There is goodness and light out in the world.
I just know it.
Let’s find that bright goodness together, shall we?
On The Funny Kind™ podcast, I’ll be talking to myself (I mean, when am I not), or with others discussing topics ranging from silly rants to deep spiritual thoughts.
I promise we’ll laugh, reflect, and find inspiration while bringing heart, humor and hope to everyday life.
What You’ll Find on The Funny Kind™ :
Honest Conversations About Healing and Personal Growth
We talk about the real stuff up in here.
The people pleasing. The shame spirals. The overthinking. The fear. The awkward life transitions. The chin hair. The wrinkles. The “why am I still struggling with this at my age?” moments.
Episodes explore range from silly talks about silly things to deep dives into emotional healing, self worth, resilience, faith, relationships, identity, and what it actually looks like to grow through hard things without pretending you have it all together.
Meaningful Insights and Guest Interviews
Some guests will make you laugh until you snort coffee through your nose. Others will completely wreck you emotionally in the best possible way.
From deep conversations about healing and faith to funny stories, everyday wisdom, and unexpected moments of connection, these interviews remind us that everyone is carrying something, we are more alike than different, and that nobody is as alone as they think they are.
Humor in the Middle of Hard Things
I firmly believe healing and humor can exist in the same conversation as deep talks.
Sometimes we are talking about deep emotional wounds. Sometimes we are talking about menopause, weird family dynamics, embarrassing life moments, or the completely unhinged things we do as humans trying to survive adulthood.
Honestly, most episodes are a combination of all of it.
Because sometimes laughter is what finally helps us breathe again.

What happens when life takes a turn you never saw coming?
In this episode, my fellow Elder Bun, Bron Watson, joins me for a heartfelt conversation about repurposing, serenity, and finding your footing when life doesn't go according to plan. Bron shares how unexpected challenges reshaped her perspective, deepened her understanding of healing, and inspired her to create The Serenity Project—a space where science and soul, evidence and experience, come together.
We talk about finding peace in uncertainty, letting go of the pressure to make sense of every hardship, embracing the gifts of this season of life, and discovering that sometimes what feels like an ending is actually an invitation into something new.
Bron offers so many nuggets of wisdom, including the power of being where your feet are.
It's an honest, hopeful, and encouraging conversation about choosing serenity over chaos and being repurposed rather than defeated.
About Bron:
Bron Watson is a nurse, educator, entrepreneur, and founder of The Serenity Project and The Social Coach. Through her work, podcast, and upcoming book Be Where Your Feet Are, she helps people reconnect with themselves, navigate life's uncertainties with compassion, and find peace in the midst of it all.
