Have you heard of Heather Land? Maybe not, and that’s OK. Allow me to introduce you: she’s a comedian who made a splash with YouTube videos that make me laugh out loud every time.

Here’s one of my favorites:

Isn’t she hilarious? All her videos are short and sweet—and full of hard truths that, if we’re being honest, we can all relate to. I like to start my day with a laugh, and Heather’s videos do it every time!

Heather’s been on tour all summer, which reminded me that I had the amazing opportunity to chat with her about everything from how the videos started to her newfound success and the lessons she’s learned along the way.

Our conversation is about twenty minutes long, filmed back when her videos were just a few months old. A lot has changed for Heather since we talked, but she’s a class act and as funny as ever. Bookmark this page if you need to, but definitely set aside the time to listen to the whole thing. Enjoy!
