***P.S. Help us grow the podcast***

• Give feedback. Let us know what topics you would like us to cover. We did a brain dump a few months ago and we were all proud of our ideas, but now we look back on some of the topics we came up with and 🤮. We need your help. What would you like to hear us talk about? What are your favorite episodes? What are your least favorite? (It's ok. We wear big girl panties now (100% cotton briefs for me - Tracy). We want to serve you, our audience. So we need to know how we can bet do that.
• Share our podcast with your friends and family. Help us grow our audience by sharing on socials as well as just direct message to your gals. If your mom would LOVE to LOL with us, but she doesn't know how to find a podcast....no worries! We didn't either. But Cathrine's daughter and my son helped us. And now we know. Grab your mom's phone and find our podcast for her. Like it, follow it, subscribe to it etc. and hit the notifications button so she will know when we have new episodes (which we are extremely proud to say has been consistently every Wednesday at noon CST).

***MORE ABOUT TRACY DEGRAAF COMEDY***

Hi Friends, Tracy here. My husband and I survived raising 5 boys and there were so many funny stories along the way. Now is my time to "show and tell." 🥳 I put these stories in my book and on stage in my comedy act. It's so much fun.

If you're new to my comedy, here's a little about me.

I'm from the Chicago area and I perform my one-woman clean comedy show “Life Happens Laugh Anyway” nationwide for both corporate and non-profit organizations.

My comedy combines two of my passions: Christianity and breast cancer awareness. (I was diagnosed in 2016 with stage 1 Invasive Ductal Carcinoma...a fancy name for breast cancer. Currently, I'm doing great and am cancer free!)

As a Christian and a breast cancer survivor, I use my platform to inspire women spiritually and motivate them to schedule their breast cancer screenings. I like to tell women “I want you to know Jesus, but I don’t want you to meet Him face-to-face just yet.” 🙏❤️

I pull material from my experiences as a wife, mother of five grown sons and middle-aged woman. I love performing for Girls Night Out Events, Women’s Conferences, Fundraisers, Breast Cancer Awareness Events, Cancer Survivor Events and more. I was trained for comedy at The Second City in Chicago. I'm happily married to my husband, Ron (a.k.a. Muffin) since 1989 and we are now empty nesters! 😁 We can't stop smiling. Our boys are spread out between Colorado, Illinois and Indiana.

I publish a weekly podcast called Life Happens Laugh Anyway with my bff Cathrine and it is so much fun. We started the podcast when the world shut down during Covid since all of my shows were canceled. It's a hoot. We tackle a new topic weekly that we think our audience will care about and discuss it in an entertaining way. We close each episode with some spiritual encouragement. 👍
