Lynn Harris: Humor, Community and Owning Your Space
In this episode of the Six Figure Chicks Podcast, host Mel C sits down with Lynn Harris, founder of Gold Comedy, for a fun and inspiring conversation about comedy, community, taking up space, and building something of your own. Lynn shares her unconventional career journey, from being a Tanya Harding lookalike to building a business centered around comedy and creating opportunities for women. Lynn talks about the power of community and collaboration in business and why asking for help can be one of the strongest things an entrepreneur can do. She opens up about the role humor has played in her own personal growth and why comedy can be much more than entertainment—it can be a powerful tool for challenging norms, creating connection, and driving social change. She also shares practical lessons on staying visible, repurposing content, and taking action when the right opportunity comes along. From launching a podcast using content she had already created to navigating male-dominated spaces, Lynn encourages women to own their space, challenge the expectations placed on them, and recognize when it’s time to take the leap. This conversation is a reminder that you don’t have to figure everything out alone. Sometimes growth comes from asking for help, finding your people, using what you already have in a new way, and being willing to seize the moment when an opportunity appears.
