    We had a powerful conversation on the podcast today—yeah, even about a zombie apocalypse—but underneath the humor was something real. We talked about how laughter keeps us human, even in the darkest scenarios. Humor isn't just entertainment—it's medicine. It breaks fear, builds connection, and reminds us we're not alone. Because truth is, whether it's a zombie apocalypse or just everyday life, isolation is where we struggle the most. Community is survival. Connection is healing.
