On this episode of the Radical Candor podcast, Amy and Jason answer a listener's question about how to give feedback about nervous laughter. As you may have noticed, we like to laugh on this podcast when we think something is funny. But, did you know that a lot of laughter doesn’t have anything to do with hilarity? In fact, in the absence of an underlying medical condition, laughing is often a stress response — a way for people to regulate their emotions and avoid being overcome with anxiety.
Listen to the episode:
The Question:
How do I coach people with nervous laughter habits? I evangelize Radical Candor at work heavily, but I struggle with this one. How do I tell people, ‘You laugh too much and too loud and it’s annoying and it’s holding you back in your career?’
I’m guessing the answer will be something similar to that, but as much as I preach, I’m stuck. I’ve read that people with nervous laughter can get worse the more they think about it. How do you tell someone to ‘stop laughing’?
Help!
