Are You MinnySober? The Retreat – Women in Recovery Speaker Series: Hard Knock Knocks – Laughter in Recovery | May 22

Laughter is key in sobriety! “Hard Knock Knocks” is not your typical comedy show—it’s a hilarious exploration of recovery principles and their impact on our speaker’s life as a parent, partner, and performer. With over 17 years of sobriety under her belt, comedian Elise Cole has discovered that laughter and gratitude go hand in hand. She is a walking testament to the power and proof of how laughter can help someone navigate grief, loss, fear, and life on life’s terms. Join the supportive Women In Recovery community at The Retreat for an evening of laughter, inspiration, and connection!

Elise Cole is a fixture at the renowned Acme Comedy Company in Minneapolis. With her debut album “Real Hot Dumb Dumbs,” she fearlessly delves into the comedic minefield of marriage and parenting in today’s ever-changing world.
