Coaching
If you're just starting out in standup or if you're a veteran who wants to get to more of your truth, talk to me about coaching. Getting a laugh is one thing, but getting to the truth and getting a laugh is truly satisfying. My approach is helping you find what it is that is truly unique to you and building on that. And the process is fun! I bring 41 years of experience as a successful standup comic to coaching. I've been on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson nine times, numerous other late night shows, I've down several HBO and Showtime specials, and I won The American Comedy Award for Best Female Stand Up comic.
So contact me here for more details or to make an appointment, and let's work together. I think you will love it.

[is] wonderful. It is funny, tragic, horrifying, and holy. Holy because this heroine’s journey is real.
Los Angeles Times
... Ladman has such clever, well-written material and such a breezy, unassuming delivery that it would be easy to overlook just how good she is: Her act seems effortless.
