Vulnerable EP46: How YouTube Star Anna Akana Turns Tragedy Into Comedy

Today on Vulnerable, my guest is the multi-talented Anna Akana. In 2011 she launched her YouTube channel that now has over 2.8 million subscribers. She is a writer, actress, filmmaker and musician. I’m convinced there’s NOTHING this girl can’t do.  Nothing is off limits in my conversation with her and we talk about therapy, cosmetic enhancements, the evolution of feminism, using her trauma in stand-up comedy, dealing with trolls, friend breakups and more. Is Anna leaving YouTube to become an OnlyFans star? Will I be joining her?? Find out now! You can follow Anna @annaakana on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Twitter, and subscribe to her YouTube channel.
