The thing that bubbles up the most when I'm around other people is that I feel a joy of being alive. But I also am a very sensitive person and have many heavier feelings. It can be tiresome after a while to only do comedy, especially after you grow as a person. It starts to feel like you're playing an older version of yourself.

Jenny SlateI learned that I was able to focus. I've always thought of myself as somebody who is like either it's there or it isn't there.

You can ask it to take a back seat and replace that front row seat with focus.
