    Enya Martin on Confidence, Criticism and Showing up Authentically Online

    Send us Fan Mail What does it really take to succeed as a female comedian in a male-dominated industry? Not just the punchlines. Not just the viral moments. But the grit, the resilience, the business strategy, and the confidence to back yourself when the spotlight is on. In this week's episode of The Lucy Gernon Show, I am joined by the incredible Enya Martin, the woman behind the viral Facebook sensation Giz A Laugh who has gone from posting two-minute comedy videos over a decade ago to selling out arenas across Ireland and as far as Australia. But this conversation goes far deeper than comedy. You’ll hear a more vulnerable side of Enya. A woman who has built a global brand, navigated business ownership, and developed the kind of confidence that allows her to stand alone on stage, in rooms traditionally dominated by men and own it. If you are a woman in leadership who wants to build bold confidence, sharpen your executive presence, and back yourself unapologetically, this episode is unmissable.
