Episode Description:  In this episode, we explore a topic often left unspoken but widely experienced—how child abuse professionals use dark humor to cope with the emotional weight of their work. Joined by neurohumorist Karyn Buxman, an expert in the therapeutic power of laughter, we discuss how humor serves as a lifeline in challenging environments. Discover the fine line between humor as a coping mechanism and when it might become harmful.  Download Transcript   Guest:   Karyn Buxman, RN, MSN, CSP, CPAE  Neurohumorist  Speaker Hall of Fame         Show Notes:  In this episode, host Christina Rouse dives into a delicate and seldom discussed topic in the child advocacy field about how professionals use gallows humor and dark humor to cope with the emotional toll of their work. Joined by neurohumorist Karyn Buxman, this episode explores the science behind humor, how it serves as a tool for stress relief, and when it may cross the line. Karyn shares her expert insights on how humor impacts brain function, helping professionals recover from amygdala hijack moments and regain cognitive control in the face of trauma. Through a dynamic conversation, Christina and Karyn discuss how laughter can be both a lifeline and, at times, a liability when used without care in sensitive environments.  The episode also features sound bites from professionals on the frontlines of child abuse prevention, discussing their experiences with humor as a coping mechanism, and  Karyn details the 7 Humor Competencies of High Performers she developed: Rapport/Bond, Context, Authenticity, Safety, Timing, Content, and Delivery.  The episode encourages listeners to understand the nuances of gallows humor, while also offering practical advice on fostering healthier workplace humor that doesn't cross ethical boundaries. Karyn provides guidance for leaders on creating supportive environments and using humor mindfully, emphasizing that while abused children are no joke, laughter can help heal the caregivers and improve the care provided to victims.  Hit the subscribe button now!      Key Quote:  “Humor enables us to rise above any situation, even if only for a few seconds.

For the last 30 years, she has worked with clients like NASA, the Mayo Clinic, Cigna, and 800+ others to empower with healthy humor. She runs custom retreats at her HumorLab in San Diego, and focuses on high performers in the ROI of laughter. She is quick to distinguish that humor ≠ comedy. Her next book, Funny Means Money: Strategic Humor for Influence & World Domination is due to be published by Forbes Books in winter 2020.  Tune in as Karyn shares…  - what it means to be a neurohumorist  - the relationship between humor and health  - Norman Cousins’ story, and how it inspired her research  - the range of people she works with – from patients to professionals, employees to employers  - that she is working on a new book for Forbes Books – about humor and influence  - that humor is a whole-brain process that fires off a cascade of neurotransmitters  - that humor has the power to heal, connect, and enlighten  - that humor is a holistic complementary process in healing – it reduces inflammation, which is known to exacerbate disease  - the cardiovascular benefits of laughter – it is an aerobic exercise  - that laughter can increase the healing properties of the blood – studies have shown that it increases the presence of IgA and T-killer cells, as well as an increased general immune response (in both the short-term and long-term)  - that laughter = better blood pressure  - that the regular practice of healthy humor lowers bad cholesterol and increases good cholesterol  - that healthy humor can aid in the release of tension, as well as increase one’s tolerance to pain  - that humor lowers cortisol, and can lower blood glucose among pre-diabetic and diabetic patients  - that laughter can reduce the occurrence of kidney disease among diabetes patients  - that humor can influence epigenetics  - that what we do in medicine isn’t working across the board – and if we know laughter and healthy humor works, it’s worth adding into a holistic health regimen  - that humor decreases anxiety, and increases creativity  - the close relationship between laughter and tears – and why both are healthy  - that humor can allow us to express anger and frustration in a socially-acceptable way  - that just thinking about humor can have the same effect on the brain that humor does – it has an anticipatory effect  - Victor Borge’s quote: “Laughter is the shortest distance between two people” – and Karyn’s addition, “Laughter has no accent” – it can connect one and all  - that laughter releases oxytocin, which is a bonding hormone  - the importance of communication, and how bad for the physiology isolation can be  - that exhibiting humor increases likeability, which is important for influence and connection  - her personal connection to invisible illness: through her sons and her mother  - that laughter can help us change our relationship to illness: from victim to victor  - the 2% solution: 2% of 24 hrs is 10 min.
