Amma Marfo: Choosing Singlehood, Reclaiming “Spinster,” & Finding Your Funny

from Choose The Bear · host Kat Calvin

Comedian, writer, and facilitator Amma Marfo joins Kat to talk about her hour-long special Fidget Spinster—a hilarious, thoughtful look at being single by choice, living with anxiety, and building a joyful life that doesn’t orbit dating or marriage. We dig into why women flock to trustworthy celeb crushes (hi, Pedro Pascal), how comedy still sidelines single women’s stories, and practical ways to start scary new things without perfectionism. We also get into Amma’s book Cultivating Creativity, resilience vs. “grit,” first-gen students, and building community as a single adult.Watch Amma’s special (Fidget Spinster) and follow her work.If you enjoy this episode, don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe.
