Chloe Mikala: Risk-averse but on stage anyway
Description
Chloe Mikala is the kind of person who can destroy a stand-up set, headline a comedy variety show, play an EMT on Chicago P.D., co-captain a travel flag football team, and still insist she’s “just sending emails.”
We talk about what it actually means to be Type A without being unbearable, why doing your “basic” well already puts you ahead of most people, and how to hustle without losing your mind.
Naturally, we also cover astrology charts, Gemini slander, why she refuses to swim in shark territory, how to calmly coexist with black bears, and the historical connection between cats and the bubonic plague. Yes. That sentence is real.
It’s thoughtful, unhinged in the best way, and deeply funny. Basically, peak Chloe.
