Emotional Hangovers After A Bad Set

A Chat with Nurse Shannon Sullivan, Pt. 2 (Messed-Up to Set-Ups #143)

Hello, Friend! In this episode of Messed-Up to Set-Ups, I’m joined again by Shannon Sullivan, and we get into some of the most practical and eye-opening conversations I’ve had lately about comedy, mindset, and momentum. Shannon brings her perspective as a nurse and holistic nurse coach to a discussion about why comedians think the way they do, how to handle the emotional hangover after a bad set, and why so much of growth comes down to learning how to stop making every moment mean something bigger than it is. We also talk about noise, boundaries, resilience, and the hidden psychological battles that happen before, during, and after comedian’s step on stage, all in a way that I think will really speak to anyone trying to grow in comedy in particular or life in general. Tune in!

Twice a week, I’m talking with comedians and other interesting people about what it takes to get better at this weird thing we call stand-up. We’re not just workshopping the comedy; we’re workshopping the comedian.
