About this listen

Can you rewrite your past? Merit Kahn says yes, with comedy. A raw and hilarious conversation about reinvention, identity, and reframing your story.

What if the most painful parts of your life became the funniest and most freeing?

This week, Gina sits down with playwright, performer, and keynote speaker Merit Kahn, creator of the one-woman show Optimistic Personality Disorder — a comedic rollercoaster about divorce, narcissists, motherhood, reinvention, and every chaotic plot twist life throws at us.

Together, they explore:

  • The stand-up workshop that became a life-changing mirror

  • How comedy reveals the truth therapy sometimes misses

  • Why laughter loosens the grip of old narratives

  • Rewriting your past to rewire your future

  • What “Optimistic Personality Disorder” really means

  • Why women struggle to reset their story

  • How beliefs get handed down and how to hand them back

If you need permission to rewrite your next chapter, this is your episode.

Listen and share with someone who needs a reminder that their story is still editable.
