EPISODE 62 with the Hilarious Warrior Miss Kristen!!!
Kristen Howard is a lifelong lover of words, wit, and finding the funny in hard things. She is a veteran, a military spouse, and a mom of four who teaches stand-up comedy to fellow veterans as a way to process life’s challenges and connect through laughter. She’s a writer, performer, and teacher who believes that when we tell our stories, especially the hard ones, we make room for others to do the same.
