I'm so excited to have Liz Hawkinson on the podcast today!

Liz and I went to high school together and I totally had a talent crush on her at the time. She was a fabulous performer then and is still a fabulous performer now.

This is a very vocal heavy episode. We talk about singing both opera and musical theatre, finding identity in our sound, and what teaching voice has taught us. I hope you enjoy!

I'm so excited to share this episode of Isabella & Francesca Dawis!

We've all known each other for a long time and they are such talented actors, singers, and instrumentalists.

They currently live in New York City but are here in Minneapolis to be in Theater Mu's "peerless."

We talk a lot about their background in music and forging their own paths as individual artists.

Here we are! 2020! A lot of people love setting goals and intentions for the New Year and, honestly, I'm no different.

It's a time to reflect back on the previous year and think about how/if we would like to adjust a few things in the coming year.

Today I'm sharing with YOUR new goals! Thank you to everyone who contributed! I hope everyone had a wonderful New Year's Eve. Here's to having our intentions become reality in the New Year!

Today I'm excited to share this lovely conversation I had with Gabriella Abbott.

We talk all about taking time off from performing, burn-out, knowing the universe will take care of us, and struggling with choosing songs and monologues for auditions (who doesn't!).

I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did!
