I am thrilled to share with you my TEDx Talk on the incredible power of self-deprecating humor. In it, I share the single joke that changed my life, taking me from fast-food reject (a Wendy's manager told me I didn't "have what it takes") to the halls of Congress.
Self-deprecating humor can help us connect with each other by being vulnerable, authentic, and real—and it's a secret power that anyone can harness, including you.
Congressman Keller’s inspirational story and sense of humor were a huge hit – standing ovation!
