#12 - Emily Fletcher, Love Yourself

50m · Published 07 Feb 15:02

This Valentine’s Day we’re talking about love, self-love that is, with Broadway actress turned meditation guru, Emily Fletcher. While performing, Emily found herself unable to sleep, turning grey in her 20’s and rocking in a corner from the stress of her job. Then she found meditation. Knowing that so many people could benefit from this practice she created Ziva Meditation, and has now trained over 20,000 people in meditation, written a best-selling book “Stress Less, Accomplish More” and is a mom to a 20 month old little boy. Join us as we talk about how we, as mothers, can’t pour from an empty cup, how being stressed affects not just ourselves but our families as well, and how practicing meditation is not only loving yourself but loving your life.

The business of show is a business of youth, especially for a dancer and figuring out your “second act” is usually a difficult road to navigate. With choreographer credits that include “Waitress” and the upcoming “Mrs. Doubtfire”, not to mention the 10 Broadway shows she was in before moving to the other side of the table, Lorin Latarro talks to us about what it takes to transition from performer to choreographer, how she is happier than she has ever been, and what it’s like to sometimes be the only mother on the “other side”.

55m · Published 11 Jan 05:00

What happens when you land “the show”, the Broadway hit that doesn’t close, and then you are in it…. For a LONG time. Join us as we speak with Lindsay Northen and Bonita Hamilton about just what it means to be in the same show year after year. Don’t get them wrong, they are beyond #grateful, especially for having a consistent job after becoming mothers, but we get down to the nitty gritty of what it feels like to be in Wicked and The Lion King for 12 and 15 years respectively. We cover it all; how they use their daily life experiences to keep their performances fresh, how they deal with missing their kids events (year after year), and how they keep from feeling forgotten.
