494 - Talking About Depression & Mental Wellness: Gary Gulman on Using Comedy as Therapy

Gary Gulman is a comedian I love as a professional, a person and a friend. He first came on my podcast in 2016. When he was severely depressed. He could barely get out of bed. I admired him. Because he was really honest about it. He's doing better now. But there's no such thing as perfect when it comes to mental health. We all have our battles. Whether it's with self-doubt, fear of getting out of our comfort zone, wanting to be liked... or if it's the intense spectrum of clinical depression, which Gary brings light to. And laughter in his new HBO comedy special, "The Great Depresh."   Hey. I'm giving away free copies of my new book, "The Side Hustle Bible." It's a collection of 177 proven ways to make extra income.
