personal development that inevitably happens along the way.
