About Improv Your Future
This podcast was born from our shared passion for helping people grow not just in their careers, but in their hearts, minds, and daily lives. Inspired by the powerful principles of improv, we explore what it means to live with courage, connection, and joy, even when things get messy.

Suzanne Lucas
Known worldwide as the Evil HR Lady, Suzanne has spent over 25 years rewriting what HR can be: compassionate, humorous, and human. Through her writing, training, and leadership, she helps organizations create workplaces people actually want to be in. In 2019, she dove into the world of improv and never looked back. With Tristan, she brings real-life wisdom and humor to every conversation.

When he’s not lighting up the stage with The Not So Notorious B.I.G., he’s coaching professionals from around the world to become confident, compelling communicators. For Tristan, improv isn’t just performance it’s a powerful life skill.


Suzanne breaks down how improv has reshaped her work in HR and why laughter might just be the secret to building stronger, more resilient teams.
