This week on The Salisha Show, Salisha Thomas shares the powerful and often humorous story of how she booked her first dream Broadway show without being the best singer in the room.

From arriving in New York City with nothing but a suitcase and ambition, Salisha takes listeners through the unexpected turns, the callbacks, and the moments that ultimately led her to Beautiful: The Carole King Musical.

In this episode, she opens up about:
• Why talent is not the deciding factor in many auditions
• The timing, alignment, and surprising moments that shaped her Broadway break
• The role authenticity plays in being remembered in a room
• How nerves, humor, and honesty all became part of her journey
• The deeper truth behind what casting directors often respond to

For anyone who has ever doubted their abilities or questioned their place, this episode offers perspective, encouragement, and insight into how doors open when you remain true to yourself.
