I'm grateful for:
Unexpected detours
Loving a place at first sight
Joys in the park

Hoola hoops, music, old beautiful buildings, and luscious dessert.

Episode 14 - BRENDAN CONNOR

- March 25, 2018

"Being successful is largely about relationships that you cultivate with people...It's a business and people have to be reminded of who you are and you have to reach out to people...Life's short, the business is small, and your attitude has to be as on point as your acting has to be."

September is National SUICIDE PREVENTION Awareness Month... I TOOK THIS PICTURE

- September 29, 2022

September is National SUICIDE PREVENTION Awareness Month. I TOOK THIS PICTURE...I took this picture 12 months ago from the recovery room of the hospital where I spent 10 hours waiting to find out if my son would be okay. Waiting to find out when I could take him home. Waiting for answers and filled with a million questions that I didn't have the day before. The next year would only answer some of those questions and we are still "dealing" with it all. Hug your kids, tell them you love them even when they don't want to hear it. Listen, pay attention, watch their friends, be annoying about it. And pray. Pray to whoever you pray to and let's pray for each other. NAMI - National Suicide Prevention Awareness 1-800-273-TALK

"Living the Dream Acting...it doesn't matter how old we are, it doesn't matter what we look like, it doesn't matter if we've been in the game a long time or we're just getting into it. None of that stuff needs to hold us back from pursuing, and going after, and successfully creating those dreams for ourselves." Living the Dream during COVID-19: In this short catch up episode I talk about resources, some good news, defining the dream, and upcoming guests. Send in your questions!

Actress Post #4

- August 28, 2010

Part of the whole struggle of being an artist whose not already Tom Cruise is trying to pay the bills. Last year, I was one of the people who suffered through the unemployment crisis. I was a newly single mother and suddenly also found myself without a job - for 12 months. That was the most difficult time of my life. I had to seek help from organizations I never thought I would need. I lost my car, I had to visit a Food Bank, and if it weren't for the support of my family, friends, acquaintances, and even strangers, I might have lost my apartment and my mind as well. I know that despite the stress, struggle, tears, and additional grey hairs, that I was still blessed because it could have been much worse and still is for others in our country and around the world. Now for me, that time has passed and I've been really lucky this year. Not only did I finally find a day job - or perhaps it found me - but I found a position in an office where they cl...

Actress Post #7 - The Point of Acting Part 2

- January 29, 2011

Okay, I'll admit it. I'm having doubts. How can I continue to afford these acting coach lessons? How can I possibly have enough time to work on my craft, my music, my dance when I'm constantly chasing a four year old around, working a full time job, barely getting enough sleep, let alone getting all the laundry done, and so on and son on and so on, ad nauseam. I'm feeling 'overwhelmed' is an understatement! Maybe I'm crazy and I'm still trying to pursue a path that's closed its door to me many, many years ago. If I'm not performing now, and I didn't move to NYC at 26 when I had the chance, and I'm still dreaming about performing more than doing it then maybe I'm just a dreamer, not a doer, and I need to stop pretending that things are ever going to be any better, and just accept that this is as good as it gets! I'm pretty nice to myself aren't I? This was a rant I began on August 30th of 2010, and one I have mentally revisit...
