NYC stand-up comedian, Ophira Eisenberg (Ask Me Another) joined us for a great talk!

The conversation delves into the dynamics of performing in different settings, maintaining structure on the road, and the challenges of managing social media. Sophia also shares insights about living life in survival mode as an artist and balancing work and family life, offering a pragmatic perspective on the entertainment industry.
