Mz.Leading With Alana J

Welcome back, homies! In this week's episode, I got to pick the brain of a woman I dearly admire, whom I'm honored to call a friend, the lovely Ellen Haun. 

She is an actress, comedian, writer and co-author of the book "Cinderella and the Glass Ceiling: And Other Feminist Fairy Tales" alongside her writing partner Laura Lane. The book is a parody with a (spoiler alert) feminist twist, and she (me) is here for it (clap emoji, clap emoji)!

Ellen talks candidly about some of the absurd issues presented in some of our classic fairytales, and we get kinda real; so you've been warned. 
Then we go from real, to silly, and back again because that is my brand. 

In addition to all of her accomplishments as an actor and writer, Ellen talks about growing up with her 2 sisters (shoutout to Grace & Polly!!), her acting and creative trajectory, her mid-pandemic move from NYC to LA, and, last but not least, her hubby Drew! 

Tune in and go buy Ellen and Laura's "Cinderella and the Glass Ceiling: And Other Feminist Fairytales"

In Episode 3 I had the pleasure to sit down with Digital Media Maven, Host/Personality and my friend, Melissa Sweets.
Melissa talks about her experiences working in radio at La Mega and Sirius XM, the ups and downs of the entertainment industry, and her trajectory becoming the woman she wants to look back in 10 years and be proud of. 

She's also a super woman, aka a mom, and an incredibly loving, talented, passionate human being. 

There's a lot of laughs and a lot of wisdom in this one alike. Well rounded, ya dig? You can't box us in.

Episode 2, what it do?! This week, I am HYPE I got to sit down with Illustrator, Author, & my friend since 3rd grade, Alyssa Bermudez. Her story is one for the books, no pun intended. Cuz she be illustrating and writing books so...
