    228: How This Army Vet & Suicide Survivor Uses Comedy to Crush Stigma {Ep 228}
    Jul 2 2025
    Laughers, ready to laugh—and maybe heal a little? In this heartwarming and hilarious episode, host Dawn Davis Womack is joined by fan-favorite Vernard Hines, aka The Laugh Therapist. Vernard—a retired Army vet, clean comedian, motivational speaker, and peer recovery specialist—gets real about his personal journey from the battlefields of Iraq to battling PTSD, with a pit stop at Reverend Peanut Butter and Jelly (seriously, you’ll want to hear that story). Vernard opens up about surviving suicide, embracing therapy, and crushing the stigma of mental health struggles, all while using comedy as his saving grace. Dawn and Vernard dive into family, faith, triggers, teamwork in marriage, and how humor can help us all unpack our baggage—or at least lighten the load. You’ll pick up practical wisdom, moving stories, unexpected giggles, and even a game when “Therapist Says, Comedian Replies” gets real. Whether you’re silently struggling or just love a relatable, uplifting story, this is the episode you can’t miss! Cheers!

    227: Murals, Mentors & the Hustle: How to Make Art Your Biz & Your Life! {Ep 227}
    Jun 25 2025
    Laughers, get ready for a vibrant ride through art, business, and creative grit. In this episode, we’re back with muralist and mixed media artist Laura Thompson—now operating out of the stunning backyard studio she built with her 80-year-old dad. From teaching art and mentoring creatives to slinging paint on 1,000-square-foot murals and crafting heartfelt pet portraits, Laura dishes on what it really takes to make art your full-time gig. Hear her top tips on business mindset for creatives, her tray-organizing hacks (collage lovers, take note), and why investing in yourself matters. We also talk about the power of mentorship and collaboration, the dream-come-true of a home studio built by family, and get a behind-the-scenes peek into her unique collage-meets-painting process. Stick around for a fun round of “Paint, Pitch, or Pass.” Whether you're an artist, entrepreneur, or just a creative soul looking for inspiration, this episode will leave you feeling fired up to chase your boldest ideas. Cheers!
