Comedian Robin Phoenix | How to Transition Out of The Military
We had a discussion with Robin about her life in the military, her dedication to helping fellow veterans recover, and her current journey as a national comedian, all while raising two children. After serving in the United States Army for over 20 years, including 5 combat tours to Afghanistan and Iraq, Robin's new mission is to heal people, organizations, and communities through humor.
She has been featured on USA Today, ABC, CBS, and Fox and was voted Charleston's Best Comic of 2022. Robin has also performed on comedy tours with Darren Knight for Southern Momma & Friends and with Red Squirrel & Ashley Gutermuth for Glitter & Grit. Additionally, she is the executive producer of Operation HEAL*ARIOUS: America's Funniest Veterans & Military Spouses.
While she enjoys doing stand-up comedy, her true passion is the applied and therapeutic use of humor. That's why she created HEAL*ARIOUS, a therapeutic humor program. Robin is a thought leader and speaker on the use of humor for improved psychological performance. She is a Level 3 Certified Humor Professional with the Association for Applied and Therapeutic Humor and is also a comedy boot camp instructor for the Armed Services Arts Partnership.
