You must be a pretty good comedian if your roommate is Drew Carey, your opening acts are Rosie O'Donnell, Chris Rock, and Sam Kinison, and you’re sharing the stage with Eddie Murphy, Jerry Seinfeld, and Ellen DeGeneres. That’s how big Steve Rizzo was in the comedy world. But his story is about much more than laughter. In eighth grade, a guidance counselor told him he’d never amount to much. In high school, he was voted “least likely to succeed.” Instead of accepting those labels, Steve used them as fuel. With support from his brother, he earned two college degrees and returned to that same school — as a teacher. Then, one night in New York City, he jumped on stage during an open mic and completely ad-libbed a seven-minute set. The audience gave him a standing ovation. In a flash, his life changed. He went from classrooms to comedy clubs — headlining across the country and earning a Showtime special. But deep down, he knew there was more. The real calling wasn’t just to make people laugh — it was to help them laugh their way to success. Inspired by Tony Robbins and guided by faith, Steve left Hollywood behind to share a message about mindset, humor, and God’s sense of timing. Now, as one of the top motivational speakers in the country, he combines laughter and life lessons to help others find joy in the process and faith in the journey.  Tune in to this week’s episode of Chiseled for stories, laughter, and a few divine punchlines. You’ll walk away inspired — and smiling.
