MandySmith

I'm a writer, comedian, and actress who came into the last two by way of motherhood. I believe we're meant to show up as 'all of ourselves and for me, it took me forgetting myself to finally get back to being all of myself. I have three amazing kids, Scarlet (10), Sterling (7), and Shepherd (4), and my husband Matt and I moved from Los Angeles to Austin almost three years ago to give them a wild and free childhood. And to avoid paying for LA Private school (best choice!) I fell into comedy here, and now co-host "Funny Girl's Guide" on Apple Podcasts, and have hosted guests like Chelsea Handler, Elizabeth Gilbert, and Iliza Shlesinger. I also have a comedic lifestyle blog, Polite As Fudge, but my number one job is to listen to stories about Roblox I don't understand. I'm here for it all, working on being more present, and oh yeah, I have two German Shepherds, a geriatric Sheltie, and a parrot.
