Ever wonder how improv can change your life? In this HRchat episode Lynda Goodfriend joins Bill Banham to unpack the magic of acting and improv classes and how lessons can be taken into the office.
Lynda Goodfriend is an American actress who is perhaps best known for playing Lori Beth Cunningham (née Allen), Richie's girlfriend then wife on the TV sitcom Happy Days.
Having built lasting connections with legends like Ron Howard and Henry Winkler, Lynda shares fond memories and lessons from her time on the iconic sitcom. She brings to light the power of improvisation, recounting a friend’s inspiring journey from stage fright to public speaking prowess. Through personal stories, we highlight how embracing life’s spontaneity can boost your confidence and communication skills.
As the great Arthur 'The Fonz' Fonzarelli once said, "A positive attitude can really make dreams come true." Lynda exemplifies this attitude and shares good vibes as she discusses how acting classes nurture authenticity and vulnerability, crucial traits for personal growth and leadership.
