I’m back with Alevtyna Titarenko and we’re digging even deeper. Can you imagine returning to performing just months after having a baby? Neither can I, but Alya did it. She wouldn’t recommend doing that again, but she kept her body in such amazing performance shape that she was able to do it. 

When it came time to work on Wonder Woman 1984 however, she didn’t think she’d be able to do it. She’d just had a baby and had absolutely no desire to repeat the mistakes of her past. She shares how she got in shape for the role and what she ended up having to put her foot down on. 

It was her creative work with Cirque du Soleil that prepared her to contribute to WW1984 and she shares all about the creative process. 

Now she’s looking to help women realize that they too can reach their peak performance no matter their current physical shape. Listen in as she shares the rest of her story and what drives her to keep creating and trying new things.
