Welcome to The Kintsugi Podcast, where you can let go of stress and perfectionism and feel more grounded and connected to life.
Five decades of laughter, chaos, and culture-shifting moments. And as I watched every special, every clip, every behind-the-scenes story, I realized something: SNL isn’t just a show. It’s a masterclass in mindset, resilience, and life.
In this episode, I’m sharing five powerful lessons from SNL’s 50-year run that you can take and make your own whether it’s about showing up before you’re ready, trusting the messy process, or risking it for the biscuit. Because life, like live TV, doesn’t wait for perfection. The show must go on at 11:30 pm, of course.
Key moments of this interview:
0:20 SNL’s 50th Anniversary Reflection
2:20 Lesson #1: You’re Never Truly Ready
4:32 Lesson #2: Trust the Process
6:33 Lesson #3: We’re Bad Before We Get Better
