We are back! In this episode you will hear why I was gone for.....ohhhh you can look at the episode guide. Sometimes life just kicks ya where the GOOOOOOD LORRDDD SPLIT YA and I've been taking care of my heart and my needs. And it's been a journey to say the least. I unpack that a little in this episode but I'm sure there will be MUCH more to unpack as I continue to figure out what my purpose is and what I want. And if you are struggling with that part of your life too... my love, you are not alone. I got you. Let's get through this together.

On this episode of Ohh, I’m Lonely! and the second episode of Pride Month (💖🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️) I am delighted to have my internet (now IRL) friend Miki Abraham-Grayson (who has since gotten married since we recorded!!) on the show. Miki (she/they) is an actor and self esteem/career coach. Currently they are part of the cast of the Tony nominated musical Shucked! She is a swing and the first cover for the “Independently Owned” Lulu. A force to be reckoned with onstage and off. I am so grateful to have them on the pod to discuss all things lonely and isolating being a first time swing for a brand new work. It’s a part of the theatre industry that doesn’t get discussed enough and is so vital to keep the production running. 

I know Miki is not alone on this journey of learning all that goes along with being a swing/standby/cover/understudy!  So thank you Miki for taking the time our of your busy life to spend time on the pod and for this beautiful conversation. Thank you #SwingNation for doing what you do to keep shows up and running. We would be lost without you!

You read that right! I am about to turn 34 and I only have been authentic to who I am for a little over 2 years now. It's wild but I am so proud of the women I am becoming everyday. Resilient. Soft. and Strong as hell.

Happy Pride Month my fellow queer bebes. I love you. Times feel scary and shitty for us, the hate is LOUD but we are LOUDER and PROUDER by just being ourselves. This is a safe place for you. I hope you connect with this episode and feel as much passion as I did while making it. 

And if this episode ruffles your feathers against the queer community...that's your problem and not ours. With tough love...There's the door...

I am SO DELIGHTED to have my best fweeend Lindsay Pearce on the podcast today. You know her from conquering the Broadway stage as the Green Girl in Wicked, and you can catch her flipping the bird and making you feel bad ass just as you are as Janis Sarkisian in the National Tour of Mean Girls and much much more.

Lindsay and I just sat, ate, cackled like old broads, and chatted all things lonely but also HOW FREAKING RICH LIFE CAN BE! And how loneliness doesn't have to be a negative aspect to our lives. 

I honored this time with my buddy so much and I'm so excited us to enter your ear holes and make you feel like you're there with us.

Cheers to all that we Loved, Learned, and Loathed in 2022!

After a solid soft launch of “Ohh, I’m lonely” we are summing up the year in a model closely related to many videos on my YouTube Channel. I  did this video for a few years and it just felt fitting to bring it back but in podcast form. 

I go through some deep, and seriously not so deep things that have stuck with me over the year 2022 and hopefully beyond. We are constantly growing and changing and evolving and I hope I continue to grow into 2023. 

This year my word was ABUNDANCE and boyyyyy did that word encompass many a BIG feeling this year.

On this episode of “OHH, I’m Lonely” we have the pleasure of hearing my friend, fellow co-host of our podcast Exit Stage Death, costume designer, and SO SO much more human being, Matty Limerick (They/Them). They sit down and tell us their TRUTH about the complexities and the medical industries over-simplification of fatness and it's connection to health when it comes to medical needs and attention, and the shame society put on bigger bodies to ask for the help they need without judgement. I felt honored to have Matty here for this chat. I know their words can connect with so many more experiencing these issues in life. 

You are beautiful in every iteration that your body experiences!

This episode fills me with conflict. It's heavy and celebratory all at once. A year ago today I came very close to losing my partner, the most important person in my life, Gabe due to a health scare called Dieulafoy lesion. (accoording to Google: an abnormally large artery (a vessel that takes blood from the heart to other areas of the body) in the lining of the gastrointestinal system). Today I have Gabe safe in my arms but I still live with the fear I had a year ago today when I almost lost him on his birthday and our wedding anniversary. People always check in with someone who has gone through a medical scare, and rightfully so but often times the family and loved ones who have been on the other side, the caregiver side, the ones who were awake for every scary moment don't get asked how we are healing?  We are told to stay strong and praised for it, but those voice go quite when we need to wrapped up in softness for ourselves. I hope I'm not alone in this. I can't be. So, if you are finding this and you needed it too, I'll do the scary thing and talk first. We can do hard things. 

Thank you to everyone who has helped,  sent prayers, sent vibes, gave money, lifted us up, and held so much space for us to heal and continue to heal. I love you. 

I hope this helps you in some way!

On this Episode of “Ohh, I’m Lonely,” I talk to my friend Emilie Leyes (she/they), actor, brain training & hypnosis expert for actors, creator of the Resilient Actor program and all around incredible human being. We chat about the excitement but strong sense of isolation that comes with creating a brand new path in your area of expertise. We also get into how certain roles for actors can be an extremely isolating experience and unpack a little bit about how to bring yourself back to your humanity when a role brings you to certain limits. 

I hope this helps you in some way! 

Make sure to check Emilie out on all social media platforms and their website!

I think if you do musical theatre or perform with a special group of people and then that times ends there is always a period of mourning. And without people around you to validate those feelings, it can feel pretty lonely. I wanted to chat about that today.
