Today my guest is Shohana Sharmin, a Bangladeshi-Canadian comedian, writer, theatre artist, and host of the podcast, “Finders Grievers.” Shohana is also the creator and a cast member of the critically acclaimed award-winning dark sketch comedy revue "Dead Parents Society."
Shohana lost her mom four years ago when she was just in her 20s and stopped by to talk with me about
-feeling like other comedians who had lost their parents in their 20s were the ones who understood her (as opposed to peers her own age)
- toxic positivity and being conditioned to be only happy, accepting sadness in order to avoid isolation
- how weird it is needing to go to the mall right after someone dies (can relate)
- the process behind writing sketches about death and grieving
- needing to be in an ok place so your audience isn’t concerned for you
- how comedy is not a replacement for therapy
- how we laugh the hardest at things we relate to
- how therapists always schedule sessions for Tuesday
- why we’re self-deprecating as comedians (it’s not because we’re confident)
- recognizing being lucky on the spectrum of support during loss
- and how universal death is (at some point, someone you love will die)
