Stop Taking Things So Seriously: A Hilarious Story About Wedgies, Wardrobe Failures, Art Museums, & Having More Fun

How having fun in life is an art form
How to turn something embarrassing into something hilarious and relatable
How humor increases power and status
Why it’s important to not take yourself too seriously
How to create a bond and change the tone in any social situation
