This week on Brews & Banter, Roman and Frank welcome Yvonne Conte to the studio for a heartfelt and unforgettable conversation about her latest book, Beneath Her Smile.

Yvonne is an accomplished author, speaker, comedian, and corporate trainer who has spent years helping people find balance between their professional and personal lives. During our conversation, we dive into the inspiration behind Beneath Her Smile, exploring the real-life experiences and emotional moments that helped shape this powerful story.

One of the most moving moments of the episode came when Roman asked Yvonne about her time working in the construction industry. The question brought back a deeply personal memory that left Yvonne emotional and gave listeners a glimpse into the strength, resilience, and authenticity that shine throughout her book.

We also talk about Yvonne's journey into stand-up comedy, her work with organizations helping employees navigate life's challenges, and the lessons she's learned throughout her remarkable career. It's an inspiring conversation filled with laughter, emotion, and meaningful reflection—all shared over a few beers, Brews & Banter style 🍻.
