Manek is featured in the Q & A section of the March 2018 issue of the Toastmaster.

In this episode, Manek joins Greg and Ryan to discuss how being a Toastmaster made her better at her craft, and how she approaches her work like a doctor.

Manek also shares how stand-up comedy taught her about vulnerability, why we shouldn’t apologize and how bombing on stage reinforced the importance of making sure to get other people’s name right.
