Show Notes
<p dir="ltr">Actor and comedian <a href="https://www.instagram.com/shrrycola/?hl=en">Sherry Cola</a> often finds wild parallels between the characters she plays on screen and her personal life, including her new role in the hit dramedy <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vWwWjy6r_0">Shrinking</a>. </p>
<p dir="ltr">She breaks down how the show normalizes therapy with humor, what she’s learned from years of therapy, and why she picks roles that break the stereotype of the model minority. She also shares how playing a queer character in Freeform’s Good Trouble helped her finally come out to her parents. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Plus, how Sherry’s early career on the radio prepared her for the big screen. </p>
