About This Event
Anxiety Club provides an intimate and humorous look at anxiety through the eyes and minds of some of today’s most brilliant comedians, including Sarasota’s Tiffany Jenkins, Joe List, Marc Maron, Aparna Nancherla, Mark Normand, Baron Vaughn and Eva Victor. Through exclusive interviews, stand-up performances, sketch videos, therapy and everyday life, they share their personal relationships with anxiety. Jenkins undergoes the often grueling process of exposure therapy, capturing the transformative impact of her treatment. World-renowned meditation teacher and author Tara Brach, PhD, guides another through meditation to help him transcend his fears and anxieties, while others find support from The Laugh Factory’s psychologist-in-residence and mentors in the comedy community. By blending vulnerability with humor, these comedians offer powerful insight into anxiety, the world’s most prevalent mental health condition, affecting more than 300 million people globally.
