  • EP 33: Healing Through Humor
    Oct 8 2025
    In this episode of the Happy Healthy Human Podcast, Eric sits down with Corey Martin Craig — award-winning actor, director, producer, TEDx speaker, and founder of Cool Beans Comedy in Los Angeles.

    Corey opens up about growing up in Nebraska, losing his father at a young age, being diagnosed with ADHD, OCD, and Tourette’s, and how comedy became both a shield and a source of healing. Today, he uses humor as a tool for empowerment, communication, and mental wellness by teaching kids, adults, and professionals to connect deeply and express authentically.

    This conversation dives into mental health, friendships, boundaries, and the importance of rest, therapy, and showing up for yourself before showing up for others. It’s a raw, funny, and deeply human look at what it means to become a happy, healthy human.

    Highlights: Comedy as a tool for connection and self-acceptance
    Overcoming childhood trauma and generational patterns
    EMDR therapy and daily healing practices
    The power of presence and non-verbal communication
    Boundaries and balance in relationships and friendship
    Why rest, journaling, and meditation matter more than hustle

    Sep 22 2025
    Hilary Tran is one of the most unfiltered and unapologetically real voices in American weightlifting. She's competed in Weightlifting for 10+ years, chased clean & jerks over 110kg, gone viral for her China youth camp series and rehabbed not one, but two elbow dislocations. She’s also juggled life as a corporate professional, world traveler, and controversially had a failed drug test in 2021. Through it all, she’s still standing—and she’s here to talk about a happy, healthy life with us today.

In this episode of the Happy Healthy Human Podcast, we sit down with Hilary Tran (@babyhills) — a weightlifter, world traveler, corporate hustler, and viral voice in the sport. Hilary opens up about everything from dislocating both elbows and navigating a public drug suspension, to the joy and chaos of training in China and competing at a high level without a “perfect” routine. 💬 We talk:
    • Her viral China youth camp videos
    • What Chinese weightlifters actually eat
    • How she balances work and training across continents
    • What stress management really looks like in sport

That’s wild, huh? Yeah, it is crazy. A lot could change in a year. Yeah. Yeah. Um, I feel like Yeah, a year ago you were It sounds like you were figuring a lot of things out. How’d you end up How did you end up in Tennessee, man? Um, shoot. I was working with a coach. Uh, things weren’t really working out. And, um, I kept seeing, uh, I don’t know if you know who Kefir Lambie is. He’s a coach under Proven. Well, he’s my coach now, but I kept seeing him at like every00:01:45 – 00:02:55single comp that I went to. So, um, we ended up connecting on social media. I reached out and then um yeah, started working with uh Proven Fitness and it’s kind of how I got there. A year ago, obviously you didn’t qualify for a semis. Yeah. And we were like we’re talking about questioning a lot of things. You know, you’re um going full-time into it and the first year you’re like the first year I go full-time into it. I don’t make a semi versus when I was working. I make one00:02:21 – 00:03:37and you’re like, “Dude, is this is this the right way? Am I doing the right things?” And last year was what were the games coming out of that summer? Were the games in sight 12 months ago? Um, well, I don’t think so. I just wanted to get back to a semi and then the way the season changed with being able to do both team and individual uh changed a lot I would say for me. What um what do you feel like were the big adjustments that you’ve made in the last year lifestyle wise?00:02:59 – 00:04:24Um, well, even before last year that when I missed out on semis, like I was still working full-time pretty much. Like, it was just the open where the open and quarterfinals where I was like working a lot less. So, I mean, this this is really the first year of being able to pursue it full-time. So, that’s obviously the biggest difference. And then just being at the proven camp like every day with uh Kefir like my coach and other professional athletes. It’s been the biggest game changer ever. So00:03:42 – 00:04:59yeah, super grateful and have made so much progress already. So I’m excited to see Yeah. how or what I could do this next year. Obviously, do you feel like this is the beginning of something new or like Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I I mean, you just realize like how I know people do it with like a full-time job and like they make it happen and stuff, but like just being around other athletes like that do it. That’s all they do. It’s just so much I don’t know. I it’s just so much more different like with it00:04:20 – 00:05:30actually being your job and doing it full time. It’s like okay you can see why the best stay the best because this is all they do like all day every day. Everything in their life revolves around this.
