87. Cyrus Veyssi Unpacks Using Comedy To Combat Anxiety & Giving Others A Permission Slip To Be Themselves

Cyrus Veyssi is here and we couldn’t be more over the moon about it! Cyrus is everyone’s favorite Iranian American non-binary content creator, spreading joy across the interwebs with their humor, intellect, family fun, clack backs, and snatched looks.
Today, Cyrus joined the familia to unpack: corporate America confidence, shifting definitions of “success”, using comedy to combat anxiety, advice for someone who doesn’t know how to talk to their family about their queerness or mental health, how to show up as a support person for someone you love, and so much more.
