    17 - Getting The Last Laugh with Lynn Ruth Miller

    At an age when most people are struggling to get out of bed, Lynn Ruth Miller is running circles around people half her age. Now 87, this octogenarian energizer bunny, has solidified a comedy career on both sides of the Atlantic, a career that didn’t even start until age 70.   Some say the best comedy comes from pain. This could explain Lynn Ruth‘s stand-up success.  Aside from her advanced years, which truly sets  apart from most comedians, her life journey included a severely dysfunctional upbringing, two failed marriages, anorexia and surprise, low self-esteem.  Not only did Lynn Ruth dive head-first into comedy at age 70, she took an opportunity to perform in England and ended up relocating there, earning accolades and new fans in the process.  More importantly she has embraced and her age with joy and acceptance.    I’ve interviewed a number of record holders for my podcast but if few if any have Lynn Ruth‘s fearless attitude, indomitable spirit and zest for life. Even if her comedy was not your cup of English tea, her interview alone is worth her  insights  on the importance of attitude and mindset.   Enjoy Episode 17 and Lynn Ruth.    Lynn Ruth Also Discusses:   What it feels like to be 87 Her creative interests outside of comedy Different audience perspectives around the world  Her talk about optimistic aging Having a show already scheduled for her 100th birthday      Links from this episode:   Lynn Ruth Miller Website:  http://www.lynnruthmiller.net Lynn Ruth Miller Facebook:   https://www.facebook.com/groups/1325208014354325 Lynn Ruth Miller Book Link: http://mybook.to/lynnruthmiller    Alicyn Yaffee (Theme Music): https://www.sonicbids.com/band/alicynyaffee Marc Yaffee Comedy: www.laughwithmarc.com  Marc Yaffee Corporate website: bookmarcnow.com  How Does That Happen on iTunes:  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how-does-that-happen-podcast/id1451558924 Alicyn Yaffee (Theme Music): https://www.sonicbids.com/band/alicynyaffee Marc Yaffee Comedy: www.laughwithmarc.com  Marc Yaffee Corporate website: bookmarcnow.com  How Does That Happen on iTunes:  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how-does-that-happen-podcast/id1451558924
