HELLO MY NAME IS CARLEN ALTMAN
[And I am a Freque(ncy) of Nature]
While I have made award-winning films, comedy, had my environmental journalism and inventions featured on MTV News and The Today Show and much more - there is no greater achievement than the fact that I have finally found inner peace (most of the time) and healing my lifelong anxiety, chronic fatigue, OCD and other “incurable” conditions which made my brain feel like a rigid prison.
The greatest lesson I learned in this strange journey (and then becoming a health coach) was realizing that the best humor, health and success come from being real, “GOING CRAZY” aka embodying Shame-Free Authenticity and Realness.
(Eating real food helps but being real food for thought on all levels is WHERE IT IS AT!)
It’s Time to Get Real (in a fun way)
Through comedy, storytelling, film and other art forms including my ministry and consoulting firm 1-800-EARTH, I am focused on Getting Real.
My mission is making art, inventions that challenge the status quo (for Good) and changing the world from a grounded yet brazenly authentic, eccentric and esoteric place.
(AND HELPING OTHERS DO THE SAME!)
A SHORT SUMMARY OF MY LIFE
In my 20’s, I made a variety of award-winning comedic and other creative projects but SOMETHING WAS ALWAYS MISSING.
(My soul!)
After the death of my father in 2o17 (Comedian Uncle Dirty - collaborator with George Carlin and Richard Pryor, among others), I had an existential crisis and realized how anxious and broken many artists are, including myself at the time. (cue sad trombone sound)
I SPENT 2017-2025 LEARNING EVERYTHING I COULD ABOUT DEFEATING ANXIETY AND CREATING ART FROM A HIGHER LEVEL OF CONSCIOUSNESS.
As I began to heal myself, my soul came back online and I learned that my anxiety was a messenger that I was not on my soul’s path - which is to build a NEW Paradigm of Humor & Healing.
Now, on the other side of Anxiety and Depression, as a coach and guide, I assist sensitive rebels in finding inner peace and making our dreams come true using humor and healing*, so we can make the massive impact we came here to, without abandoning ourselves, or denying our sensitivity or weirdness.
Healing and Humor Go Hand In Hand.
